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? _________________ Air Arms EV2 Mk3 AF Condor .25/.22 Custom Crosman 1377 Crosman Quest 1000 Crosman Pumpmaster LE #1178 of 5000 Daisy Powerline 2003 Daisy Red Ryder 25th.

I have given 2 clues; 1) I has to do with "safety" (not the actual safety) 2) It is a uncommon aesthetic mod Last edited by jgoodz420 on Wed Mar 30, 2011 9:06 am; edited 1 time in total _________________ Air Arms EV2 Mk3 AF Condor .25/.22 Custom Crosman 1377 Crosman Quest 1000 Crosman Pumpmaster LE #1178 of 5000 Daisy Powerline 2003 Daisy Red Ryder 25th.

What make of bluing did you use? Al 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 _________________ Air Arms EV2 Mk3 AF Condor .25/.22 Custom Crosman 1377 Crosman Quest 1000 Crosman Pumpmaster LE #1178 of 5000 Daisy Powerline 2003 Daisy Red Ryder 25th.

Is it because Snoopy has a wood stock?   Posted: Wed Mar 30, 2011 6:45 pm jgoodz420 Member Joined: 06 Oct 2009 Posts: 74 Location: Canada Roy wrote: Forgive me if I missed this(I've been away from the Forum for a while)but, why did you name the gun "Snoopy"?
