Crosman E9a refurb disaster

[Ormicron]

This gun threw me, am I correct in thinking this is really a Benjamin EB20? I have a brand new one in the box in 0.20, is there any point in contacting a Crosman service centre in the US like JG airguns? They seem cheap over there.

Yes, its the same pistol - just later production branded as Crosman.

I did check JG - he doesn't have that particular barrel/tube although I did notice he has them new for the H series pumpers.

I have had a dig in the spares dept and found a brand new barrel for a SSP250 Silhouette in .20 if that would help?

too big a diameter so would need turning down between centres which is a waste of a ssp 250 barrel really
best barrel to fit would be a soda straw barrel from a 1077

Steve,
I think I might have a barrel. We can talk when I see you next.

Load it up with nipped off cotton bud heads and it's a great wasp gun for the summer.. Or silver foil balls turned in a bit of tissue 😎

May not be to everyone's taste but this is how it ended up. .22 barrel from an old AGS PCR1 and now shoots nicely about 5.5 ft. lb. I also managed to get a good .20 to replace it in the collection.

Cracking job there!

I have one that I bought from a mate, I also bought one from the old Airgun forum but traded it against a couple of rifle stocks!

This one is a Crosman badged E9a..
