It just needs a steel breech, a threaded barrel, and 2 more caliber options.

There we go forgetting the Sheridan fans, how about .20

OOPS - my bad! I grew up on a Racine Sheridan, and they are the smoothest pumpers ever, with an excellent trigger. I wish I had three of them new in the box.

I found a larger image and this listing for it - https://www.midwayusa.com/product/1023242259

If the length of 36" is accurate than it would appear that tube length AND barrel length are close to 20.5-21"

You guys think a 1322 steel breech is going to fit this one?

avator · « **Reply #65 on:** February 06, 2021, 04:31:36 PM »

Not if it's a soldered barrel.

Bill you have to look... it has a 13xx breech and barrel is not soldered...Of course the steel breech will fit...

avator · « **Reply #67 on:** February 06, 2021, 04:50:56 PM »

WOW... I thought I read somewhere it was soldered.... my bad.

Crosman knows we're not going to be able to leave this thing stock. 🤣

O’kay. I just gotta stick my oar in. I surmise that Crosman would want to keep development costs down and maintain compatibility with the existing “LEGO” guns. It makes a lot of sense from a manufacturing and marketing perspective. Use the existing 13XX plastic breech. It is in production and it is cheap. This creates an upgrade market for the also in production steel breech. This is a marketing no brainer. I also expect the Crosman custom shop will introduce some interesting upgrades to this platform.

Had a look back... I guess this answers that.... again, my bad.

Oh yeah - long steel breech and this one should get good power at 6-8 pumps - I can't wait to check one out. Midway has them on the site (but not in stock), but not Pyramyd - wonder why?

The steel breech is a no brainer. It will be so much easier to add optics to this than the 392. Kinda curious about the trigger too. I'm thinking the same or similar to a 2260. I wonder if the m-rod trigger group can be swapped in without too much work if that's the case. As for power, it sounds like this one will have plenty - I might just leave the pump alone. Then again, I know myself. I'll probably buy 2, and really get into the guts of the second one (and eventually the first one too, after I'm done finding out what works on the second one)!

I am more and more curious about this rifle. Looks like it may equal or surpass the old model 140/1400, performance-wise. Really something new. I personally see no need for .25 caliber, with all the heavy .22 pellets available.

Marc · « **Reply #74 on:** February 07, 2021, 12:22:51 PM »

I agree - 0.22 cal. is probably optimal for this one. 0.25 would be a fun option.

I was about to take the dive on a $300 1322 project, but said "I'll wait and see if anything new comes out this year". For once it actually worked!!!

I was just about to invest in a PCP back at New Years. I agonized about it until I decided that what I REALLY wanted was another Crosman 1400. So I found one. Now I have two. And eventually I will have a 362.

I have noticed Midway gets out ahead of the ball, so to speak... It is not uncommon for them to advertise things that are not in production yet.

Rabbit\Squirrel Killer · « **Reply #77 on:** February 08, 2021, 12:26:06 AM »

I might buy one, I would buy it with a hardwood stock in a heart beat.

I really don't need another pumper! so I'd buy it, yep that's what a Guy does.

In other news - I have the other 362 it's a Benjamin.
It's a C02 rifle, light weight, and wood!

Marc · « **Reply #78 on:** February 08, 2021, 11:56:30 AM »

Agreed!!! If the only caliber they ran it in was .22 would be fine - I'd much rather see a wood stock option than a .25 cal. option.

Tom Tucker · « **Reply #79 on:** February 08, 2021, 01:16:14 PM »

While I don't disagree, it sure would be cool if a .25 cal barrel for lego guns got added to the Crosman parts bin...

Thank you to our advertisers!
