Title: Crosman 111, 112 ,115,116
Post by: Crosshairs on November 26, 2013, 02:59:10 AM
I'm looking to add one or all of these to my collection. I have been wanting one for some time and think now is time to pull the trigger. I ask my brothers that own  or have owned one of them for your input.

Here's a good read on the repair and re-seal of that whole series. https://sites.google.com/site/hudsonhw77/home/airguns/crosman-bulk-reseal

The other thing to watch out for are the original Crosman steel tanks for co2. Many of those tanks were WWII surplus inflator tanks for life-boats and vests etc. Theroetically, a co2 tank that remains pressurized (uninterrupted) won't rust inside or foul the valves but... these tanks are always flagged as "danger" in the Blue Book of Airguns listings. Many folks seem to have updated the bulk-fill to a mini-foster fitting and modern paintball tanks etc.

Yep, pain to work on, but doable. Try a 114 on for size. They are fine shooters.
