I could wish for a Tackdriver quality build for $400.. ...I especially like his fat boy build... My MK based build compared... now that is like a vw compared to a bit of a hot 914 (say 160 hp) ...back in the 80's the Bowket designed pumpers were ~$300Your wish has been granted.This gun started as a well used Ebay 140.Converted the blow off valve to a modern hammer valve.MRod trigger, Challenger barrel and steel breech.Power adjuster and metal barrel band.Modded stock for longer LOP etc.An all wood and metal 362 with a 2100 stroke (5") would be sweet.I wish they could build that MF for $400... they would probably go broke trying...iirc it makes about 22 fpe as a .22 in just 12 pumps... it does show just what is possible when you can easily buy lego parts and blend them with your own work...what year was the Crosman pump tube...1960s..? 1950s..? Crosman's pumper history an all is among the intangibles that made me buy in... not that I think everything is as good as it was... The old 2100 was advertised as a 725 fps rifle and was...now the marketing dept is in charge :'( but I did put a old piston in my 2100b the bones are still there... the 362 with a 5" stroke could make a large valve possible... would allow about .4" x 1.5" of extra valve volume (.19 ci ish) for a total of about .29 ci... about the volume of a 392... about 1/3 the volume of a 24" .22 barrel or 19" .25 barrel... which is about what you want...so lets see the swept volume would be about 1.5 ci... so 1.79 ci squeezed into .29 ci gives a compression ratio of about 6.2 to one... so would be adding about 90 psi per stroke @14.5 psi ambient... so to get to 1500 psi would take 17-18 or so pumps...low to mid 20s for fpe in .22 with 14.3g would be my expectations... still using a pump cup...point is there are lot's of options open with the 362 6.5" long stroke if one is trading pump stroke for valve volume... enough to have Steroid 392 type power...or just a stock 362 in .177 with just a long barrel that can send 13g monsters out at about 700 fps on 8 pumps... guess I just have a thing for supporting the lego platform...

Me I will always have a soft spot for pumpers... even just a slightly tuned 2100b...Decided I liked how they did the Receiver even if it is plastic...The wrinkle finish near fools into thinking it is cast zamack...of course will shoot it a bit here and there... https://www.crosman.com/product/crosman-legacy-1000-one-hundred-year-edition
