Best of the Best


New Blue from Rick


George Ewen's Custom 1377 Would you look at that pump handle? I mean...Look at it!!!!


Rick Pryor's pair of tricked out 1377's.
The 1322 is about 5 years old and has burled walnut grips from Rick Andres ,Crosman steel breech , trigger shoe, BSA 4x32AO scope and a PSP power tune. The 1377 is almost 20 tears old ,has less than 300 shots through it and is totally stock other than the grips which I painted with Krylon " Make it Stone" color Obsidian. I like the way the Krylon looks so much that I am in the process of doing my RWS 34's stock with it.

Mike's 1377

This is my first time and I'm pleased with the results. I started out with a phase 2 1377 and added a steel breech and brass trigger w/ shoe from Crosman, a 14in barrel w/ brake from Roy at MountainAir as well as a lighter sear spring and guide. Also, a set of walnut target grips from RB Grips and topped it off w/ a Red Dot sight. Had to use the RD-30 w/ air gun mount. My next step (once I recover from the $$ I spent) will be a brass flat top piston. Can hardly wait to see how better my grouping gets.

Tim in NC created this little jewel. Here is the run down:

The custom parts include:
New trigger from Airgunsmith
Grips from RB Grips
Bolt & barrel from Mountain Air Muzzle break, barrel shroud, and other brass parts were made by Art.
Breech and rear sight are from Crosman Front sight is a TruGlo shotgun sight


This one has been in the works for months. The plan was to make the 1377 look like a modern version of a Mountain or Kentucky pistol from the 1800’s. I think I finally have achieved that look. Thanks to all who made the parts for me. The grips are made by Rick at Airgrips. The trigger and safety are from Sid at Airgunsmith. The long breech is from Robert at RJ Machine. And a special thanks to my very good friend Art who made many custom one of a kind parts.


"I just finished some grips and forearm for my 1377. It is my first time out the gate. I couldn't handle the plastic any longer. I left the large flat under the thumb rest to laser etch later. I also need another coat of finish on the forearm just could wait any longer before taking pics.

Greg Schutte's inovative 1377 Pellet Holder

I got tired of carrying around a tin of pellets so I made a Gun Mounted Ammo Container. I call it the GMAC. I'm working on a version for my 2240. It works really Sweet!

Zoned's lightly modded 1377

Fantastic 1377 put together by

Paul Bishop.
"The position of the front sight was my idea although it may not be original. I didn't want it hanging on the end as I felt that it would get damaged. The brass shroud goes through the barrel band. The trigger shoe came from Crosman. They were out of all colors except the purple so that is what I ordered."

"Other work done is a cleaning of the barrel, Recrown of the muzzle, solid brass piston, larger valve volume, trigger sear polish, lube and lighter spring and guide installed, additional screw installed in the side plate for integrity, refinish of the receiver with the hammered charcoal finish, steel breech and custom bolt thanks to you and about 32 hours of my time".

One of the nicest 1377s I have ever seen. Nice work CharlesC.

It started out as a rifle, went to a scoped pistol config and now it's an iron sighted pistol. Of my three 1377's this is the one I like most for plinking.
I machined the receiver/breech and barrel weight/sight holder out of some scrap brass hex bar stock that was laying around my machine shop.
Bolt dimensions are more like a 397 than a typical 1377. The bolt groove next to the breech is pellet diameter and the rear section is larger diameter to give more meat to thread the bolt handle into.
I used an Iron Sight Gun Works rear sight that I grooved to snap down over the scope grooves. It's held down with the 4-48 screws that came with the sight. I made the front blade .150" wide to give me the 1-2-1 sight picture I like when the pistol it held at arms length.
The barrel is 1/2 of a 1760 rifle barrel.
It's a fun pistol to shoot, is very accurate and isn't fussy about the kind of pellets it likes.
Innards are mostly stock including old style brass cup air chamber outlet valve. Of course I've fiddled around with the trigger a bit.

Leo's matching 1740 and 1377
My idea in building these 2 pistols was to have 2 basically identical pistols based off of Crosman's 2 basic platforms. I think I achieved the look and idea I was going for. Both were tuned by me to be what I think a target pistol should be.
1740 Maximum accuracy and number of shots was the purpose here. When all was said I done I was getting around 60-70 shots on a cart at 450 fps. In order to do this I left the valve stock, added a deboinger from Roy at MA and a Power Adjuster with a full length spring guide from Art. The power adjuster with spring guide was a very important piece of the puzzle because it allowed me to dial in exaclt how much gas was being used so that there was very little waste. It also made the gun quieter. The trigger had a guide from Airgunsmith and had been polished on all surfaces. The breech is from RJ Machine, grips from Steve Corcoran, and muzzle brake from Rich in Mich. which I added the front sight to. All of this made for one smooth and accurate shooter.

1377 My goal for this was to achieve somewhere around 450 fps on 3 pumps. I got 415 fps on 3 and left it at that. It was meant to be a target pistol so the least amount of pumps was a necessity. I added a flat top piston from Roy at MA as well as a hammer spring guide from him. I switched out the 13xx hammer spring in favor of a 22xx spring because I did not need to dump a high number of pumps and the 22xx spring jarred the pistol less when fired. I polished all parts of the triggering system and lightened the spring to make for a smooth pull. The breech is a left hand long with sight cutout from RJ Machine, the grips are from Steve Corcoran and have an ebony end cap. The muzzle brake is from Larry. I added the front sight to it.

Trevor's 16th birthday present

This gun was a present from his grandfather

My much anticipated 1377 came in this week. I am very pleased with Skyler’s work.

This pistol will be a birthday present for grandson so I wanted it to be the best.

I did a lot of searching for a Red Dot sight. I finally ended up with the ATN Compact Digital Ultra Reflex Sight from Optics Planet http://www.opticsplanet.net/atn-corp-cmp-dusrs.html. I chose it for its small size and sleek design.

To convert to weaver sight base I was going to buy the BSquare 2 Pc 3/8 to weaver bases because they looked lower than the BKL, but they were not in stock.

So I went with the BKL adapters

Michael's 1377 Twins...well, almost
Look at those beautiful grips and pumper arms that he made.
Here's a prototype grip and forestock that I've designed for my twins.

Brett in Puyallup's 1377
He did some very nice wood work on his gun.
Its a Crosman 1377 phase II that I bought 19 years ago. I was looking on the yellow forum at a post and the Crosman forum site link was in it so I decided to take a look. Thats when this whole 1377 project came about. There were so many cool things that I saw being done to these guns that I was going to buy a 2240 to start juicing up. I decided to start with what I already had, the 1377. 1st was the breech from Crooked Barn, which I polished right away. At the same time was the 1760 barrel that I chopped down to 16" , recrowned and polished it too. Next was the forearm and Pistol grips I did in maple. I wanted to keep it as a pistol but I was struggling on what exactly I wanted as far as sights for it. I had an extra crosman scope (silver) that came with my sons 760 so I mounted that. I liked that but it was so small and shakey in that configuration that I decided to mount the shoulder stock that I had bought with the gun 19 years earlier. It shot so nicely as a carbine that I decided to keep it that way but it just didnt look right with the maple forearm and the black stock. This is where the idea of making my own stock came in. I went to the local hardwood dealer and found a nice 8/4 piece of maple with figure in it. I used the crosman stock as the basic template for the angles and such and tweaked them to my likings. I started out to copy the lines of one of Steve Cocorans stocks but I decided to go with my own design to be original. Most of the little details came along during the process. I didnt have a big picture when it started, just knew that the maple and black plastic didnt go together. The real beauty is in the wood that God created.

Zoned's 1322

Tim's 1322

I got the metal barrel band from Dave Welker. The metal barrel band wouldn't allow me to use the 10 inch barrel with a stock front sight. I did cut 3 inches off of a 14" barrel, so it's near 11 inches. Since I had to cut and crown, I figured I might polish the barrel to match the shiny barrel band. I kind of like the black and silver look, but will order some nice wood grips for it soon.

This gun has the flat top brass piston in it and shoots pretty hard. I have tuned other 1322s that came out better, but this one holds it's own. It is very accurate, though, and that's what counts. I shot a few 5-shot nickel sized groups today at 25 yards with open sights using JSB exacts. Rws Hobbies shoot nicely as well. It shot a little bit more open (quarter size) with cps.

Here's what it shoots with 14.3 grain cps:

10 pumps - 523 fps
12 pumps - 552 fps
15 pumps - 588 fps
20 pumps - 630 fps

I plan to use a 2100 intake valve in it soon to decrease the volume and increase the pressure. I'm just waiting for that to arrive from Crosman. I'll post on how it turns out.

Chevell's Newest 1322 Creation...what a beauty!!

Front and back view	12 pumps	15 pumps	18 pumps
These results easily surpass the best numbers of my modded steroid streak despite the fact that my gun has a much smaller pump volume displacement and much smaller valve. Kinda gives new meaning to the word efficiency. It's also twice as easy to pump as my steroid gun even with no extra leverage and a metal handle! It will also be much more accurate because of the stiffness of the perfectly honed 304 stainless pump tube which is locked to my Crosman barrel with brass barrel bands. This gun has all the mods I used on my 1322 carbine and a few new ones as well. It's also very quiet, even on the higher pump levels. This is the gun as tested, the pistol grips are just for testing. It will have a top of the line full size walnut stock and a Leapers 8-32 AO 56mm scope. Crosman Premiers, 22 cal. 14.3 grain.

My new tack driver thank to Roy @ Mountain Air for another fine job. He does make it easy for me to build a great gun you could say he's my easy button. For folks like me that don't have the time, skills or tools Mountain Air is the way to go. They turn out great every time. This is my 4th MA gun and every one has been a home run.
Also wont to thank
