More bad news ...2260 is history!

[arkmaker †]

Ahhh....Punks! Crackheads! Bangers! (in US speak). Down here in the South US, we kinda think of white trash in a little different way. Even the wealthy have a tendency to go a little WT on us every once and a while and ahhemm, well I've been known to wear a t-shirt from time to time (colored with a pocket, ofcourse). 

Well, atleast some of them hold airgunning in high regard, there is a positive outlook on the subject!

[NorthStaR]

Yeah, I thought about it after posting. It's a stereotype, theres always exceptions!

But STAY AWAY from Burberry, a classic brand scarred forever as CHAV camo!

Just over on the Green and read that the 2260 is not being made any more 
Anyone else hear this? no longer on PA's website (2260SE is still there). Also says Out of Stock on the Crosman site.

just order in all the parts you need and build it its that simple costs you 2 times as much but if you want it youll pay for it, now here is the bad part as each gun is discontined you got 7 years then 2 things happen either no more parts as all or they will cut off the most needed parts to keep it going but fear not there are guys out there liike me and other that can make those parts and many others and keep them going forever

Only 3 Co2 rifles left on the Crosman website;

1077 (not the AS)
2260 SE
2250 XE (The Outdoorsman)

That's it folks! Looks like Crosman is getting out of the Co2 business. I'm thinking that the 2260XE will go next when supplies run out! So sad, cause I love Co2's!!!!

this is what crosman is trying to stop by changing their design.they didnt even let their repair shops know they were dropping certain guns where as in the past they were the first to know,from i have been told by 2 different sources that have nothing to do with each other.

[NorthStaR]

1377x, do you mean Crosman is trying to stop the third party companies by altering their designs more regularly?
Or to stop the spare parts being available? Or am I completely missing the meaning! 

And 7 years for what airsmith282?

Sorry long week syndrome, brains needs de-fragging! I can just about ID an apple at best!

I'm thinking that it is US law that a manufacturer needs to carry spare parts for 7 years after they discontinue a model. I thought it was 5 years and wasn't aware that it included guns! Which is a good thing for us!

Oh OK cool. That is good news! 

[catapult]

in my quest for as 2250 parts i was told by the parts suppliers that crosman doesnt want  people building
guns from parts thats what crosman told them.
i dont know about the laws.crosman does have repair stations they didnt let get parts.so wheres the 7 years there
any need an as tube ? im done with that project

[AZAG]

I thought that seven years rule only applied to cars or other big ticket items.

[ayerstg]

Just cars, IIRC.

This thread is over three years old.  They are available.  I bought one when the came out last year (2013) and heavily modified it.  It's a great gun.

The guest were looking at this thread, that is why I brought it back up. Just for those that did not know. Even on GTA, they did not know that is was back.
