"Crosman came through with my order in only 13 days,which was great considering I was told 3-6 weeks"This is my first Crosman pistol I've owned since 1985..."I had a 1377,and 357",and briefly owned a "Beeman-Webley Tempest"in 1991......wish I still had that one..... I didn't think I would get back into air pistols again,but after seeing what some of the guys are doing as far as mods are concerned,and the simplicity of the 22xx platform,my mind was flooded with ideas,so the Crosman custom shop was calling.Since my 39th birthday is next Thursday,this is also a fantastic excuse.... Some notable improvements over the stock version,is a nice black oxide steel trigger that is much better than the stock brass one..the wider face is nice.It's adjustable...another plus.The fit,and finish of the walnut sportsman grips is perfection..... It's nice to have a supportive wife,to help me embrace my impending midlife crises,provided I don't play with my toys in the house.Oh C'mon!...it's not like I've ever considered, or used the hallway leading from the living room to the bathroom,as an indoor range or anything........and any rodents on the property are always completely safe..."the cat got the other one's I swear"... _________________   Posted: Thu Mar 18, 2010 5:02 pm BBgunNoob Veteran Member Joined: 18 Dec 2008 Posts: 327 Location: Pa 39th birthday is next Thursday, mines today we ordered our guns backwards im still waiting for mine lol   Posted: Thu Mar 18, 2010 5:06 pm ausher Member Joined: 28 Feb 2010 Posts: 96 Location: SWMO U.S.A. glad you finally got it! looks nice with the wood grips. i ordered mine with the same ones. i still havent heard from crosman if mine is done yet. what muzzle break you put on it? _________________ so far a stock 2240 and a 2300kt with a 14.6" barrel, walnut grips, with mods from www.mountainaircustomairguns.com - power adjuster, modified valve, and an extended bolt probe. optical- leapers 30mm tactical dot sight   Posted: Thu Mar 18, 2010 5:23 pm BBgunNoob Veteran Member Joined: 18 Dec 2008 Posts: 327 Location: Pa my 23rd bday, congratz on ur new toy   Posted: Thu Mar 18, 2010 5:39 pm Mark5043 Silver Status Member Joined: 12 Apr 2009 Posts: 1379 ausher wrote: glad you finally got it! looks nice with the wood grips. i ordered mine with the same ones. i still havent heard from crosman if mine is done yet. what muzzle break you put on it?

It just lost it's virginity with the first co2 cartridge.I had it sighted in pretty good,after 7 shots,but need to tighten her up a bit.After I play with trigger adjustment some.....all rats are through!! _________________   Posted: Thu Mar 18, 2010 7:42 pm ausher Member Joined: 28 Feb 2010 Posts: 96 Location: SWMO U.S.A. is there any play or slop in this new trigger design? _________________ so far a stock 2240 and a 2300kt with a 14.6" barrel, walnut grips, with mods from www.mountainaircustomairguns.com - power adjuster, modified valve, and an extended bolt probe. optical- leapers 30mm tactical dot sight   Posted: Thu Mar 18, 2010 7:49 pm Mark5043 Silver Status Member Joined: 12 Apr 2009 Posts: 1379 ausher wrote: is there any play or slop in this new trigger design? Overall the trigger is nice...there is some lateral play in the trigger,but can be fixed with a couple of Delrin shims.The break is fairly crisp,though somewhat gritty feeling.When I start modding tomorrow,I will polish out the sear,and trigger contact points.this should rectify the issue... _________________   Posted: Fri Mar 19, 2010 4:52 am Alstone Moderator & Site Supporter Joined: 01 Mar 2007 Posts: 4139 Location: Linconshire, ENGLAND Happy Birthday!
