That's a Crosman 2260. .22 caliber usually hits between 9 and 12 fpe depending on pellet and tempature (co2). Its another that's been discontinued. I love it. It's very accurate and easy to handle. Pretty much a wood stock version of the same action you find in a 2400 or the 2250. I got it around 2007 I think.

Cool arrow.... Laughing

The infamous QB78 is a near perfect clone.

I've seen one of those but never shot one... It does look the same.

Good info!
Hmmmm. I been thinking 'bout a dedicated CO2 unit like this to practice target shooting with. Either this or get all the stuff to put CO2 into my Disco. The price prolly be about the same either way.

Thanks. Like I said, I need to take some new shots. I've added a couple since I took these pictures and I didn't put the hand guns in. I'll post them when I get them taken.

I know I love to see other people's collections. Cool

I know I like to see other people's collections too. I need to post my collection on here too. I think I have in bits and pieces, but never all at once. I don't mind, it gives me more to post. Wink

I found it was really not too bad for $$ to get a C02 setup. I believe I paid $40 for a filled 42oz bottle and the short hose and valve was $19.99...This was at the local paintball shop

Those QB78/79s are awesome shooters. I got a QB79 recently and I gotta say that I love it! I need to get some pictures up of that one.

I got both versions; .177 and .22 of the TF66. Those chinese rifles have very good trigger assembly, smooth and predictable. Sometimes I wish they were a little heavier to control rifle movement, and if they had a rail or at least a mount to put one, for a bipod.

Overall, I have done maintenance on them, you cant really go to crazy with heavier springs because the piston housing is too small. In the contrary, go with lighter spring for indoor shooting and much better accuracy.

Good collection!

The QB 78 and Crosman 2260 aren't exactly the same. The QB78 is heavier and more sturdy. It is based on a much older Crosman.
