Wolfdog91 6,897 Posted May 5, 2021 Report Share Posted May 5, 2021 Been wanting a nice multi pump for a while, but could never really justify the cost especially with my PCP. Well walking into the pawn shop today to just look around and they had this little gal in the window . They average $150-$175 new and they wanted $79.99 for this one ! Pumped it up a few times to see if it held pressure and seemed pretty good so out the door we went 3 Quote Link to post
Kalibrgun 930 Posted May 5, 2021 Report Share Posted May 5, 2021 I've got one they're fun rifles but no good for the arms if plinking. I've got a silencer adapter on mine that I can't get off Quote Link to post
tatsblisters 9,447 Posted May 6, 2021 Report Share Posted May 6, 2021 Used to be a popular gun back in the day remember a mate having one when we were out roosting one night and the arm on the pump snapping due to it being pumped in quick succession due to the amount of birds to go at.lol 1 Quote Link to post

It is possible but the 1377 is a pistol so buy the 2289 cylinder just in case you get it checked I've built one a couple years back would of been cheaper getting the proper crosman backpacker. I keep eying the Benjamin p-rod up as a little woods rifle Quote Link to post

Actually currently working on building a little rig off a old 1377 currently has a steel breach and a .22cal barrel and some other bits and pieces. Had a guy in Canada make a stick adapter for me , hopefully when I'm all done should be similar to this, except well a pumper lol 1 Quote Link to post
Wolfdog91 6,897 Posted May 6, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2021 So found out the seals are pretty shot on the little gal won't really hold any air so it's gonna need to be re built. On the bright side I'm only looking at $20 for the rebuild kit 2 Quote Link to post

Not 100% sure you get mixed opinions about it and not really clear what's defined as a pistol or rifle to be fair bit of a grey area. I know some way once a pistol always a pistol then others say if the stocks fixed it's a carbine. 1 Quote Link to post
JakeFury 225 Posted May 7, 2021 Report Share Posted May 7, 2021 I've just this second seen one shoot 177 7.9 grains 10 pumps .. Doing well a lot more without blowing the blokes hand off. 11 plus ftlb... On YT.... I had one as a young man un modified which I shot against competitive pistols with outstanding results, would be fun to modify one. Quote Link to post

So long as it’s 24 inches overall length minimum you’re ok up to 12ft lb. doesn’t matter about barrel length until you go over 12ft lb, then it’s 12 inch minimum barrel and 24 inch minimum overall length. 1 Quote Link to post

As you may know, they’re restricted to 6ft lbs in Britain, which is a joke, as a catapult has easily more power than that. Quote Link to post
Wolfdog91 6,897 Posted May 18, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2021 Well $13 and about 30min and she's back holding pressure and slinging pellets Will say though it was off because other than cleaning the excess grease and old oil off the valve the old seals and what not looked just fine But slipp d on the pretty new ones and was holding air again who knows Will say though I hate the factory sights. The front is too thick for my liking and the rear is just bad in anything other than mid day lighting. Quote Link to post
