Two guns come to my mind the Daisy 880 and the 1322

1322 pistol, I put a long steel breech and LPA rear sights on,...it's my frogs gun
Now I didn’t see that one coming. Makes total sense too. Now frogs at night with with 1322 would be fun.

Frogs on Oahu? More invasive exotics, I assume.

Yes, Cane toads

terrible buggers and you can't even eat them.

I really like my 2240. It does have some upgrades, I'm installing a hdd now.

Cane toads? Yuck. Do you have a thread on that?

Another favorite would be a kit I put together with an SPA CP-1 and the Master Blaster stock set.

Bill,
That is a sweet looking pistola & carbine! I really like the pistol grip end cap is removable and stock mounts to the pistol end cap.

Thanks Randy... I love the little warm weather kit. I had a great UTG 4x32 AO scope in the kit but robbed it for another gun.

Daisy 856 with "Guns by Bubba" hose clamp barrel shroud tensioner, and delrin high front sight to match the rear daisy adjustable peep.
Someone messed up the barrel shroud so I had to clamp it via hose clamp. I secured the muzzle end of the pencil barrel with some tubing and it is accurate. Took a starling with it the other day.

Here is another. "Shop Gun" of mine...... My B-3 " The Junk Yard Dog "

This is a shop gun if there ever was one ....and it is... Seriously Accurate out to 30 Yds.

The temps have been at or above 32 F this week and I have lost about 22 inches of snow.

My targets have all Magically appeared out of the snow bank.

To celebrate the warm weather and my good fortune I broke out the B-3 and did a little off-hand shooting.

Here are some spinner hits that I did with it today... the hits were all in the high center of the orange spinner.

The shots were at 25 Yds. No Wind & the Temp was +32 F.

The Pellets were Daisy 7.2 Pointed Pellets. This gun likes it's pellets..Cheap & Nasty

Best Wishes - Tom

Really enjoying the posts. Thanks for the response let's keep it going. Shot one of my older shop guns this weekend and just can,t get it to shoot like I want. It's the legacy pump with a metal 2100 clamshell receiver. It will remain in shop and when I have spare time it will get torn apart to see if I can figure out the problem. Mike

Looks pretty fun. Those B-3s scare my fingers. Too many "Example" pics when I first learned about springer safety.

The B-3 is a junk yard dog.......it'll bite you.. if you are not careful with it.

I have a short 3/4 hex bolt that I can drop in, for a mechanical block, to prevent any chopped fingers.

If you hang on to the cocking handle you are safe too.

Hatsan Edge .25 cal springer. Think it was about $90 after discounts and Bullseye bucks. Tuned and now rides in a Webley Spector stock I had sitting in the corner. Painted satin black, Testors model paint for the grey accents, couple coats of Duplicolor clear truck bed liner for whatever abuse it might take and a Vokul holographic red dot sight.

This is my 1322 carbine. It hangs next to my back door with a tin of CPHP. Used for starling duty.

LOL.... I named mine "FooManChew".

Just depends...I usually grab a pistol for backyard target shoot. If plugging backyard pigeons I'll grab something in the 7 -20 fpe range.

Lol I get it. Fitting names for both.

I mentioned a week and a half ago that I went to visit a pellet shooting booth at a fishing show. The young man had a "trusting" way of loading pellets in a break barrel. If he only knew they can "bite"... BUT I didn't want to tell him how to do his job.

I got this Cr 38T for $5 at a yard sale. It was REAL rough. Probably was rode hard and put away wet for awhile then spent a couple decades in a mouldy basement. Turned out to be a very early 1st var. with a brass valve. I took it apart completely. Cleaned everything. Then I stripped and repainted the frame with a metallic charcoal auto paint and did a complete reseal. The pistol grip anchor posts were both broken so I rebuilt them with Quick Steel. I don't like to alter vintage guns but this one really called for it.
