This started off as a $57 Crossman 2240 pistol. Crosman 22xx and 13xx pistols are kind of like a empty Baja chassis. There's tons of parts available and you pretty much build it however you like. Here's a rundown of the mods on this one:


Purchased Parts:


Weaver 2-6 illuminated mil-dot scope


CM 2260 extended tube (more Co2 capacity)


B&A aluminum extended breech


B&A BOSS Max Flow valve


B&A Bulk fill adapter (allows tube refill from a paintball tank)


GMAC alum barrel band


UTG weaver rail adapter


Magpul rail grip


MFT shorty bipod


Custom One-Off parts:


Wood for the stock end and grips done by me


Stock is custom built


Custom machined bolt handle


Weaver rail for a Remington 700 installed


Muzzle weight custom machined


All firing mechanism contact points are polished.

Here's my other one I just finished a few days ago. It's pretty much the same. I stole the stock off #1 temporarily. This one has a Blue Fork Design machined trigger frame which accepts any AR15 grip. I have a shelf full of AR15 grips. a Ergo bench style grip is installed on this pic. Also, check out the Burris tacticle scope. I originally bought it for one of my AR15's but I'm gonna leave it on the air rifle for now. Optics are top notch. Reticle illumination is also much better than most of my mil-dot scopes.





Here's a nice pic of the illumination on high. It goes way down to a very light glow for night shooting which is really nice. I have some $400 mil-dots that I can't even use after dark cause the lightest setting makes the recticle glow which obscures the target.

Here's a pic of my custom built weiner dog Mimi. She's in idle mode waiting for me to drop a bird and/or a potato chip.

Very nice work!

Those would be great fun...

Who makes those power bits? I cant seem to find a " reasonably" priced set of metrics.
