    Crosman 454

    cea1960 you lost a gun??? It doesn't get any better with age! The warping at the bottom of the frames is common with earlier styles. Crosman bb-matic 454s were more reinforced in that area.

    Crosman 454

    jchoi54, sorry for late reply but I don't have any experience with the 451. You might contact Heather at JG Airguns. As far as I have researched JG Airguns has the biggest partst inventory of any airgun ever made and probably with the most experience.

    If anyone needs a little advice or help with a 454, give me a shout. I've done a few now and I'm addicted.

    [WTB] Crosman 454

    I prefer the older style 454s with the serial number on the bottom part of the grip frame. But will consider others. No BB-Matics. Paypal payment or in person. Please don't bother with the gift card scam or bitcoin scam. You can call or text 260 450 3158

    Crosman 454 not moving BBs after seal rebuild kit install

    wgregt their site is working again. Here's a link. The spring number is 577 079.https://www.jgairguns.biz/454-c-78_89_161/?page=all. That style spring is made for the newer style 454s with the dated serial number on the left side frame but will work with the older styles.

    That's weird, I just ordered about 12 parts from them for the 454. I will keep checking their site. Something's not right.

    wgregt, I just checked their site, not working for me too well right now. You have to search for airgun parts, then Crosman, the crosman 454. It will show a schematic and list of parts. You might get a hammer spring too. They almost have all the parts needed to build a new gun.I will post a link...

    Flintstone, oh yeah. Been there many times, can't remember the name of the bar in Van Wert. There was a place in Bronson MI I went to once, I think. Many moons ago, brother.

    wgregt, the trigger return springs in the 454s are weak. You might try replacing the spring or giving it a couple of turns to tighten it up, if you can. Replacement springs are available from JG airguns.

    I wonder if co2 cartridges loose some power over the years. I've got a few old crosman co2s and one seemed to be weaker than a new one. I have a large garage I use for my business and sometimes, I find screws, etc. on the floor. When the bbs start to outnumber them, I better be more careful !

    Davelarson & AlaskaAirgunner: thanks! What is a omega compressor? I like the 454s because they remind me of Dirty Harry's Magnum, even though that's a revolver. And thanks for your service, AlaskaAirgunner. Fort Wayne area not cold enough for ya ????

    Chuck-in-ohio: that ain't nothing. How about what Barry Goldwater said about turning North Vietnam into a parking lot??? Imagine if someone said that nowadays about the big sand lot overseas???

    Gerry52, thanks. Im old, impatient, and crotchety! I've been in this damn mess of the internet before Al Gore invented it!! On the subject of scams, seems a lot of them have gmail accounts, not sure why. The texts I got today, the guy sent pictures and wanted a crazy price. Then he mentioned...
