hi..
had a play with a few bits & peices..
A crossman breech / 14" barrel...
diddn't take a lot of skill ,all off the shelf
componets this time...apart from the
bolt & brake..  
Think I'm going to make a stainless main tube
can't keep that polished steel one shinny...

Hi, Pete, That looks good,
I'm going to start working on my 1377
I was wanting a 18" but all they had was the 24" Barrel & I got an steel Breach for a scope & forearm with new seals .
But I'm torn between the long Barrel ? How long is good accuratecy & less noise?
One said 14" one said 18" one said 20" ??
& muzzle break where did you get your's it's cool,
   
can you shade some light my way?
thanks Ron

What I have noticed going from the std 10" to the 14"
I use to plink on 3 pumps...but now you have to use 6 pumps
min....longer barrel requires more air or yer get drag down the barrel..
So the longer the barrel I would say the more pumps that will be needed..

And that scopes to short...have to lean yer head to far foward to get the
correct eye relief....
