I am going to buy a 21" HW barrel blank and modify it to the 1077. Just to see what it wil do. I am thinking more accurate and a litle more fps? Or more accurate and less accurate?

Someone wana tell me what it might come out to be?


Ok I am totaly buying everything new for my gun. 3-9x32 power scope with a 2000ft lasermounted to it, Universal bipod that holds on like a scope, the longer 21" barrel, and a threaded muzzle break that looks like the can. I cant wait till I finish it.

Buy a clamp on bayonet lug while you're at it; a completely useless yet neat looking accessory for anything! The longer barrel MIGHT give you an increase in accuracy, but it wouldn't be because of the length...by the time the pellet has exited the crosman barrel, it has taken all the air that it can. And since we don't have to worry about burning up all the powder in a cartridge (one of the reasons for higher velocities in pistol caliber carbines), the extra length will, in all odds, not contribute much to the velocity...However, I would NOT doubt if the barrel quality is better in the aftermarket barrel you would be installing, as the crosman barrel seems fairly run of the mill, anything's gotta be better than that!
