Crosman 2240/1377 Grip Modification

[Poor-man Plinker]

At the risk of having Poor-man Plinker getting upset at me for hijacking his thread... I switched the stock grip screws for some brass ones to add a bit of contrast, and drilled/tapped the bottom of grip frame...

Yo Sholo. S'all good with me... One of these days I will have to buy a tap set. I would hate to keep things too simple he he he.

Ha ha ha Doc,

Yer a funny guy... they have an expression in Costa Rica: "Si pero no." It means "yes but no." Why do you need to test the memory of an old fart? Yes, the pad 1389-070 was only factory installed in the 2289 (ef'n Crosman parts numbers don't match the gun models), but, no, the spring and plunger (1322-017 and 1389-006 respectively) was in both the 1389 and 2289 drawing. Before you object again - I just checked the Crosman site.

I have not ordered the spring/plunger, but, I am willing to bet you 20 push-ups that they will fit in the "whole of unknown function" in both the old 2 screw frames and the new 3 screw frames that are mounted on the 22xx and 13xx models. Don't make me look up the frame part numbers for you. You buy the parts and install them and if my guess is wrong, I will drop and give you 20. If you buy them and they fit... hit the floor, dude ha ha ha.

My bad I tought you had made a typo. I never heard of the 1389. I've only seen 2289's (which is why I have 2 of them).

I just did the padded tape thing on my 1701P and it's now tight and snug. I took about an inch, cut it in 2. A half-inch at the bottom, a half-inch at the top and everything is tight and nothing is moving now.
