Comments:
This is a continuation of the Hahn/Crosman Model 45. It holds 6 BBs in
the rotating cylinder and 12 more in the spring-loaded feed
tube. This gun was rebuilt by Bryan and Associates. It has
better performance (muzzle velocity and accuracy) than is
typical of the Crosman Western BB guns. Performance: Measurements were made on 8/03/06 at a temperature of 86 ºF and 14' elevation. A ten shot string was fired from a bench rest at 15' using Crosman Copperhead BBs (5.1 gr). The highest velocity measured was 370 fps, the lowest was 330 fps (average of the 10-shot string was 355 fps). A five shot string fired with open sights grouped at 0.73".

Loading BBs: Pull the spring follower back all the way and load BBs until the tube is full. Rotate the cylinder to allow a BB to fall into each of the six chambers. Add six more BBs to the BB tube. |
 |
Loading CO2: Insert the CO2 cylinder into the valve seat and tighten (finger tight only -- no tools) the cylinder nut. Cock the gun and fire it two or three times to pierce the cylinder. Cocking the gun pierces the cylinder, not over tightening the cylinder nut. |
