    Why would you sell?

    I try to give mine all equal time. Reduced to shooting indoors into a trap, (during Winter) I have to wait for the rest of the apartment building to empty out. That's only 3 other tenants. And, sometimes I do part with something and dearly miss it after, and end up looking for another.o_O

    Why would you sell?

    I look for them at yard/garage sales, in any shape, even parts, as I like to tinker on them, try to bring them "back to life". That being said, we live in an apartment, so there's not a whole lot of room. Both retired, and by no means Rich, it usually comes down to "needs before wants". As I...

    Crossman 400 repeater

    Had this one apart many times, bringing it "back from the dead". My buddy found it cheap at a yard sale for me. Finally got it right. Finicky with pellets, it only seems to like Daisy Wadcutters. I should ad the linkage is worn a bit, maybe why it's fussy to load.

    Slavia 618

    a number of years ago I found one at a yard sale,. The old man said he had it as a kid. Got it home and got it apart. As a kid, the former owner had cut nails into tiny pieces and used them for pellets. A bunch of them worked into the piston tube, the leather piston was full of them. I made a...

    Average age of shooters

    Had some brand of lever bb gun when I was a 10 year old. Not RR. When I hit 60 and went through a number of lay offs at the shop, I found a well worn Crosman 760 at a yard sale. It needed lots of love. All down hill from there, B3's Crosmans, QB's . 69 now, and finding them and trying to...

    need advice on Crosman 1077, new to me

    Yes, they claim it's semi-auto, but it is a revolver type action. Trigger is doing a lot of work. Someone makes an adjustable trigger for it. It helps. I have one on my "converted" Benjamin Wildfire.
