The Crosman Backpacker carbine is actually a pistol with a skeleton shoulder stock. Pump it up to 10 times to get the most bang for your buck! The Backpacker is compact, convenient and quite accurate. What a great time to bring back this gun (it's been gone from airgunning for several years) along with a bugout bag. There's enough room in this bug out bag to add some food (such as beef jerky) and other essentials you'll need when the time comes to grab you stuff and go.

Alright now, don't everybody buy them all up! I'm broke till payday 

[jdub]

That's pretty cool!  and you figure only $90 after the ever present 10% off coupon.

[BDS]

Ya but add back in the $12 + to ship it.

The pics make all the plastic look black but... the orig 2289 was that ugly green plastic back in the day, sure hope they didn't revive that 70's throwback color!

Alright now, don't everybody buy them all up! I'm broke till payday 

Chong... They are on pre-order/not yet instock, ships Oct 5, 2012.

Enter code   Bugout-2012   if you order, save 10% or, free shipping might be better deal for you with steel breech and a tin o' pellets at $150-ish?

[chongman]

Ya, I clicked the pre-order for 2 of them

[crossliner]

I thought them BackPacker pump grips were no longer available..Seems black though and not green..I like it and would order 1 if not for our stupid Philippine laws 

[Squallywally]

They were out. Looks as if they started re molding some

[mudduck48]

i cant believe this
it looks like they are going to start selling them again
that forearm is definitely black
do you know their is a 2012 1377 coming /came out the evp isnt available yet? i wonder if this is it

[mudduck48]

I don't know, I looked up the "backpacker" and I found out that the Crosman 2289 was discontinued. It looks like it had a 14" barrel.

The new one has a 12" barrel. I went to Crosmans website and found nothing. We will have to wait and see.

[Davio]

Doomsday, huh?  Nice pellet gun and all, but for the real deal I suggest some knock down and stay down equipment.  Just sayin'...

[1377x]

its for small game hunting.there is only so much ammo.with a 1377 keep the seals wet it will last you 20+ years without changing the seals
wheel weights fishing weights you can find them and make a crude pellet

Yes, the stock is easily removed with the push of the stock detent pin.
However, the stock will have a slight wiggle to the left and right.

Who ever has one ordered:
After you get it, call Crosman and tell them a  plastic part is broken and you need to order a new part. Hopefully they will email you a EVP/PL so you can post it here.

We need the part number for the forearm!
