Hey guys, i am looking for a repeater .177 pistol that is quiet but also Match like accuracy. I was thinking about buying the Crosman 1720T but god i wish they had made it a repeater like the Marauder. I also have a FX Ranchero in .22 and absolutely love it and i am aware that hey have a .177 out but not looking to spend that much on a pistol when i could fork out 500 more dollars an get an FX Impact. I have lots of .177 ammo lying around and need something good that shoots accurate, Quiet, powerfulll and there are a lot of mods one can do on it. If you guys have any advice let me know

Do you got any pictures of what you are talking about? the BNM Breech sounds really interested, send me some links from here you got them..( Ebay, Amazon...etc ) Yeah the 1720t is an amazing gun for the price, i was also looking into the hastsan suppressed carbine gun but it is one ugly bugger. The Hatsan Sortie is also one gun i would love to try but again.....one ugly son of a...... Some more advice and pictures would help guys, thanks

No pictures or access to it right now, but I can say that you'll want to get a model with a Lothar Walther barrel first: 2300s or custom shop

Links:

BNM breech: https://www.bnmcustom.com/product/complete-kits-13xx-copy/ 
(Note, you'll want a shroud ~3" longer than your barrel if you go for one.)

Cothran tube: http://cothranmachine.com/
(You can also email Don and he'll make a tube whatever length you want if a 2260 tube is a little long. The 2260 PCP tube is pre-drilled to use a discovery valve. If you want to tune it even more, you can go for an aftermarket valve, hammer spring adjuster, [regulator?], etc.)

Eaglehorn, that's exactly what i was looking for a 1720t that could be modded for multiple shots. So the link for the BNM for the Breach will fit the 1720T? all i need to do is get a barrel for it? i just emailed BNM for this and probably will end up buying the breach for it. I had no idea there was stuff like this for the Crosman guns : ) awesome 


John, yeah i emailed your friend in regards to the ranchero and if he still has it i will see what we can do in terms of price. I already have a ranchero and i very rarely buy double of what i already own unless i am crazy about it. Thanks for he head up : )

No, that breech is set up for the 22xx series & will NOT fit a 1720T. The breech is secured is via four screw on the side vs the 22xx's one (much shorter) screw just behind the barrel. As far as I know, BNM does not have a 1720T multi-shot breech for sale. (Though, this does make me wonder how exactly the 1720T's breech is related to the m-rod since it's connected in a similar way. Maybe Crosman thought a protruding mag would turn away too many buyers for a .177 pistol and scrapped the idea?) The barrel included with the gun should not have to be replaced for it to work in a kit. If you find out that a .177 m-rod breech doesn't work (or any aftermarket kits are available), you still have a couple of options if you want to stick with Crosman:

1. Contact BNM or a similar body & voice your interest in a multi-shot breech on a 1720T that accepts .177 m-rod mags (or whatever .177 mag you want really). Ideally, they should be able to modify the stock breech.

2. Go down the rabbit hole of the 22xx series. This WILL be more expensive (speaking from personal experience), but you do get a nice list of contacts, a better understanding of your gun (as well as airguns in general), and something to be pretty proud of. Be sure to have a way to sell or effectively store your stock parts, though (they gather up fast).
