Among virtually every vintage Crosman model(s) I've owned have been a couple Model 70s. I consider the 70 to well represent Crosman's classic to plastic devolution of corporate/number-crunchers cost-saving measures; much like American automobiles of 80s and 90s vintage.
Consequently the Model 70 never commanded collector interest (or prices) due to the plastic-shrouded, pencil-thin barrel, and issues with the cartridge piercing lever mechanism.
You could probably find a replacement stock-attachment screw at Ace Hardware, but might not locate a safety in all Cyberspace. The rifle probably won't hold pressure without a complete reseal.
Fleabay is your best bet for selling it. Realistic value is $10 as is, $100 if complete, functional and holding pressure well. You might avoid the Fleabay cluster**** if/when another poster disagrees with my value assessment (that could be your buyer).

The screw is a 1/4-28 x .750 flat head screw. Or rounded but they are harder to find in 28 pitch. The piercing cage just sits between the action and stock when together.

I’ve had my model 70 since I was a kid and bought it new. I don’t think it’s a money maker so I never tried to sell it. It would take the right guy looking for one for me to sell it. Especially considering shipping costs. Just not worth it. I shot a lot of critters with mine as a kid.
