YEEEEES!!!!   :-*

I just installed a steel breech on my new 1377 and put on a BSA red dot and couldn't be happier. The grouping below was from ten yards rested and there's a pic of my "indoor range" too. It's 30' the way it's set up now, but if I sit with my back against the wall I can get 13 yards. Thanks guys for tips along the way and thank you Ed for help with the breech.   :-*  You might need to clean out your mailbox.   :D
HOSPs and Chippers beware!!!!!

I think my wife will really like shooting it too, but I MUST not let her try to commandeer it.     ;D









The "range". The flash made it look much darker then it was.









The results:  10 shot at ten yards, CPHP 7.9 (one flyer in the 6 ring, rushed my shot from excitement)    :(










Phase two will be the "holy grail of plastic pump arms", solid roll and pump arm pins and a 12" barrel. A TKO when funds become available. You guys have corrupted me.    ;D

That's an excellent grouping!

I posted this in the other thread but I really like the BSA.  Once dialed in they are awesome.

As for the TKO I don't think any guns I own from now on will be without one.  It makes a huge difference.

Everyone says to knock the roll pins out from right to left on the pump arm and the front roll pin. When I did mine, I put the pin punch in the holes to see if I had the roll pin centered.
We need to keep going and have fun doing it.

Thanks guys, and good tips mudduck.
I got wife-al approval for all the parts (early Bday presents so she doesn't have to get me anything), except for the 12" barrel. I'm sure she will shoot it as is tonight, but when that barrel arrives..... I need a plan.

   * See, I held off from saying she would notice the extra 2"   :-X

Real nice build, Tater. You will be a force to be reckoned with if you start entering the monthly target competitions.

Thanks guys.

@ Earl - It's the stock barrel on it now. A 12" is coming at some point soon (I hope).

@Ruster - Hehe, it's happened here to (loose scope on a springer).

My wife tried it tonight too and did really well.
