 a Crosman Custom Shop 2300.
 .177 cal with a 10" barrel.
 Actualy since the pic i switched the brake for a fiber optic sight for a 2250, since the sight picture was much nicer.
 They realy should add that to the selection, it's basicaly perfect with the LPA rear sight.
 (The blue grips are ones i painted myself a while ago)
 
 And below a Daisy Powerline 1200 bb pistol.
 It's a repeater with a 60 shot magazine, you push the little lever under the forarm forward to cock. co2 goes in the grip.
 It's actualy quite accurate for a bb pistol, i like it.

Hey, Joben,

Nice pistolas.  Maybe you can answer a question for me.  I was playing around on the Crosman site the other day, and put together a custom 2300 pistol in .22.  Is the price they show just for the custom parts, with the price of the gun additional, or is it the total cost?  If it's the latter, why would anyone buy a stock 2300?  The .22 long barrel, shoulder-stocked, with other goodies came to about $100!  That's less than a stock 2300S.  Guess I know what pistol I'll be getting soon :-)...

The price it shows in the custom shop after you've picked the last item is indeed the total price, base gun included.
Mine was about 120, with a shoulder stock (not pictured) and all the stuff you see in the pic...

It's realy not a bad deal, actualy slightly cheaper then starting with a stock 2240 and hitting up their spare parts department, and certainly more convient.

The 2300s is expensive  because it's got a several goodies you can't get in the custom shop...including most recently the expensive willimams sight which has mysteriously disapeared from the shop...

 writing this post had me looking at the options..i just built the neatest little compact .22
...GAH can't afford to fool around with that again for a little while...

Thats the price of the completed pistola Dave. I put together one also and it is quite accurate even with open sights.

14" barrel with grips and steel breech
