I've been shooting the heck out of my 2240 for over a year now and loving every minute of it. The 2240 has made me proficient with my "big" handguns. Last week it seems everyone put the 1377C on sale.I found mine @ Academy for 40.00 and with the addition of a few tins of pellets the shipping was free.http://www.academy.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_10051_30843_-1__?N=30703992 FedEx should be delivering it today.Should be nice to have around if for no other reason to give my 2240 a much deserved break.
Forgot to mention that the crown on this 1377 looks excellent.Did not feel the need to recrown it.
It's easier to replace the spring and ball if you take the whole grip/trigger assembly off the tube. Look up "miketheknife2" on YouTube. The video is 1377 disassembly. Great informative video that should help you out a little the next time you have to tear it down. Home Depot had a pack of 4 springs that I feel work pretty well and the price was only like $2-3.
