crosman 140

The short answer to your question is yes. However, there is a proven method from bringing these things back to life that involves a few steps. I have read several posts on another forum that discuss it in some detail. I am sure one of the smart guys will come along and advise you on everything you need to do. It's not that complicated if you have to reseal it. I love the old Crosmans. I just finished a 140 and have several more to put back in action.

JGAirguns will have parts and you can google for other sources. The 140 is fairly easy to work on. I've done three of the 140 series guns. They are worth the effort.

Kayaker,

Good luck with your surgery, I hope it's nothing serious. I'll look through my notes and PM you some sources for Crosman 140 parts. I don't think parts will be hard to find, at least I hope not, I'm about to need some 140 parts myself. Hopefully some other forum members will chime in with their favorite parts sources. I agree with Jonah, they are worth the effort. My first 140/1400 was the Sears variant, Christmas 1962 or 63..... I still have it, still shoots hard and straight, its never been re-sealed (KoW).

Mike Baker has ads on American Airguns if you need to contact him. He does quality repairs on all these old Crosmans and also sells some parts.

Lives in AZ near me, so I see him somewhat frequently.

I've dealt with Mike Baker and he is a first class person. Very helpful and knows his parts.
