Other Show your CO2 pistols
- Thread starter Septicdeath
- Start date
Pluses for conversion:
- Not as temperature sensitive as CO2.
- Many more shots per fill.
Cons for conversion:
- Need to tether a hose and tank to shoot. (Note this can be done with little 8-13ci tanks, but still somethine extra to lug around.)

A lot of things, I made a little Topic about it: https://www.airgunnation.com/threads/converting-co2-revolver-to-pcp.1304347/
Already converted my Schofield 6"Upvote 0

I thought PCP described a self contained unit, as it PreCharged Pnuematic. Those look like HPA, which requires a tethered tank.

Little Fathers Day present I been tinkering with. I been doing a little lathe and 3D printer work for it. It's a work in progress for now. I really love to modify these Crosman airguns. Be a shame if all that get's changed under the new management.

My good old 1322 built by BnM years ago. They were one of the first to offer a breech that accepted magazines.

I used to have a few co2 pistols that I shot quite regularly then got out of them. My interest is peaking again in replicas. I picked up this Baikal Makarov a couple years ago. Not because its a great shooter. It’s probably the crummiest air pistol I have ever used. I got it since they are actually produced on the same lines as the 9x19. To me its not a copy its an actual makarov purpose built to be a BB gun. The bakelite PMM grip was hard to find.

I got the same one but with the black grips, a few years ago. Terrible accuracy with BBs, but I only shot a dozen BBs through it once I discovered it had a rifled barrel. Since then I’ve only shot pellets (remove mag, insert pellet, reinsert mag) and the accuracy improvement has been absolutely dramatic.
Now, I have to rack it back and drop the mag for every pellet I place into the breech, which means that slide gets moved a lot. So I’m pretty liberal with greasing that slide. Some other CO2 guns I have are made of a sort of zinc alloy and the slides wear out in no time, no matter how well maintained. Not the Makarov … it’s all steel and just as tight as the day I got it. And I’ve put thousands of pellets through it

2250 spitting 14.5 at over 530fps. For 12 shots on a cart. Being moded to hpa soon. And all the guts going to a 2240.
A few stubbies I threw together.

My .22 Crosman Mark l with a shrouded 8” barrel and all the trigger components were polished. the bolt probe was modified for better air flow along with the valve being lightly worked on too. The grips are from the late R&B and the aluminum knobs were custom. Right now it has a BSA red dot on a 3D printed scope mount.

I have got an opportunity to buy a Crosman C40, it has a miss-fire fault, but I have had a Crosman Kimar CK92, which is mechanically very similar, and got that working reliably.
What does the collective wisdom of the forum have to say on this allegedly 'rare' pistol?
Edit: If I do buy it, this will technically be pre-showing one of my co2 pistols...

I had one of these several years ago. It was accurate, fairly quiet and was enjoyable to shoot. Hopefully you get it working properly. The casting was top notch. Be very careful taking it apart it may be best to tear it down in a clear bag. Its been a while since I took a co2 pistol apart.
