Crosman Crosman 1760 Sunday project

[holo07]

Pick this up here a the forum a few months back. Decided to add the steel breech I had in my parts box. Then was on the hunt for Williams peep sight, didn’t find one but had this Daisy peep from another project. Very happy with the results.

It looks good! A real shooter, too.

Do they make a metal trigger for it?

Cheers,

What distance was the target? If 50 yards, I will pay you homage.

A gen 1 Mrod trigger will fit these with a little bit of work. Basically needs some .035" shims on the screws between the trigger group and tube. HUGE IMPROVEMENT!
You would have to fashion up your own trigger guard, I don't think you can find the one's Norm used to make from DiscosRus.

Side note: I almost bought this rifle from the classifieds. Was going to modify it to pcp and make a little pesting rig. I had one I did the pcp conversion to, and cut barrel to 16" with a TKO. 14 fpe for 40 shots and was an absolute tack driver. I sold it(dumbass) when the newer, mag fed guns came on the market. Wish I had it still.

I had one I bought at a gun show for $50 and I did the same thing with it. I called it my $50 match gun. It was very accurate.

Man, you just slap a set of disco valves in there, an Mrod trigger, RVA with a .042" wire, and restrict the transfer port to about .109(7/64"), you got a quiet little 40 shot bird blaster.

I could pick 0ut a squirrel's eye at 50 yards with AA 8.44s.

You wanna sell it? Lol

Found mine on ePay - listed as, Crosman 22 not working needs seals. Could tell was nicely assembled 2240/50 with older Hy-pac adapter. Turned out 2B a 2250, 177 cal, and HS adj was max in holding the valve open. Still haven’t taken it down for a thorough inspection yet. Planning for it to be a peep sited plinker like yours
