I agree!!!!    Will be keeping a eye out for one!    Big gun show this week-end and you never know what/if airguns will show up.  Well other than those orange lever cock Harbor Freight Chinese ones. Any show always has a couple of those.

Hard to go wrong with the Crosman Golden Era CO2 guns.  They really jumped ahead of the competition when they made the bet on CO2.

At best, I inherited the position from Wayne52 (RIP), he was the original enabler! Him posting a picture of his Ted Williams Crosman 150 got me hooked!

Bob, while looking for a Ted Williams, don't skip these: Crosman 600!

I remember watching many of his videos and his pleasant voice. He is duly missed.

After you've acquired all the variations and calibers, there's always something like this.

I like the clear model!!    I screwed around and missed a 130 like that that Baker Airguns was selling a year or two ago.   Regret not buying it.

This got me thinking about how many different versions of the clear demo guns were made.  Anybody know? So we know  130 and 150.  Searched but no hits.

Several years ago, a retired Crosman employee agreed to answer questions on the AA website.  I posted pics of this 150 and asked him who made it, Crosman or a contract model maker.  He replied that this 150 and the 130 were made in the Crosman model shop.  He also stated that he didn't know how many were made or what they were used for.

I’ve got a few variations of the Crosman 150, but I don’t have one like what you have shown. That’s a nice one! :-)

Yes Wayne loved his 150's and he is truly missed.

Brewbear... where did you get the wood grips?
 One of my 112's needs a set, I have white, grey, and brown models but #4 is missing them.
A wood set would be SWEET!

I am also digging these 150 PK Shooting Outfits.  Picked this one up.  Like the outside color, and the inside color also.  One interesting thing to notice they are different sizes.  Going to have to rebuild this one.  Will be my first 150.  You can get about 10 shots if you cock and fire as fast as you can. Leaking out of the barrel.  Been watching video's.
