Title: The Crosman 99 I Always Wanted
Post by: egillman on July 03, 2013, 03:58:45 PM

It was just before Christmas 1971 and what I really wanted was a Crosman Model 99.  To my dismay, it had been discontinued at the end of 1970.  I "settled" for a 622 which served me faithfully for many years, and is still in my collection.  Since I recently acquired and restored a Model 99 and more recently found a scope to go with it, I can finally say my Christmas is complete.

Is that a wood stock or plastic? Either way, that is a nice looking gun.

It's wood.  I stained it dark walnut, then put two coats of polyurethane over it.
