Title: Coldsider's Cantina
Post by: silent_airman on January 03, 2014, 11:57:16 AM
Coldsiders Unite! C'mon in and chill out all you CO2 gunners. Sorry, no blasters (PCP). Check your weapons at the door. ;D

I have 3 co2 guns


2400kt
Umarex Fusion
Gamo p25

Almost picked up a 75$ 60c, and still may as it is easy to drop in 1 or 2 12g carts and plink away

I like the looks of that gun. I have heard good things about the MM tuned guns.

How is the fusion? Is it effective for hunting purposes I would hope so because that thing is nearly silent.

I love my CO2 guns.... but just a little less in the winter.

My snow spitters:

MM tuned QB79  (.177)
2400KT x 2
2260

The QB79 is by far my favorite.

How does the 2260 compare to the QB79?

Don't know yet.  Moved the 2400KT steel breech to the 2260.  Didn't know that the rear breech screw location meant I needed to move the hammer as well.  Long story short, I'm waiting for a forum member to send me some new screws.  Haven't even shot the 2260 yet. 

The QB79 is very accurate and a pleasure to shoot.  Or it was until I lost a couple pellets behind the bolt.  I have to figure out how to take it apart.   I have three guns out of commission right now.  The 2400KT and 2260 both need breech screws.

OK…here goes..certainly not "blasters".

The only 3 co2 I’ve kept on co2 are all running on 12gr.  One scoped, one ‘peeped’, and one with open sights.

Way cool.

Yep, way beyond anything I can do, having no tools, no training, no aptitude, and no experience. :-\ I do envy you mechanical magicians.

  I love to shoot CO2.  Most of my shooting is done in the back yard at a range of 20 yards and CO2 provides more than enough power for that.  I have several old Crosman gas guns: A model 160, two 180's, two 400's, two 114's, a 113, 118 and a 112.  I have a small selection of older pump guns and a Discovery and shoot all of them.  I think I enjoy shooting with CO2 most of all.

Don't think I would have had the cajones to mod anything if my 2240 build hadn't gone so well, and that was largely due to this forum!

Did shoot some co2 yesterday.  Lucky enough to have an old outbuilding converted to my shop, with power, so turned on a heater...opened the shop door...and didn't really care how cold it was outside.
