Possibly a new project gun..

When cruising around this morning and hitting up some local yard sales and happened to run across a deal I couldn't resist. Now I'm just wondering would I be better off restoring it and leave it stock or should I just start the upgrade process? The stamp on the side of the tube leads me to believe it was made May of '89.

It's a Crosman SSP-250 .177 cal.







This thing feels like it was built like a TANK. I have to clean it up and get the C02 cart unstuck so I can see if it even shoots.

I hadn't even heard of one before I saw this one. I basically payed the guy next to nothing for it, so I'm hoping that it isn't really messed up.

Clean it up and restore it. I think it holds more value in stock configuration. Parts diagram available from Crosman and plenty of information about the pistol on the web. Very good score.

Great find!!! You guys always get so lucky at these yard sales  Let us know if it still shoots!

A green seer??


I think I probably will just clean this up and leave it stock. It seems to be in great condition. With maybe one little tiny spec of rust..

Restore it to original!!! Great guns just as they are 


Excellent find. Wish I found it!

Grip frame had a lot less metal to it back when this was built. And the hammer and spring are way different.

Funny thing is I feel like the guy was just a one gun type airgun guy. He bought it a long time ago, shot it a few times then threw it in the closet. Then today he decided to bring his "old junk" out and get a couple bucks. I'm still smiling about how cheap I got it for and the fact that I almost had to push my 8 year old son away when the guy said how much he wanted for it. I saw my son race to pull his cash out and I was like "NO, IT'S MINE!!!" I'm in the process of cleaning it up right now and I can tell you that this thing is in immaculate condition. Ill have to get a few more pics when I get it back together.

I think that is a 2-stage hammer. Pull to 1st click for low power and 2nd click for high power.
