2289 to air?

[topher1266]

 Is it easy to convert a 2289 to co2 or hpa with say a 2260 tube? And if so what else might I need to complete it? Thanks

Lots and lots of money.  Why not just buy a 2260? Crosman has them for $125.00.

You would need a CO2 tube (take your pick between the 2240, 2250 or 2260), CO2 valve, end cap (actually, both end caps), barrel band, and hammer, probably $30 in parts from the parts department

A 2289 can be converted if you are so inclined, but not using 22xx parts. The tubes have different diameters, and as such the parts are not interchangeable between the two series. (2289 is basically the same as 13xx)

The easiest route is with a complete 22xx bottom end, or starting out with a 22xx to begin with...as mentioned.

Alternatively....remove pump assembly, thread the front half of the valve body 1/8" nptf and run a suitable pressure line from a remote bottle directly into the valve body.
