A Crosman 106 collector pistol

(1/3) > >>

Just in from an auction that was part of a three pistol group.  This Crosman 106 is about as good of condition as I have seen?  Plus its the earliest production; first type of sight and no identification on the pistol except the small circle on the grip. The finish is in remarkable condition for its age. (1948-1953). A little oil of the pump cup and it was firing like new. Being the first Crosman pistol makes it a cool addition.  Ironically I sold my only 106 at the airgun shows this year. That one didn’t hold a candle to this one. You never know what will come around the bend? This one seems like a keeper.














The later variation had these markings and a little cheaper sight.

Good find!

  My 106 is a later version but has the same front sight/tube plug as yours does, while my earlier 105 has the skinny front sight but the early rear sight.

I’ll 2nd Charles assessment - likely mid production due to wide blade front sight even though other identifiers are early production.
The 3 on the right are all 106s - earliest to latest - top to bottom. The late production 106 has a 1300 medalist lever due to the original being broken.
One of my favorite air pistols - I think I have room for 1 more if you get tired of it 😃

Curious, the 22 came out in the second year. I see the early .177 with the skinny front sight. Did early 22’s have the skinny or the new front sight?
