Nice collection William. 880 fans owe it to yourselves to get your hands on a metal 880. Plenty of them out there at good prices. You won't be disappointed. Here are a few of mine. All boxed w/docs(late model off the rack 880's not shown-3). The 20th has a plastic lever & metal receiver.
*SNIP* Both of the last two reworked 880's I recently changed the probe to a rivet so there was a lot less surface area so air flow I thought would be better .... In both cases, with that only change ---- my velocity dropped dramatically from the 580--590fps area to the 560fps area with 9 pumps using 10.5gr pellets.

That gun came out really nice Bill!! Great job on the restoration.I forget, did I send it to you with that scope? I may have another somewhere if you want it.
