Yeah, that vid is only days old...I wonder what happened? Someone on here was thinking it was going to be the 2250XE that went away, but that is still there (for a 100 bucks more with no Air Source).  ???

They seem to be still available in the UK? Backlog maybe?
Another thing I noticed is that they are now along with the 2250b and 2240 licensed
under Webley to be sold/produced here? Could be the license was sold/leased.

I still find both brands though. Trouble is for the US members it will now be twice the price!

Just got this from Crosman;

Hi Carl,

"Yup, it's been phased out."

Crosman

Bummer, the AS2250XT was just a great gun.

Wow, I just bought my AS2250XT  a few weeks ago. It was delivered to my house on March 8th, only 20 days ago. I'm glad I bought it when I did. I had no clue they were discontinuing it.


Anyway,  mine is for sale.  $300.00     

anyone interested? hahaha....


Sorry, that's not cool of me to do to those of you who never bought one. Mine isn't really for sale, because it's too good of a gun to get rid of! It really sucks for everyone else that it's not being made any more.

Post by: woody67 on March 28, 2011, 05:02:22 PM
Tell her for 145 it's a steal right now. If you wanted to buy all the parts to convert a 2240, it would be waaay more expensive. Plus, since it's discontinued if you ever want to buy one you'll have to pay a lot more for it.

You can't not buy one now!

Make it easier on yourself - Just don't tell her. Hide it were your oily tools are - I doubt she'd go there for a rummage - mine wouldn't!  ;D

If I don't tell her its new, she doesn't notice as they all look the same to her! And she's really not interested.  ;)

Ordered mine last night from http://pellet-guns.net/crosman2250xtbycrosman.aspx (http://pellet-guns.net/crosman2250xtbycrosman.aspx) ordered enough pellets to get over $169.00 to get free shipping.  Seemed like a good deal to me.

Yes.
Welcome back to the ground.
Go get your credit card. You won't have buyers remorse, but you'll always wish u had bought it if you don't.

X2.... lesson learnt along time ago.... regret something you've done rather than something you didn't.
Secondly if I see something I want, I buy it - if you return it will be gone!

I STILL have not figured out Crosman's thinking for dropping both the 2250B and the AS2250....only thing I can guess is that they want to increase Custom Shop business??????? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ???

I can understand having to keep up with the times and change production to keep the market going but, and I donââ,¬â,,¢t know for a fact, it seems like most of the guns they have now is inferior to the 22xx. Am I wrong

Heres a weird thing: If you goto Google and type in Webley, goto Webley international website.

It lists the Ratcatcher 2250b and Rabbitstopper 2260 in there as theirs?

BUT interestingly and member "DaveCAG" may be able to shed some light on this.
The Venom pistol is also available through Webley?!

What is going on? Are Webley the Euro Crosman front in disguise?  ??? ???


bdb12586: Sounds like their cutting back on their budget!?

Yea I donââ,¬â,,¢t think I would by a rogue. I shoot Airguns because there shootable in close quarters and in my basement, if I were to need a gun more powerful I would use one of my powder burners. Beside I donââ,¬â,,¢t think there going to be nearly as cheap as a rim fire and the Electronic just gives more things to go wrong

the eletronics i wouldn't worry about ---- daystate has been using them for years in ALL kinds of enviroments and it is tried,trued and tested .now with the rogue i would wait a year or two to be sure all the kinks are worked out the ifin i was to buy one  .first runs produced of anything make me leary .

Man, you have it worse than all of us....
I'm guessing you bought a second one either for a different mod plan altogether (Which I've considered doing, but can't justify having a bunch of guns that do the same thing basically)
OR
you see the investment opportunity Crosman has presented to us....You'll be able to double the value on that gun with just a few mods, if any, in not too much time.

I had no issues with the website..... ???

Could be your software is over sensitive. You can get warnings just from a cookie.
Or simply the software doesn't recognise the codes and freaks out. Sometimes an update of its prefs/defs sorts this.

BUT I'm on a mac and viruses et cetera aren't an issue. Mainly due to the target being windows which again is most of the planet.

Oh well the info's there if you want it  :-*

   Taylor, the site may have been one that was affected by a large SSL certificate hack that was done last week. Additionally, they may have gotten ht by an outsider with some malicious code. If I get a few minutes, I can check the site, and perhaps do some analysis, as this is one of the many things I do for a living.
