RIP... The Crosman Coined (Brass) Trigger is now obsoleted.

[Davio]

Just found this out today.  I am grieving.  I love these triggers as they polish, vent and shape very well for my purposes. 

Whilst ordering another few dozen I got the news.  And I had to ask if these means forever.  And I heard the dreaded words "Pretty much".

These were stamped / pressed... then worked additionally at the end of the curve (as I see variation in that area only from trigger to trigger). 

All I can say is:  Some 3/16" brass flat stock will be ordered.  I will not be denied the precious.

I know they have not been on production guns for a year or more but surprised that Crosman had that much stock in reserve or more likely, left over.  Seeing the brass trigger was always a sure sign of an older gun.

It was and still is a great trigger and will be sorely missed.

crosman has a lot of old obsolete parts laying around that most of the time they don't even know they have
a bunch of as2250 parts were bought not long ago actually around the time this thread was posted
i bought enough parts to build an as2250 at half the cost of a new one but i sold the parts and made a nice profit after reading all the problems with sealing these guns have

[arkmaker †]

I still want an AS2250XT 


Someday!

had i known that i would have posted the parts here you know on the yellow or aa classifieds hard to get parts goi in minutes. i had everything except the valve but i was going to use a bna boss as valve
i might still be able to the parts except the bottle adapter which can be bought @ crosmods and the valve which bna has and you can mod you own stock
i'll look into that tomorrow

So true. I worked at Crosman when those triggers went by by  Now they are stamped steanless steal triggers.

There is a funny story behind that (stamping triggers), but unless you worked there, ya wouldn't know what the joke is/was.

I only three of them left they came out of guns that i did mods to or changed the trigger frame.

I have 3. Thank you Davio. One is in my 1377 phase II I'm working on right now. Look close and you will see it shine and a Davio brass safety and a Davio trigger shoe. .

The new trigger does feel pretty nice. The worst was back in the late 70s when they tried plastic.

[mudduck48]

This gun was made in Sept. 96 and it had a plastic trigger in it. That is why I changed it.

You would think someone would make/sell a similar CNC copy of it.

Edit: Heck, even something close but with a wider machined-in shoe.

That roller trigger on ebay, that's our Davio.

That roller trigger looks awesome, unfortunately not in my budget right now.
