Title: My idea what a 2260 should be
Post by: Van on June 21, 2015, 04:13:46 PM

(http://i1330.photobucket.com/albums/w562/Van0315/64091f14-3f5e-4198-ab55-96048340b5e6_zpsysj1ek6x.jpg) (http://s1330.photobucket.com/user/Van0315/media/64091f14-3f5e-4198-ab55-96048340b5e6_zpsysj1ek6x.jpg.html) The previous post about a now out of business stock maker made me remember I had one of his walnut" finish it yourself" stocks on my 2260.  I must have been lucky as I got a beautiful stock about 2 weeks after the order.  I added an aluminum RJ breech, custom valve, TKO, and a Bryan and Associates brass trigger.  I made a rear sight mount from 7/16" metal tube for a Thompson Center adjustable sight that I can move back and forth for best sight picture.  It has a set screw to hold in place and uses a brass post sight on the TKO.  I try not to remember how much I spent, but I wanted one that suited my idea of a custom gun.  It hits 675 fps with the Mountain Air valve and Super Domes in summer.  I can get about 20 shots per cartridge before fps drop off.
