Nickel Crosman 600

[droid]

Roy, I have been told by a few people that these were early sample guns built to a higher standard to impress would be stockists.
Sounds a good story so Im sticking with it!

That tallies with the info I have found too. My buddy in America, lives near the Crosman factory and has a collection of Crosman prototypes, mostly nickel plated. He got his from and knows knows the guy who commissioned them too Ingvar Alm (also from USA)

Seems strange to take all reference to "Crosman" off the pistol if they were examples to show stockists. Completely opposite to normal advertising and sales policy.

If they were pre production prototypes, they wouldn't be fully tooled up until they had gauged the reaction to the pistol perhaps.

Maybe the stamping man had an off day and missed a few.
Or the machine broke.
Or the girl who checked them had had a row with her boyfriend and was upset.

For purpose of sale I am still going with the special sample story tho!
Not that I am selling it.

Think they are just Chinese copies.

Hi everyone
Andy has recently sold his nickel crosman 600
to me.I have been on various forums checking
through any references to it.Very happy shoots
great and looks fantastic.Should i leave it gassed
or completely empty after each session ,and
how should nickel platted guns be cared for/cleaned?

[gingernut]

Don't leave it gassed for long periods.
Do use it.
Do use Verminpells.

I use a silicone cloth now and again.
Microfibre as well.

Think we are a very small owners club.

Hi
A very small club !
Thanks for tip
What sort of condition is your pistol!
I have only been collecting crosman 600s
for about 6 months and i have 2 boxed ones
finding a nickel was incredible good luck.
How many have been located so far?

[gingernut]

Very good condition and shoots well.
Added walnut grips this year.
Will send you a pic.

I only know of our two.
Droid was after one but I dont know if he got it.
