Canada AirGun Freak

I began documenting my AirGun Collection & myriad of AirGun related information online only a few years ago.
This BlogSpot blog has been my favorite format, but there is another of my  "Canada AirGun Freak" blog's up on WordPress🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫

Until recently, there was only one post at my WordPress blog, and so, I have a little catching up to do🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫

A.V HellBoy M4 Tactical Co2 rifle gets a Quad-rail Handguard!

I've written about, and photographed my Air Venturi HellBoy M4 Tactical .177cal. Co2 BB Rifle a number of times.

It is one of my favorite AirGuns, although, I wish I could upgrade it for .22 caliber lead roundball, instead of .177cal/4.5mm steel BB.

Presently, my HellBoy M4 has an aluminum alloy quad-rail handguard with my angled forgrip attached, and the stock has a US Army rubber buttstock recoil pad.

Any one of my gun lights work with this AirGun, and are much easier to use now that the quad rail is on the gun.

Crosman Stinger R34 Spring Piston 6mm M4 Replica Airsoft Gun

I bought my Crosman Stinger R34 Spring Piston Airsoft Gun fom pyramydair dot com in 2012. It was the clear model and it was less than $50 CDN.
The Stinger R34 comes with a thin nylon 2 point shoulder sling, a faux reflex dot sight that is actually a clear plastic window with cross hairs printed in the middle of the window. It is adjustable for horizonal settings but not vertical.
I would definitely toss the faux optic.
The non-adjustable iron sights replicate the look of the A2 front sight and the rear sight has two apurtures, both with the same sized peep hole, but one is taller than the other, which is a clever workaround for not having adjustability, at least you can switch peeps to raise or lower your shot.
The functioning charging handle cocks the action and compresses the mainspring

I  shoot paper targets in my living room with paper targets & acardboard box stuffed with old jeans as a BB trap with lower powered softair BB guns and pistols.
My Stinger R34 is the fastest shooting of all my spring airsoft pistols and long guns.
My other "long gun" is a Umarex Trophy Hunter Pump Action BB Shotgun that shoots .12 gram BB's around 200 fps.
The M4/XM177 replica Stinger R34 can shoot .20 gram BB's harder than the Trophy Hunter, and it has a metal barrel, so I would consider it to be the superior airsoft long gun.

I have upgraded my R34 with a few coats of Krylon Fusion "for plastic" black paint, minimalist tactical butt stock and a picatinny/Weaver rail mounted on the top of the carry handle so I can attach a variety of reflex dot sights or scopes.

"G.K.ARMS" TTD-22 Custom

This is my first Custom Co2 pistol which for fun, I have named : 'G.K ARMS' TTD-22 Custom, which stands for : "Tactical Tack Driver .22 caliber"

I have a pair of stock Crosman 2240's and after shooting them for 7 or 8 years, I finally bit the bullet and spent a few weeks browsing online and found inspiration on eBay.
I was able to buy a slick 3D printed ABS polymer dual picatinny/Weaver rail, an O-LIGHT 450 lumen compact pistol light and a micro red/green dot sight.
I also put the new style grips taken from a P1322 multi-pump pneumatic air pistol. I think the new grip design looks more appropriate for this pistol than the grips it came with.

It's pretty easy to turn a $100 Co2 pistol into a $300 Co2 pistol!

I think the pistol looks great now, and I can't wait for the weather to warm up a bit so I can take it out for some early morning, or late night target practice/plinking 😎

This optic + light set up might be the ideal rig for inner city plinking.
Here in Canada, municipal "no discharge" by-laws make it difficult to enjoy your target pistols unless you have access to private land, outside of these "no discharge" areas.

Crosman 2240 Co2 pistol picatinny rail upgrade!

I own a pair of the .22cal/5.5mm  Crosman  2240 Co2 Pistols, and this is a Co2 pistol worth owning more than one of.

The Crosman 2240 is the Co2 pistol that helped spark my interest in the earlier Co2 and pneumatic air pistols that Crosman and Benjamin created and sold from the 1940's thru the present day.

I also own a pristine & rare variant of the Crosman model 150 .22 caliber Co2 pistol that is considered to be the Grand-Daddy of today's model 2240.
Mine was made around 1955 and is branded : Hawthorne Montgomery Ward Co. "M-150".

Anyways, up until now, to mount an optic on my 2240 pistol, I have a few of Crosman's dovetail barrel mounts + various ' dovetail to picatinny/Weaver rail ' adapters that work ok, but since they are clamped to the barrel, I have to sight then in everytime I take the pistol out shooting.
I could buy a steel breach that has a dovetail groove which is an expensive upgrade, and I have done ok with the barrel mounted rail plus a picatinny riser/adapter to attach optics that only cost me $20 for the mount & adapter.

I was browsing through eBay and looking at what airgun   products were available and I saw a nifty picatinny/Weaver rail that someone designed and manufacturered with a 3D printer.
I took a chance, and ordered one a couple of days ago.

This Rail cost me $30 plus $11 shipping, which is still considerably less than the steel breach upgrade.

It took a couple of weeks, but the dual rail arrived.

I installed the 3d printed dual picatinny rail on to one of my Crosman 2240 Co2 pistols, and it is awesome looking!
I am going to have fun with this Co2 pistol this summer, especially with one of my high power gun lights attached to the under rail!
