I just want something I dont have to fill and be able to shot some critters and have some fun.

I was looking at one of the crosman rifles with gas ram.

I sure miss that rifle but I dont miss the money I had sunk into it.

Then it started to actually cock and not shoot like the damn safety was on that was removed. Then it started not cocking. When I get time I will really have to look into it and see if I can see what the damn hang up is.

It has to be the trigger group hammered to shit from the heavy spring.

It is just strange how in a day it went from it not shooting to not cocking.

Walter,
If I get another one made of the same material and install what is to stop it from happening again? I really dont shoot my rifle all that much. I am guessing since I have customized it I have only shot it maybe 250 times so that valve stem head failed that quickly.

Any suggestions?
