Well it finally getting close to another PFT match and I can't wait
I pulled out Snoopy to do a regular "check-up" as well as some more mods. The first thing I did was removed the tube stripped it, and re-blued it, this is the third part I have ever blued in my life and I think it turned out quite nice for CT cold bluing...
I took a picture of my transfer port and both seals, this is the O-ring I use to seal off the top of the transfer port, I only use them in combination with a breech band though as they will cause the breech to sit slightly too high without it...
For a change of pace I swapped out the lube on all trigger parts from Beeman 60% Moly to Napier Power Airgun Grease, will report back on differences...1st pic with Moly, 2nd with NPAG
So far:
-2nd Variant 1377 (rear cocking knob)
-RB Custom Target Grips & Super Pumper
-Leapers Bugbuster 3-9x32mm AO IR
-FTP Kit
-Crosman SBK
-Custom Breech band
-Custom bolt and handle
-Custom Pivot cap
-Custom 14.5" Crosman barrel w/11* target crown
-Customized Beeman muzzlebrake
-Woodward non-adjustable sear
-GMAC adjustable trigger spring
-Stainless Roll pin
-Stainless Grip screws
-Stainless Breech screw
-Stainless trigger shoe
-Stainless breech band screw
-SHCS throughout
-Free-floated barrel w/dual set screws
-Additional spring on top of trigger and washers beside to eliminate the "play"
Groups coming soon now that I have a chance to actually shoot the thing
:drinkers:
PS- anyone notice the mod I didn't mention? who's got the eye of a hawk? |

Thats not it, good guess though...
I have given 2 clues; 1) I has to do with "safety" (not the actual safety)
2) It is a uncommon aesthetic mod |

Thank You...
The bluing is made by "Outers" in the US...
I bought I bluing kit they make, comes with metal cleaner, bluing, sponges, steel wool and a cloth, cost me $14.99 (CDN) at Canadian Tire.
The bluing shown here was about 6-7 coats, rinsed and lightly buffed with steel wool between coats. After the last coat had been very lightly buffed I coated it in Napier Power Airgun Oil, let it dry for 4-5hours, then wiped it off and coated it again, left it very black & shiny |

Forgive me if I missed this(I've been away from the Forum for a while)but,
why did you name the gun "Snoopy"? Is it because Snoopy has a wood stock? |

Alright fine!!!
I filed and sanded down the safety roll stamp on the side of the tube, in front the 1377 roll stamp, and then re-blued the tube |
