To Happy Hunter: I am sure you came across robert's post on the Yellow today about rust bluing...http://www.network54.com/Forum/79537/message/1388330968/There+is+one+method+that...


On to my latest accessory attachment. This is my last Crosman mod for a while. An M. Chavka wire stock fitted to the 2320KT. The Ultradot was mounted further forward so it would be easier to use with the stock attached. I have the pistol turned up to @7.5 fpe. I have no idea why I need that much thump or why I purchased the wire stock, but it is fun to shoot nonetheless.




How do you like that MC wire stock Mr. BFC? Is it really well made up close and is it more ergonomic than the Crosman 1399 stock? Regards.

P.S. PO will be open after  New Year.

Stock is very well made. I may buff it out to match the polished barrel. It has an integrated pressure adjuster, too.

As with most wire stocks there is not much of a cheek weld, depending on your choice of optics. That the butt stock is lowered give this stock a huge ergonomic advantage over the 1399 stock. LOP is also much better than the 1399, for me.

looks nice larry my preference is for wire stocks that are angled slightly about the same angle as the as2250xt bottle adapter which i have used in the past
started work on a free standing target block at present i've only made the targets and pivot bar but needs some more braces as when i tried it with my .25 the central bar deflected a fair bit
i'm planning on having them as knockdowns with a pull cord reset as opposed to swingers ,i'm also planning a set of knock down plates for a pistol when i decide which rapid fire pistol i like, a paper target pellet trap and a few swingers
i may even try to make a running boar type target for the top

Very nice start, Ped. Should get many years of use out of that one! :-*

And what is that I see in the background sporting shiny new intake pipes? Single or twin turbos? Must have more info! :-X ;D

Once I get some pieces done I will start a new thread in the "Off Topic" section showing my set up, procedure and results. :-*

Creative looking setup. Looking forward to your thread.
