This Crosman M-1 Carbine was restored using two beaten up M-1's.  Each of the two airguns had enough usable parts to build one nice looking M-1.

Crosman 114 Restore
Michael in California sent his Grandpa's Crosman 104 to us to be restored to look as it had just come out of the box.  Michael's air rifle is one of the rarest Crosman airguns.  The 104 was made for a few month's between 1949 and 1950.  The 104 was completely taken apart and each part was cleaned.  The steel parts were sanded down to remove rust and were reblued.  The receiver, barrel, and air tube were stripped and repainted to match the 104's original finish.  The wood was stripped, sanded, stained, and poly'd to match the original "Blonde" color wood that the airguns looked like.  A Crosman 104 is an airgun that you only see a few of in a life time.  We are honored that Michael chose us to restore the airgun for him.

Dave in Arkansas wanted his old Crosman 111 and Crosman 116 so he sent them to us to be restored.  Both of the airguns were completely disassembled and cleaned.  Next the old finish was removed.  The breech, barrel, and airgun tube were painted to match the factory finish.  The grip frames were also refinished using a crinkle style paint to match the original finish.  Lastly, both of them were reseal.

I picked up a Crosman 600 at an auction, it was in rough shape.  Our restore consisted of removing the old paint, priming, and then applying several coats of paint.   The internals were cleaned, polished.  Old seals, o-rings, and valve stem, valve spring were replaced.  Missing parts were installed and broken pieces were replaced.  Lastly, a set of Walnut grips from www.rbgrips.net were added.

James in Alabama wanted his Crosman 140 to look new again.  So he had us re-blue barrel, air tube, and other steel parts.  The trigger guard was repainted.  The stock was striped, sanded, and minor marks were removed.  Next it was covered in a protective coating.  The picture does not how just how nice the grain of the wood looks being restored.  We also resealed his Crosman 140 to replace the worn seals, o-rings, springs, and check valve.
