I want to put an 18" barrel on my 1322. So i need a barrel band. I would like a solid, easy to remove pivot pin as well.  I found a barrel band at ScopesandAmmo: http://scopesandammo.com/storefront/product_info.php/solid-black-anodized-barrel-band-for-crosman-13892289-p-424

I am not sure if is a good one or not. Is there cheaper ones out there that are better then this? I like dealing with ScopesandAmmo because they are reasonably close to where i live. But i did not see a pivot pin included or sold at their store.

Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

Look here:

I have one of these and it is first class. Comes with 2 pivot pins IIRC.

Edit - didn't see you were listing a Canadian store. Mike may ship to Canada.

Colkurtz,
The bands I saw on the page you posted are for the 22xx family of guns.  Your 1322 has a smaller tube that uses an INside plug that reinforces the pivot pin.  You need either one for the 1389 or one on the page JMJ posted.  The 1389 barrel band is plastic and only a few dollars and can be had from Crosman, Mellonair, A&B, and other places that carry Crosman parts.  Crosman barrel band, part # 788b011 &
Crosman barrel band screw, part #   781a012.
Alternatively, you can drill yours out to 7/16" (carefully) so the new barrel will go completely through it.  Also, you can trim the front sight off if you prefer to mount a sight pin on a muzzle brake.
Until I can afford a metal aftermarket 13XX band, I chose to use a 1389 plastic Crosman band so I can go back to the original setup if I want to and the cost was easier than drilling mine out and trimming the front sight off.
