Do yourself a big favor and search this forum for all the start up tips you should do before using your compressor for the first time. There are tons of them, from how to fill the water tank and radiator, adding led lights, hour meters, etc..... I've had mine almost 2 years and it's been working...

I used distilled water mixed with "water wetter" in mine and it still looks just like it did the day I poured it in. I have almost 4 hours on mine. That's not as much time as others but it's worked flawlessly each and every time. Thx Ray

So I have this old broken crosman legacy 1000 which is just a updated 2100 pumper. I took out the pump tube and piston assembly today, got to tinkering with it and figured out how to put a factory size 1377 valve into it. Had to drill a relocated exhaust port hole and the hole for the front grip...

So a 140 pump tube is identical to a 362 tube? Thx Ray

Is that a 362 build? I really like the looks of a modified crosman. Would this be considered a carbine? Thx Ray

If its using the 392 pump lever it should be pretty stout. Looks like the 362 could be tuned up for way more power. Thx Ray

Is the 362 harder or easier to pump than a stock 392 ? Thx Ray

That is cool. Thx Ray

So, dumb question. For those of you who own and have used a 362 for hunting, what kind of FPS or FPE do you get with a factory stock gun using 14.3 pellets and 10 pumps? Thanks Ray

Thank you sir :)

Guess not. Just checked and their is NO parts manual available at crosman for a 362 :(

Good explanation, sounds like it would be easier to just order some 362 parts and build one from that. Thx Ray

super nice build. Wonder how hard it would be to source these parts to build one like it? How hard was it to get the valve and breech to mount onto the 1400 Thx pressure tube? Ray

I've hunted with all my pumpers at some point. A 1377 with a disco barrel took many a squirrels. My benjamin 392 is deadly out to 40 yards with just 6 pumps. It uses a 2moa red dot and 14.3 cphp's. My latest pumper is a 1322 carbine with just a 14.5 inch barrel but has a pinned and modded valve...

Not knocking springer's or pcp's, I have many of each myself. But there is a lot to be said for grabbing a modded 1377 all wood and steel carbine and a tin of pellets for a whole day of shooting. No compressor, carbon fiber tank or heavy spring guns to lug around. Plinking and small game hunting...
