well i asked my dad if i could post something on the forum and he said yes so here is my customized 2240
this is my favorite gun to shoot 8)
these are the mods i did to my 2240:
-shoulder stock
-14" barrel
-steel breech
-long nose bolt and probe
-trigger shoe
- custom made muzzel brake (thanks dad)

so here are some pics:

stock 2240

first round of mods

last round of mods (for now :twisted: )

This is the funnest gun to work on for me (qb78D is fun too though) and i had to do all of the work (besides the muzzel brake) which made it even funner

so that is my customized 2240 and i love it - the reson why i baught a 2240 is becouse of Bluemoon and his 2240 so then i wanted one customized for me

Well done Brennan. Look forward to maybe shooting a couple pellets with it eh?

Mods, I will vouch for Brennan as a thoughtful and respectful young man. If he can have a membership then I support him.

Atta boy Brennan good for you. Gopher season will show how well your efforts have produced for that little carbine.

Congrats

Thanks Kim
the one thing i still want to do is bulk fill it (we have a nitrogen bottle) so why not?? and we wont have to go through 100's of co2's everyother month

i cant wait untill gopher season :twisted: :twisted: accurate to about 25-40 yards (not bad for a carbine)
those gophers wont stand a chance with my dads condor and AA-410 :twisted: :axe: :twisted:
hope to see you at the next meet :wink:

i actualy found that about 6 months ago i was about to get it but then i heard of a story that it blew up after they filled it. so that is why i didnt get it BUT if they have made it safer to use then i might get it becouse since i do all of my mods i dont want to risk it blowing up (if i dont do it right) and it would be very easy to use it becouse i can switch between co2 and nitrogen :D... i dont mind if i need to put new valve seals or transfer-port seals or other seals in i just want it to be safe
would love to get it IF it is safe (cheap,inexpensive and east to use)

Brennan

I absolutely love my HI PAC. I am positive judging from it,s robust build that is is safe. However to be absolutely sure I only pump it up to 2000 psi and I have put a .177 transfer port in, instead of the stock .22 one and I,m getting 25 good shot,s and still legal. 500 fps. only 25 to 30 pump,s to refill. Quicker than changing a C02 caplet. The kit comes with a better seal and extra spring,s for various power level,s.
