If anyone checked out my introduce myself they would have a bit of background on what this post is about. If you hadn't then here is a bit to get you up to speed. When I was a kid some 41 years ago I had a Crosman 760. My dad got it for me on my 13th birthday. I was pretty good with it for a smooth bore. I won 10 bucks off my older brother for shooting a fly of my target box at maybe 8 to 10 yards. I can still picture the legs splattered on the red fox target pinned to my box. (Never did collect the 10 bucks).
Well enough of the back story. I just snagged a vintage 760 off the Bay for a bit more then I wanted to spend but obviously not much more because I bought it. Low and behold it has a production date of 0576. Woo whoo! Almost like being reunited with an old friend. Oh yeah by the way the front sight is missing just like my old one. Now for a Weaver rimfire scope and mount. Just like the old days. I'm sure it will need a bit of refreshing but nothing I don't mind doing. Doing my happy dance!
