[@joshuapurple4897]

like the little help serious of parts,custom mods ect and taking the 1322/1377 apart....will come in handy! I looked around for the video for the after serious.like the conclusion to the story sort of lol....you mentioned you would make a video showing you cronying the airgun so we could see how much power you gained ect...I looked and couldnt find it? so exsactly what did happen? trigger get any better? hows the power now compared to before? Also how many pumps do you have to pump it to get to max power? thanks

+Joshua Purple Yes, everything got better. The power is 100 fps faster. I pump a max of 15 pumps to get 540 fps. Trigger is 3 lbs pull and very crisp.

[@fistofthenorthstar9010]

All that work and money. You only get 100 FPS. ? So what was the baseline before mod? About 450? Then you spent 150$-200$. And it’s only at 550fps. ?

Wouldn't it be easier to have done this while the gun was dissemble, enjoyed watching this series, always looking for things that I can do to maybe improve my gun

Well interesting little playlist, mostly to see how to take it apart and put it back together. Didn't put any actual new parts in mine but I like to know how to take it apart and service things if needed, did tweak the trigger a little bit but that's about it. I'll leave the pistol as it is, a fun decent plinker that's less work compared to refilling the fx ranchero with the handpump when I want to shoot a few simple things. It did make the trigger pull a reasonable bit lighter and smoother and I think it got a slight velocity improvement both with projectile velocity and consistency from cleaning and relubing the internals. I could say the obvious condescending thing: "that's a lot of money spent on mods for a pistol barely worth even a quarter of it". But it's not a bad platform modifying a stock product into a better functioning tool/weapon is always an interesting project. Not the paint job or grip style I'd pick but it does look aesthetically pleasing and probably fits your hands well which is all that matters in the end. I'm kinda tempted now to find out what the extremes are that some people may have pushed this framework to, provided the components can handle the pressures built up by the pump I reckon you could push it pretty far considering it has a fairly long barrel for a pistol.
