Andy in NC's 760 project
That's one nice looking stock
Made some new furniture for my 760 project. Also added a new Leapers scope. Low budget fun: $30.00 gun (late model Crosman 760) $20.00 scope (Leapers 4 x 32 with illuminated milldot reticle) $1.00 3/8 x 4" iron pipe nipple (muzzle break) $4.00 3/8 x 2' x2' BC plywood (stocks) Still less than what I paid for my 1377

Joeairgunman's QB 78 Deluxe

Here's a 40 shot string with a 3000 psi fill shooting Crosman Premiers.
920-918-931-946-948-962-982-987-998-1000-1016-1019-1031-1044-1054-1061-1050-1063- 1062-1063-1065-1074-1070-1067-1059-1059-1043-1040-1029-1007-1004-988-966-959-943- 922-903-889-862-851
The tube was naturally replaced with a longer one that runs 1" short of the barrel with a new barrel strap assembly attached near the muzzle. A new custom made valve was installed and secured on both sides of the tube. It has the typical accuracy of the QB line.
This gun was made for me by Joe Bontrager who asked me before he started what MV range I was looking for. Then he sent shot strings as he was testing the gun so I could decide what I was comfortable with. He also sent pics as he was building it so I could follow what was happening.
Wish I could post some pics but I don't have a camera. Oh yeah, did I say it's got "reverse cocking"?

Calvin's neat little carbine

Sure is a nice looking gun.

here is a carbine that i threw together over the past couple of days with spare parts and mule gun parts. this one has a 12" .22 lothar walther barrel under a 1" carbon fiber shroud, overall length 31". did not get a chance to put it over the chrony today, but a fill of 2200 psi gives me about 12 shots. i will try to chrony it tomorrow, but by this weekend for sure. it is a 2250 tube with modified 2250 valve, delrin valve stem, secured valve with two 10 x 32 screws, mounted onto a crosman 262 stock, with DAQ .25 breech.
a question for those of you shooting jsb 16 gr. have you noticed any particular velocities that those pellets don't shoot accurately at? my talon is shooting arount 750 fps and doesn't group well with them, and my career shooting at the same velocities also does not group well with them. strangely, this little carbine also does not group well with them either, but my crosman 160 with peeps is awesome with them at 25 yds. maybe i need to try different velocities, but i need to get a new variety of fodder to play with also.

Mig Rod's 1322
all mods done by me, including the camo paint job, very accurate and quiet, hope you like it, feel free to post the pic in your sight.

Rob in NC's 2240 PCP
Shiny! Nice Lam's too
Next up…. And my BABY… is a 2240 PCP by Joe. This gun started out as an AWESOME 2240 built by Art Braden. The gun was perfect, but I am not much of a CO2 guy. Joe made a custom PCP tube, valve, and hammer for it. Bottom line is 20 shots at around 16-18fpe. More if I accept a wider velocity spread. Only thing missing now is a silver trigger shoe from Gil and the package will be PERFECT.

Rob in NC's QB
This one is getting around 30 shots at 22fpe. VERY consistent and very accurate. the gun was made by Joe Bontrager. The stock is a Richards Micro Fit stock that Rob finished....
