What I did today.

[TraderJoe]

Soooo I decided that while I am waiting for my CCS 2300KT to arrive I ordered a 1377 from Walmart today; it will be ready for store pickup Thursday. 
I will now have something to "plink" with and do a few mods, i.e. steel breech, a longer barrel, shoulder stock and a scope/red dot sight. And who knows what else down the road.

Modding is only limited by ones wallet, open it wide for the most fun

  So TRUE!

One of the first things you will notice is the trigger on the 2240 &/or 13xx guns.  The triggers & sears need some smoothing.  There are U Tube and many posts on the web regarding the procedure.
One of the best trigger springs I have found is the one Roy @ Mountain Air makes/sells.  I have them on all of my carbine  22xx & 13xx guns.  Most of my pistols have the 1701P type trigger frames as they are better but cost $35.+ more than the trigger smoothing & spring & guide.
I just got a CCS gun and had not remembered how much in need of trigger work the basic Crosman is right from the factory.

Yep, that's the first thing I will do when I get this baby...get out the smoothing and polishing gear (Dremel).

Is there no end to the mods for those?

Well my order is in at Wally World, but I have changed my mind on the aquisition. After pondering this decision and calculating costs, I realized (which I already knew in the back of my mind) that I can order the 1300KT from the CCS with steel breech, the stock I want, a longer barrel, muzzle brake of my choice  and no optics, as I have a couple suitable scopes, for about $15 more than just what the stock 1377 cost me ($49 + tax and adding  the steel breech mod ($46-$49).  Only downside is the waiting.

 The wait might be a little longer than it normally is. I ordered my KT2300 on the 5th of July. I must confess that I failed to hold out on their special. I called Crosman customer service on the 10th of August because they had sent me two e-mails to rate my recent purchase. I was informed that they had received more orders than expected. Good news is I'm still in queue. In hindsight I shouldn't have waited to order.

I already have a 2300KT on order so will wait on the next "holiday discount" to order the 13xx and/or 2400KT.
