Hi all ...
I am in the process of putting together my own personal dream CO2 target pistol from all Crosman available parts. I am using the Marauder 2 stage trigger group, a nice LW barrel, my own gas valve modifications, my own grips, adjustable length striker, adjustable hammer blow weight, etc. Now I am in the process of putting a 1701 Silhouette breech on the CO2 main tube. This mounts with 4 screws and they are drilled vertically on the sloping sides of the tube. I think I need make a jig and to practise drilling and tapping something that is off camber like that. So, I am looking for an old tube to practise on. It can be dented or bent or rusty or otherwise useless for intended use as all I want it for is a scrap piece to drill and tap until my confidence level goes up a bit. If you have something like that, let me know what you want for it and I will PayPal you right away.
