Just bought a really nice crosman 600 but after reading the stories in the old threads here I kind of wish I hadnt.  I have another crosman 38t on the way as well.

Kinda thinking about picking up one of those Makarov pistols since I use a real one for my CCW most of the time.  I seem to be stuck on vintage crosmans right now.

I just bought a used 2240 off the classifieds that I'll scavenge some parts from and then recreate in some form so that's my next project.

Being limited to indoor shooting and having no need for much power I've settled into a long-term hunt for the discontinued Feinwerkbau Model 103 10m Air Pistol.  Something about a true world-class single-stroke pneumatic is just intriguing.  I have an Izzy and a 717--both single-stroke pneumatics--but even the Izzy comes up short compared to a Feinwerkbau.    I really like totally self-contained airguns, much like my Sheridans and Benjamin or a 1377.   A tin of pellets and your airgun and you're good to go.  No pumps, hoses, cartridges, SCUBA tanks, etc.

Now having said that I'd love a nice PCP gun with all the required paraphernalia and envy many of the guns I see out there.  I think a 1701P would be a nice PCP pistol to start out with considering my fascination with accurate lower powered target pistols.

I have a .25 marauder thats due to arrive tomorrow. I have a harris bipod and a 4.5-16x40 CPA AO RG mildot scope that'll temporarily grace it until I order the TAG version i want...
will be ordering a P-rod very soon to add to my growing collection, with a .25 Airforce Condor Bountyhunter coming after that...

I had my mind set on a witness but the BB thing just isn't working for me. There's something more realistic about pellets.

Yikes, I couldn't even imagine shooting either of those.  I'm not ashamed to admit that 44mag is all my wrist can handle.

What's wrong with the 600?

I thought they were great.  Its always been the one airgun I really wanted to get familiar with.  However, after reading up on threads here and around the web I am wondering if I have bitten off more than I can chew.  I do not have the capability to manufacture parts.They also sound like they are extremly sensitive.

We will see.  Hopefully I got a good one.  I really dont like the idea of sending it off somewhere.

I'm waiting for the Crosman C51 to finally come out. I really want that one...  :)

The 600 is a great gun and made very good there are many folks out there that can rebuild your 600 if needed and about being sensitive it's just pellet choice that you need to watch use flat tip/wadcutter pellets and you wont have a problem.

Im getting a Wintess for my anniversary Aug 15th so i must wait. Go for it John BB guns are a blast to shoot cheap ammo and great for pratice.
