   That's a nice shooter you have there, how long have you owned it? I saw one of those at a gun show a while ago, but did not buy it because it was in poor condition. Looks like yours is in excellent condition. Ill bet it's a blast to shoot too!

It's a .177 and When I find out what it's worth I wouldn't mind selling it to some one who can get it running again. I will dig it out of it's nest and post some pic later tomorrow.

Well I went digging through my treasure pile today and this is what I came up with. Crosman  Model 454, Co2 Semi Auto BB pistol (my personal favorite for 14 yrs poweful yet Quiet) and my Crosman 38-T Co2 revolver. Very loud 17 yrs ago when I bought it. And my Marksman BB/Pellet/Dart pistol that still works fine. All are .177 cal. with Original boxes and papers (the Marksman was a plastic Wrap around the sign board pictured). The two Co2 guns need seal repairs.
Any offers? If I ship UPS do I declare them as "Toy Air Pushers"? I don't think they want to hear the "G" word.

WOW! my best friend had the 454 and i had the 38T we used to roam the woods having  all kinds of fun with them. that was back in the 1970's . thanks for showing them and bringing back some good memories.

Hey Steve,
Thanks for reminding me how old that 454 is. 1970's is about when I bought it. That was one of the BEST pistols I've ever had. It was powerful and yet Quiet at the same time. Reasonably accurate out to 20-30yds. My newer co2 semi autos are Toooooo  Loud!
 Man I shot that thing for 20 yrs and it never leaked down between weeks of sitting on the shelf.

Yep i can see the missing Co2 seal it looks like it might be the same one as the 357s seal part number 38-128.

Mike, I haven't forgotten you. I just started to look at these housing seals and how they Unscrew. It may be a few more days (Busy now) untill I can 'make a tool' (spanner) to remove this part and see if I can find the 'rubber' parts to fix them. I will keep you in mind whether I can fix them or not. I'd like to keep the 454, but the 357 may be for sale/trade later on. I haven't even looked at these things in 6 yrs, untill I saw your post above on the 357, and it got me looking again.
Thanks,
doug,P.

Very nice vintage pistols.  I had a Crosman .357 or maybe it was a .38 also back in the early 70`s.  Mine was all metal but didn`t have the removable circular magazine.  I had to press a lever on the left side of the revolver down and then load the .22s into the plastic cylinder one by one.  It was pretty accurate out to 10 - 15 yards.

Since it used CO2...and we weren`t that rich back then I sold it to a friend (He had shot the handgun before).  First time removing the CO2 cylinder he bend the pin, because he didn`t unscrew it out completely and heavy-handedly pulled the cylinder out.  I got the handgun back and he got his $10.00, and I never repaired the handgun since labour, shipping and handling almost costed as much as a new one.  I had it in my drawer for over 10 years and then one day decided to toss it away.
