Picked up a model 342 today for $60

Any way to put a scope on this?

the gun is 44years old so I'm not drilling holes or doing any permanent mods.

If not I'm good with the way it is as its a dead on shooter and it's way better than I thought a gun this old could be. It's just my eyes are not as good as the gun.

 You can also try a set of Crosman B272 mounts, 15 bucks from Academy.  Just don't try to torque them down to tight.

Will level if I push on it in mid.
Hasn't troubled me yet but one day I'll check in to that.

Not sure why my phone is putting pics backwards on here.

Thx for suggestions for scope mounts.

Haven't tried the Crosman mounts yet, but ditto the Mac 1 mount above. Though, at $50, Mac1 is pricey for me.

[Rob112o]

I got some mounts for sale if you would like. Both the 4 piece Crosman mount and the 2 piece Sheridan mount.

You can find cheaper mounts, but the Mac-1 will not cause barrel separation & is rock solid. I have them on my two 342s & my Blue & Silver Streaks. It can also be used as a breech or a scout mount depending on your scope & preference.

nice old benji! congrats!

[jaraxle1zx]

Kinda messed up.

I have these pellets, I've not been able to shoot them out of any gun and hit a target.

Rabbit hunter or bunny magnums, I forget what it's called but I put one in the Benjamin and nothing, didn't even shoot.

So I take cleaning rod and push pellet back out and put in a jsb.
Gun shoots jsb but sounds like it lost power.

I'm pretty deep in the darkside right now and don't plan on fixing this any time soon.
I could use some 25jsb jumbos and 30jsb 44gr (hint hint).

Hit me a pm/email

Oh man! I just bought a Blue Streak but I have been wanting a 342 project...
PM inbound...

She's gonna kill me.

[longhunter]

yep. you're a dead man, Scott. you did write me into your will, like I asked you to, didn't you??

[Hoosier Daddy]

I have had a "342 wanted" classified here for a while, I hope it happens.

She'll get over it... if the deal goes through that is.
I got last quarters profit sharing check coming any day so it won't noticed until it shows up at the door.
Actually she is very understanding to my addictions. Heck I got 6 motorcycles in various stages of repair. 

[jaraxle1zx]

Remember how someone pointed out that the pump stock sat a lil funny?
That arm is a little bit bent also.

Really could use the pellets over a sale.
And remember the dern rabbit magnum pellets?  They group at a foot 25 yards and seems to destroy old Benjamin's?

I can throw in a few tins of these to sweeten the deal.  Lol

[jaraxle1zx]

Sorry couldn't help myself from making that joke. If it wasn't for shipping cost I would give the pellets away.
