If more people knew this they probably wouldn't complain so much about how hard they are to pump.

i wonder if the same people that make  " Hop up mod parts " for Blue Streak s make the same for the HB series ?  Seems they are quite sturdy and might take a bit more performance mods ?

I'm not sure what performance parts you're talking about,  but I would be very surprised if there are any for these.

You'd have to do some decent mods to a 1322 to get this performance , what more would you want in a pistol this size ?

Oh I don't know ,  just 1000 's of pages of mods for my 1377. ,  seems i ve never seen an article on a HB power increase .  Maybe they can 't be modified like streaks .  Not that i d mess up a like new 38 year old pistol anyway , not my style.

Here's my E series I acquired in a trade. Resealed and hot rodded, I don't think the grips are original to it.

Looks like the ceiling...
Did I fall down again?

Lol was a test to see if I could post pics.

[Hoosier Daddy]

Looks like you figured it out.
NICE "E"!!

Did anyone see the factory polished brass H9 that recently sold on ebay?

I've only seen two of those,  that one being the second one.

Thanks, but the chipmunks and starlings beg to differ! I don't see much of an advantage souping up a shorter barreled CO2 pistol though. The nominal increase in velocity of a .177 pellet is offset by the reduced shot count, plus it's pretty loud.

Nice "E" ..What exactly is entailed in the "Hot Rodded" part of your post. I added a bit more valve volume to mine but so far that's all I could think of.

I would say you're probably right.
Racine Sheridan grips on a Crosman made Benjamin pistol is what I see

But it is Racine Benjamin-Sheridan so they may be transitional leftover Sheridan grips? Non of those airgun companies wasted stuff they had on hand. It is all speculation at this point.

Didn't notice the Racine before, as far as I've seen that bevel on the front of the breech is a Crosman thing so maybe this is a very late Racine gun from before Crosman moved production to their Bloomfied factory ?
Thinking about that I'll bet the crazy people at Crosman may very likely have used these grips.

Looks like a Crosman pistol and was mentioned as .177 in his next post, wouldn't expect Crosman to have put leftover S medallion grips on this pistol but with Crosman you never know I suppose.

That "seems right" but since it is a Racine gun if they found any Sheridan leftovers Crosman would have used them from what I have seen with what they did with variants and transitions even parts between models.

Of course it could be that any owner did it too.

[bantam5s]

I guess it would have to be a transitional gun if it has the Crosman look but Racine production.
Based on condition I would think it's original because who would replace wood with plastic unless there was damage, but these plastic ones do seem pretty nice so who knows.

I suppose theres no way to really say if they are original.

If one side got broken and that was what the owner found easily I can see it happening, but I agree if it had good wood grips most people would not choose to switch to those unless maybe for nostalgia? We will probably never know. I made this set of grips from a scrap of old chair back. They fit the grip frame good without the paintball stock.

The guy I did the trade with was always after more power, he also drag races...a speed demon. I know he brought the gun to Tim Schmidt and had him do what he could to make it shoot faster. I never had it chronied. It's a sweet shooter though, my favorite CO2 pistol.
