Just got the steel breech and new sight installed and have a quick question.
Does adding the new Crosman breech make the gun louder? Took a couple quick shots yesterday afternoon and could swear it upped the volume a little. Not the worst thing in the world, but I live in subdivision where it's not always OK to shoot something that sounds like a 22 rimfire.
So, my imagination, or did it get louder? I suck at physics.
BTW - I have lots of mod questions. Can someone point me to a good "search tips" post? Don't wanna bother everyone with the typical mundane newbie crud. Looking for trigger shoe vs. new trigger, front sight options, need to repair/reassemble an old Crosman 357, etc...
Thanks and very much appreciated!
I dont know much about that either, I would just go with what you think. Other guys will tell you. About the modding, go onto american airgun hunter.com by Jim Chapman, e-mail him(his e-mail is there) and ask him. He will either give you a book he made, tips, etc.
For the louder part go here

spend some time with the search in the upper right hand corner... it will be your best friend...
Thanks Beagleman & KevinP.
The ability to mod the 2240 was why I jumped on board. And of course my centerfire pistols rarely go out.
I've looked at the TKOs as well, can definitely see one of those in the near future.
db post....
DMAXV: Ya, what everyone else said, a TKO is a great investment. BTW, the .177 barrel and .22 barrels are the same O.D. so, I always get the .22 caliber TKO for my Crosmans even for my .177 calibers. That way, I can use e'm on either caliber :-* (the noise reduction is nearly identical)

I'm sorry, not seeing this. Is there a sticky for mods and upgrades under my nose that I'm too dumb to see? ???

Ha ... as you get older it's called remembering !!! :-*
I cannot think of any reason a steel breech would increase the report.
TKO muzzle brake is the way to go. You will think the pistol mis-fired or ran out of CO2 on your first shot.
