Hi all,
New to the forum, I hope I'm toasting in the right place.
I was looking to get a little bit better of an air rifle purely for backyard plinking. I recently bought me and my daughter some Red ryders and while it's great for her I'm itching for a little bit more power and accuracy. I did a lot of research and I landed on the Crosman 362. It's actually getting delivered today so I had a couple questions.
The first was I saw a lot of people saying that it's a tinkerers dream and I love to mod things. I also like doing 3D prints. I had trouble using the search on the forum to find this information but can anyone point me to some good places to look at different upgrades for the 362?
Specifically I'd like to look into a longer and maybe something too quiet it down?
As I said this is for backyard plinking so I prefer to use iron sights. I've also used a Daisy 880 for a while which I've enjoyed but I was getting tired of so many pumps so I'm hoping that I'll be able to get away with around three to four pumps with 14 grain pellets.
Also, is there anything you guys recommend or I start shooting with it? Cleaning the barrel, oiling etc?
Appreciate any tips related to this air gun or new gun setup.

Go to the American/U.S. Airguns Gates, then the Crosman-Benjamin Gate.
You will find enough stuff there in the 362 to keep you reading for months...

All I have done so far was to install the steel breech so I could use a Williams peep I had in my spares. But…While I had it apart I installed a larger transfer port, brass extended probe and teardrop handle :D I really like it, it is very accurate for my needs, lighter than my 392 or RWS 48 so great to woods walk with. Enjoy the journey.
