The Ultimate Crosman CO2 pistol

[crossliner]

Lol! My bet is that the .177 will beat the .22 in accuracy

My adapter from Poland arrived today, so I was able to mount the Donny FL Tanto.

Fit and finish of the adapter muy exemplary  It looks like a deep black nitride with no anomalies whatsoever but it is heavy being all steel!

It is this one and has an undercut, so my barrel is still free floated:

Took exactly 14 days to arrive to my end. It stayed at the customs (NY) for 6 days.

I will order another one for my 2400KT 

Same target, same 3 pumps, same 15-yard distance, same pellets, etc. as when it was unsuppressed and the POI did not change. I did 3 shots on this one but it already had 4 existing ones:



It is almost complete. The Magnum Airpower Super Sear and Don Cothran trigger have both been installed. The only thing lacking is the ATI cheekrest, which I ordered last night

Barrel is in, test fired, feels and sounds better already!

PS. I replaced the square-drive screws and screw under rear sight with alloy steel black oxide socket button head screws (1/4, 7/16, & 3/4) - perrrrfect! I hate those darned square-drive screws!

Next play-money = 2nd Fastfire III for this sweet lil pistol.

Then

Dead squirrels

[The Zen Master]

First 5-shots .22. Again I did not have to adjust the rear sight to get on paper! 5-yards, standing, 2-hands leaning on a door frame. Old eyes, wrong glasses, shaky hands!



I like it!

Second 5 +1 (previous 5 were RWS Superdome 14.5g)

1st shot was exactly at the top of the black 6-ring to verify on-paper with new pellet (RWS Meisterkugeln 14g). Next 5 shots were aimed dead center of white 9-ring - yes, 5 shots! 5-yards, standing, 2-hands, leaning on a door frame.



I was right, again... With a Fastfire 3 on it, it will be a squirrel-killer.

Nice job  ...   

[The Zen Master]

Thank you!

Now I have a bunch of left over stuff I have to figure out the value of!

[BillK]

Whoa!!! You shot a great group!   Definitely a good Crosman barrel.  You won the barrel lottery, for sure.  Enjoy.....

[The Zen Master]

Thank you Bill! And thanks for all the encouragement

[The Zen Master]

I cannot explain this...

5-shots, 7.5 yards (farthest I can get indoors), sitting, 2-hands on a stack of towels for a rest...

I am going to try again tomorrow and see what happens. If some shots went through the same hole, I need new glasses.

I had to put my Fastfire 3 on it.

5-shots, 7.5-yards, sitting, resting on a stack of towels. It definitely likes those RWS pellets.

[The Zen Master]

I crossed my fingers and hoped it would shoot the RWS 14.5g Superdomes that I prefer to hunt with because they work so awesome in my RWS 34.



Real happy with this air pistol - i.e. My Ultimate Crosman Co2 pistol!  I might have to sell my P1322C.

Just a little caution.  If you install a Marauder pistol trigger assembly, you will also need to change out the hammer.  Be sure the replacement hammer has a notch for the little breech screw in the 2300KT steel breech.  If the hammer doesn't have a notch cut in it, it will hit the screw and won't fire, and it will damage the screw.. FWIW

Thanks Mulie,

I bought my triggers from Alliance Hobby - both came with new machined hammers that are appropriate for each type (American Classic pumper vs. 2300KT with hidden screw steel breech). I do not know who else sells this stuff or makes hammers but I am 100% satisfied with their service.

I tried to shoot a 1-hole group yesterday and I got close but I guess my old eyes aint what they used to be...

But still fun to shoot groups, and squirrels...

Group on right is close, group on left I adjusted the Fastfire down and probably got a little lazy on the trigger. 5-shot groups.
