Crosman 2240 XL Rat Catchet PCP

[GBGUNNER]

 

With the arrival of the CROSMAN 2240XL I'm interested in a Rat Catcher again with the availability of the 5 &10 Shot magazines, shoulder stock, and I presume the high pressure air conversion previously available will still work, plus an 18/ 20" barrel threaded for moderators. Availability of open sights or red dot or scope. The custom shop used to sell the rat catcher, it would be great if crosman would offer it again with all of the above options as Co2 or high pressure air, open sight or pic rail, rifle barrels in 3 lengths with 12x 20 thread. I thought I saw an after market fiber air tank with regulator to supply the correct air pressure to the 2250. What do you think, have you noticed any other options?

Here are a few options I would expect plenty more are around though.

If you are going to mod the 2240xl to be pcp with a magazine, why not start out with the marauder that is already pcp, magazine, shoulder stock and longer barrel? It seems like an expensive way to get there when there is already something available that you are describing.

Spending wads of cash in modding Crosman guns are actually fun for some folks like Bio.

Been there too but the fun went away after I added everything up. It's a learning experience. That's what makes everyone human. Now even if you keep on dumping wads of cash like $3000 into a $50 gun then it's still cheaper than what a mental institution (insane asylum) would cost.

yup, it is fun. They are our adult lego sets! Thanks to Airguns the pandemic hasn’t made me completely cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs.

The modding and working on things is, to me, just as fun as using them. I totally get it

+1 on the 2240 modding = its almost an addiction. =)



So yes GBGUNNER, we are your 2240 enablers! Post up details and pics as you build.

Still a work in progress, my regulated titanium chamber-tube conversion has apparently made it to America, but also is apparently delayed by the massive blizzard. The Hi-Pac HPA conversion gizmo isn't working out so well (and my Benjamin pump needs overhaul); so this custom is in limbo until aforementioned regulated chamber-tube conversion arrives.

Hi-Pac not sealing? I have some extra seals the HiPac dude use to sell, but - you're movin on -

Will be waiting for an update, looks some glare in the pic, is that an Exclusive brand breech?

Those Corcoran grips rock!

.... my regulated titanium chamber-tube conversion has apparently made it to America...

What manner of wizardry is this you speak of? My Google-Fu is weak...I get nothing when searching for this.

???



Just curious. =)
