I think I found something

[sandpiper]

Went to the farmer's market to unload some old stuff and as I'm walking toward the store I see a .22 Crosman hiding behind a bunch of military stuff in a display. I asked the guy if he'd be interested in a trade and the pistol now has a new owner. Still researching it but I believe it's from the early fifties. What can you guys tell me about the Model 112?

Thats a old Co2 bulk fill i think. The tank screws onto the front to fill the tube  Cool gun you got there

The Greyish Grips are off an 111 (.177)
The Correct grips for the 112 are the Reddish/Brown.

That's the pistol version of my 114 rifle. 1950-1954
I'm thinking it uses leather seals. If it leaks on you, fill the tip will pelgun oil and load some co2. The co2 will push the oil in. Then let it sit overnight with the muzzle towards the sky and try filling it again in the morning. Has worked for me a couple of times. Once you have enough oil in there, the trick is to keep it charged always. Those seals need constant pressure.

Sweet Score

I had some musical equipment that was sitting around forever. Two amps, a snare drum and a microphone. I paid nothing for the amps, $10 for the mic and maybe $45 for the drum. I was going to give it all away but thought I'd try to get a couple bucks at the farmer's market. He was asking $150 but I knew he'd take less. I got rid of my junk and he got stuff he'll be able to sell alot faster. Everyone wins

Thanks for the great link and the suggestions  I'll have to put this one on the back burner while I work on my 60's 760 project. Getting too many projects at one time. I'll put a drop or two in for now though.

Honestly, being relatively new to air guns and other than having one as a kid, I had no idea what I was getting. I knew it was old and the more exciting part was getting home, taking pics and showing you guys

You're going to love shooting it. It was suppose to be very accurate with more power than a 2240!! 
I just bought this little 12 gram adapter for the 114 which should also work to fill your pistol. Getting those old tanks filled are next to impossible these days, unless you make up your own fittings and fill from a Co2 fire extinguisher. Not worth the $ unless you shoot a bizillion rounds. Also, B&A has fittings so you can fill from a PB tank. All this said, filling from the original tank will give you the most shots and fullest fill. Was just a good design, that went the way of the dinosaur when the 12g became popular.

Thanks for the great info, that'll work perfectly. Did you have to drill and/or tap the end with the fitting or was it already threaded?

Comes just as pictured. If you want to contact him I can PM his email. I believe it was 32 bucks shipped.

1. Screw the nipple into the gun and have muzzle pointing skyward
2. Pelgun oil on cart
3. screw on cover over the cart until cart is pierced and now more flow is detected.
4. unscrew entire assembly quickly
note: you will loose a little unscrewing until the pin valve on the gun fully closes, hence...unscrew quickly.
