? If something has been "remanufactured" the seller should plainly state this.
Where, exactly are you proposing to buy the product? If you have a link then maybe people can advise you of any experiences they have had from the same source. |

Welcome to the forum!
If I were in your position and location, I would consider finding/determining the 3 or 4 largest and most widely known distributors of Crosman airguns nearest your location. Larger distributors are more likely to have that contact information posted on the internet.
Once the 3 or 4 has been determined, contact them by post (mail), e-mail or telephone and ask if they do sell re-manufactured airguns, and if so, how they are identified.
Also, it may pay to be suspicious of an obviously lower price that is outside of the normal range and anyone who does not pay strict attention to and compliance with area import/export laws.
Often, larger retail distributors, are larger because they are more reputable than their "back alley" less reputable counterparts.
Please pardon the obvious question, but why have you overlooked Hatsan airguns? They are made right there in your home country of Turkey.
Hope this may be of some help,
Amigo |

??? That is a circular reference- and what constitutes a "back alley" vendor, exactly?
I personally take offense to that as a small businessman- just because an organization hasn't been in business for 20 years or isn't located across the street from a main supplier does not somehow make them "less reputable" than any of the largest players in their market. In fact, a very distinct argument that a smaller organization is paying more attention to their orders and communicating more effectively with their customers could easily be made.
In respect to densetsu's original question- if he won't name specific vendors he's not going to get any useful information. |

Eric:
That "back alley" reference was meant in the context of his (densetsu) area, not yours, so please don't take it personal.
I've spent time in the Middle East and Asia and am aware of some of the "marketing" conditions there. That is why I started with: "If I were in your location" which is given as Istanbul.
Hope this clarifies the situation.
Best regards,
Amigo |

Thanks for the info
First of all Hatsan doesnt make co2 guns and i dont want to use pcp or spring rifle
i have hammer spring and stock moded crosman 1077 co2 and i like crosman co2 guns ,actually i want to buy old "crosman model 70" but it havent produced anymore so i chose 22XX series probably 2260
secondly i ask crosman's Turkey distributer and they told me they havent any 22XX or 13XX series so i started looking online international dealers |

Maybe one of our moderators, Broommaster2000, with his European location, has working knowledge of some international distributors and might make a suggestion.
I do not own a 2260, but many of those who do seem to really like them.
Good luck,
Amigo |
