I got a notice from Crosman as soon as mine was shipped Ed !!! I never got an email from UPS until the day before it got here. It was handy to see what was going on with tracking number that Crosman sent me though.
Finally got a tracking number! Wooohooo! Supposed to be here Tuesday.
I really do wonder about the stock on these because they're made with a plastic injection mold and I'm sure there's still a lot of plastic injection molding going on here in the U.S. yet

Some were parts of a mower, Buell motorcycle fairings, etc, all made near Hickory NC. They have long since moved on to other careers, but I'm sure the company is still active. The fact that the plastics they made were durable/flexible enough for motorcycle fairings and mower decks tells me it was ABS or resinous plastic. Not the cheap clacky clacky stuff that comes on Crosman 13xx guns. One of the reasons I decided on the Daisy 901 vs the Crosman Legacy 1000 was the stock on the Daisy. Glad to hear the Crosman 362 uses a higher quality resinous plastic.
Lots of injection molding going on in the auto industry here in the US.
I'll definitely be putting a steel breech on mine because I probably won't really notice the weight difference plus putting a scope on it will make a big difference no doubt. It's been so long since I've done much with the 22xx's I don't recall if the steel breech made a difference as far as fps goes
Mine finally came today. I like it. I cleaned the barrel. Put a couple pieces of gorilla duct tape across the magnet. Might put a couple more pieces there. Used some felt along the pump tube to quiet the clack. Kinda sorta sighted it in at 10 yards with 14.3 cphp.A piece ... something... is rattling around in the pump linkage. I have no idea whats causing that.So, is putting on the steel breech as easy as 2 screws and aligning the TP? Looks that way.
