You guys are to much. I've been reading these threads and doing a lot of reading up on the 2240. I have a 2240 on order along with a steel breech and RP valve from Alcemy Gunwerks. After looking at all the cool stuff you guys put together I'm thinking I should have ordered two 2240s because now I think I want to build a carbine too.
I can't wait till the pistol and parts get here. I think it's going to be fun.

We are addicted by 2240. But every time when we building 2240 little by little then get excited.

I just got a 2240XL! Super excited to build off a great start. No clue where I'll take it, but this must be my 5th or 6th 2240 build.

Got the internals all slicked up, trigger job, valve port and polish with angled port, lighter valve spring and hammer spring, ice maker tube transfer port, RPA, red dot, and extended bolt probe. Almost had all the parts for the marauder trigger conversion, only missing the bolt sear. Shoots great with the TKO and getting about 475 fps with CPHP. Been shooting my son's plastic golf balls out to 15 yards and watching them fly!

nice!
Hey beejwest I have a gift for you and might be your lucky day.
I have an extra exclusive multi breech for free for you. You just need to pay the shipment fee.
Let me know if you want.

If you want I will send it to your house and soon as you received the breech send a check in letter mail.
If you don't like to send it. I am fine with that too.
I just like to help you out.

The Crosman 2240/2250/2260 are customizable to the extreme. Limited only by your imagination and wallet. A few folks may give you a rash about dropping coin on 2240. And they're right, it's an indefensible argument but such are all hobbies. =)
So here are a couple of 2240/2250 platforms that morphed into 2260 carbines. fantastic and fun shooters. I prefer red dots as most of my shooting is out to about 35 yards (and maybe 50 yards from time-to time). First one started out as as 2250 back in 1999. Converted to HPA a few years ago with a Benjamin/Sheridan 2260 tube from MagnumAirpower. The 14.6 Crosman barrel is an absolute tack driver (I don't think they make them like this anymore).
-Steel breech. -discovery spring.
-Extended probe.
-MagnumAirPower deadblow hammer.
Cothram Machine spring aduster.
-Discovery Valve.
-HUMA (90bar)
-MagnumAirPower fill port/air guage.
-6.5" TKO
-P-Rod trigger assembly.
I'm getting about 42 shots at 710 fps with 15.9s and same count for 14.3s at 750 fps.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Second, looking almost identical, is a 1760. Ordered earlier this year as a Crosman Custom Shop 2400KT with the 14.6 Lothar barrel.
-MountainAirCustom 2260 tube.
-Challenger hammer adjuster.
-Extended Probe
-Stock 2240 spring
-MagnumAirPower dead blow hammer
-Discovery Valve
-HUMA (90 bar)
-Hillairgun Hi-cap gauge port (tapped about 3-inches from fill port).
-5" TKO
-P-Rod trigger group.
Getting 50+ shots at 795 fps with 7.9s and 50+ at 775 fps with 8.4s.
I make no claim to be an expert. I'm more like an enthusiastic novice on the 2240. From my perspective the biggest reason to mod a 2240 is the simple joy of "tinkering". I enjoy researching, impulse buying, and then modifying "almost" as much as shooting. =)
The 2240 is one of the best after-market supported platforms out there. Post-up pics and details as you build.

.25 PCP DAQ upper
Who built this stock and are they still made?
Got it from Steve Corcoran when he first started out. Still making them as far as I know. I think this is him.
