Q:

A.C.’s Crosman 2240 Up-Grades (pics)

This gun is very fun to shoot and very versatile as i’m sure most of you know. I’ve had the gun for a few years now and i mostly shoot it in my garage to keep me somewhat sharp for my PB pistols. The first thing i did a while back was to take it to MAC-1 to get him to replace a few o-rings and to do a basic accuracy package. I then later bought some nice grips from MAC-1 but i also wanted a longer barrel. I would later and more recently purchase a 14″/.22 Crosman barrel from Mac-1. With the addition of the 14″ barrel, the guns velocity went from 460 FPS with 14.3 gr CP’s to the NOW 545 FPS with 15.9 gr JSB’s. And if any of you either know TIM or some of your guns have any work done by him, you know he does a VERY NICE JOB which i’m sure doesn’t need to be said.

After getting my gun up to date (sorta), there still was a certain look to my gun that i wanted now. I still somewhat wanted it to keep it’s pistol look but, i kinda wanted it to also have that rifle like appearance. Hope that makes sense. Well, long story short, i literally stumbled upon Alejandro’s (A.C.) website and immediately, i found parts for my 2240 that would give my gun the look i wanted. After finding the exact parts i wanted, i contacted AC via email and asked him a few questions and he immediately responded to my emails and answered all my initial questions. AC quoted me a price for what i wanted and then told me when he could start on the parts and when he would be shipping them out. That’s more than what i expected. Once my parts were shipped, i immediately received a tracking number and then the wait began. After receiving my parts and opening them, it was very refreshing to see that AC provided very simple and easy to follow assembly instructions.

I know, I know, more PICS and less talking please..LOL.

The gun in its beginning stages of TRANSFORMATION

Next stage was to add a .22 cal, 14″ barrel from MAC-1

Now comes parts from A.C. Here is the gun posing with its new clothes….lol

Adding the A.C. parts

Bolting on the very nice shoulder stock

Now the entire gun with all parts installed

A few more views of the gun


Stats:
Length of gun – 37.5″
Weight of gun – 3 lbs 12.5 ounces
Barrel length – 14″
Caliber of gun – .22
Velocity w/JSB’s – 545 FPS
Power Source – 12 GRAM CO2
Accuracy at distance – TO BE DETERMINED AT A LATER DATE

I am very happy with my gun now. I love the way it looks and feels and shoulders and points. Oh yeah, and she is very quiet also now. I again would like to thank AC for making such fine parts and being so easy to deal with. I will definitely do business with him again and will endorse his products whenever i can….LOL.

Heyyyyy, those are some nice 2240’s. Well done guys.

Yep, that the only thing left to do to this gun…..internal work.

quote 80 GRIT:

Here’s the last one I built. Modified Crosman valve, polished internals, transfer port mod…pushing CP 14.3 gr 570fps (10″ barrel)

That looks preaty sweet with the short barrel…nice work 80

quote maw:

That is excellent for a short barrel.

I am a true believer in “polishing” all internals now…it really makes a difference. The Transfer Port mod with countersunk poly tube is a must as well!

Oh, and I forgot to mention, being 97 degrees in my garage where I keep my co2 and do my crony tests didn’t hurt either 😉

Let see your 2240’s

Crow popper. I love it. It was cheap being a TASCO but cause the gun has absolutely no recoil the red dot just last and last. I think i’ve had it for about ummmm 3 years now with absolutely no problems. And to be a tasco, the thing holds its settings very well. Only when i mess with taking the gun apart do i have to resight in. I’ve shot it out to like 45-50 yrds and i was surprised that i was hitting things out that far with that Red Dot.

80G, i will do just that. 600 is the number i’ve wanted to originally get to. Now that i have the barrel, its time to dig into that valve and do some SWEETISH massaging….lol

nice gun
i just got my new toy an CB Tomcat i also have a red dot it is pretty sweet on it
how do you like the dot?

Have to agree about the quality of work that A.C. does. I have several of his pieces and could not be happier.

Good choice of gun and excellent after-market additions.

Very nice! Yeah, Alejandro is a great guy. He has done a few things for me in the past. Gotta love these “lego” guns 😆

If you work on that valve (port and polish) and polish up the inside of frame, and hammer, etc. You should be able to get around 600 fps.

Go enjoy that piece!
