Rez 4,961 Posted February 28, 2016 Report Share Posted February 28, 2016 Bang a image of the catcher up when it's done lad... Never owned a rat catcher. Shot one, once and shot a rabbit from about 15 yards. Years ago now. 1 Quote Link to post

moxy 617 Posted February 29, 2016 Report Share Posted February 29, 2016 Ideally you need to change the breech for an all steel one and change the transfer port. That will be the biggest cost initially. The rest is just bling as you go along. Plenty of parts for them on evilbay but Gmac will be the place to shop. If you do replace the breech it is important you use the correct sized screwdriver. The screw located beneath the pellet probe is tiny and has a habit of the head snapping. You will have fun and games if that happens. http://www.gmaccustomparts.com/epages/BT3197.mobile/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/BT3197/Categories/Crosman_2250b&Locale=en_GB Quote Link to post

moxy 617 Posted February 29, 2016 Report Share Posted February 29, 2016 You will also need a new probe and handle to go with the breech. But don't get the extended one. It makes it a right fiddly fecker to load the pellets. The breech will come self finnish. So it will need blueing or coating. Quote Link to post
