I had a 1377 pistol setup with a 4x pistol scope for a few years. And during that time, it mostly collected dust. It's hard to keep the sight picture stable with the added weight, unless you shoot from a bench rest. And in low light, it's very difficult to find your sight picture to begin with.The pistol scope eventually went on a Crosman 2100. It is mounted towards the muzzle, so it doesn't get in the way of pumping and loading pellets. It works great on the rifle. No problem gaining and holding the sight picture when you have a proper cheek weld.
I have a 1377 pistol with a bsa red dot I like a lot…and a 2240 with a pistol scope….very accurate if I do my part….good luck

I had a BSA Edge 2x20 pistol scope but have since switched to a BSA RD30 Red Dot. Much easier target acquisition... and loading pellets.People dislike the size of the dot for target shooting but if I turn down the illumination I can see "through" the dot.The Edge is still on another pistol and I enjoy it a lot.

I "want" to shoot my 1377 pistol from a rest, but I also shoot it standing, so I think I will keep the red dot. I use rifle scopes on all my 13xx and 22xx carbines.I use the 30mm red dots on the red ryders but for the 13xx guns, I have found I prefer the smaller tube red dots. ALSO - what wood furniture is on that gun? Very nice!

On my 13xx pistols no, but 13xx with shoulder stock yes.
I have a pistol scope with mildot reticle on my 1377.
