Thought I'd show off my Crosman .357.....

Just thought I'd show off a couple of pics of my Crosman .357 I just finished doing a few things to. The grips where loose so I put some black electrical tape on the frame as a shim. Then I painted the grips with Duplicolor bedliner. I took the barrel out. Smoothed up each end of the barrel. Took the weight out of the bottom and glued it in. Glued the barrel in. Took the magazine and smoothed the barrel side of it. Then added the Daisy electonic point sight. I even painted the front sight yellow, even though you can't use it with the point sight. Can't wait to shoot it some. I'm ready for the time change. Anyway, on to the pictures...

I haven't done the mods you have but, otherwise, my 357 is identical to yours. I find that the Daisy red dot sight is a bit too bright for my indoor use on even the lowest setting (there are only two settings available) and wish there was some way to turn it down. Have you figured out any way to deal with that?
It certainly is fun to shoot and it is fairly accurate (not up to the standards of my custom 2240 but fairly accurate, nonetheless). Hope you are enjoying yours.

New guy just joined.
I have 5 crosman pistols, absolutely love them; couple others not crosman.
I setup a 10 meter range in my basement.
I only shoot free hand, no rest for me, not my style.
Bought my 357, bought in October 2011, and since I have put in excess of 25000 pellets through this thing, no mods. at 15000 wore out valve, sent to crosman repaired valve; since have put more than 10000 more through.
Sounds nuts but I am retired and shoot 2 two hour sessions most days, 7 days a week. Shoot around 10000 shots a month. I do burn through a lot of co2, but also spend a lot of time with the pumpers. Seems like I have a constant order from pyramid air goingfor pellets, guess I just like meeting the FedEx person.

You do love your Crosmans. 10000 shots a month is a LOT!

Welcome to the group. Got pictures of the pistols?
Retirement is great but I have too many other things to do so shooting as much as you do simply isn't possible. Glad you have the time/space to do so. The best straight line distance I can manage in my basement is 7 yards, but I try to shoot at least a bit every day. Dang, Pyramyd should give you a personal discount!!
