If there are any other (like me) newbs looking for inexpensive optics for 13xx pistols, here's what I discovered today.

Crosman 459MT 2-Pc Intermount, 3/8 Dovetail

Tasco .22 Rimfire 1x30mm 5 MOA Red Dot Riflescope

$46 delivered, from Amazon.

I slapped them on a 1322, and it's like a new world!  I zeroed the scope at 10 yards, and am getting sub 1" groups with ease.


Crosshairs

Sounds like a good deal.

And a folding stock! That's too cool. ;) ;D

Looks good, but watch that barrel rotation with a "top-heavy" set up hooked to it. Your stock, plastic breech doesn't hold the barrel with a set screw, only the transfer port keeps it from rotating and that's sometimes not enough.

It's pretty easy to add a set screw to the plastic breech and that makes a world of difference also

+1, I'll bet it's almost self threading in that plastic breech, is the barrel already dimpled for the set screw regardless of what gun Crosman puts it on?

The intermount is only temporary.  I'll be replacing the breech as soon as I decide on which one.

While the intermounts to offer a solution, I think they should be temporary till you get yourself a better breech solution.  Which it sounds like you are already pursuing.

I've never wanted something so useless in my life.
