That breech screw seemed awful small... emailed Crosman about that screw.  They said it was a 1/54 (.0185) allen wrench.

It's an .050" hex key, get several, the cheap ones round off quickly.

Yep...It was .050" Crosman gave me the wrong info!

I use 1.3mm hex for the said screw although I already replaced them w/ ss versions that use 2mm hex keys. Best regards.

All the Ace Hardwares near me have the 050's. Like $.45 each too! None at Home Depot, Lowes, Menards....
Buy several as suggested.

Well finally :) I broke down the 2400KT polished the hammer and cleaned the barrel. The basics are done. I couldn't belive the crap in the bore. I gave it the Qtip test on the chamber and the crown, no snags. While I had the barrel out I gave the chamber and crown a light polish.  Now, if I put everything back together right it should push a pellet down the barrel, hopefully with some accuracy. The reassembly of the breech was a little tricky. It kept wanting to roll left or right on the tube. My biggest concern was keeping the transport port aligned with the barrel. Next time I think I'll put in the screw for the hammer spring cap in first to keep it from rolling.

Yesterday I made a new trigger, today I made up a muzzle brake and cut plywood to have a go at making some grips and fitted my new steel breech that arrived this morning. I was also looking at the trigger frame I reckon it shouldn't be too hard to make a replacement from steel.

If you can make steel trigger frames....well lets just say you could make some money selling them around here!

Finished up a new pellet trap for my brother. He has one of those crosman plastic jobs so I made him a new silent trap.  Turns out pretty good,still need to adjust my dimension a little,that's what you get with doing something with no real plan.
