1377-Type My 1322! Packer Pester and Plinker

[MichaelHunt]

Here's the current form of my 1322, one of my favorites to pack around everywhere.

I've put a number of nice accessories on it!

From Pyramid Air, the steel breech.
From Alchemy Airwerks, the stainless bolt with extended probe and stainless cocking handle, a flat top HP valve and brass flat top piston, a stainless steel safety, and a stronger hammer spring.
From Magnum-Airpower, a magnum hammer and an aluminum trigger cover.
From Alliance Hobby, cherry wood grips and forearm, and the Stainless shoulder bolt.
I got the threaded barrel band from an Ebay seller, the silencer from Buck Rail, and the BSA 2x20 pistol scope off of Amazon.

I am getting around 520 fps with 15 pumps and 15.85 gr pellets.

Man there is nothing like a sweet 13xx. In my world of PCPs I keep a few around. 2 are bone stock (for now) and one is a carbine built from Buck Rail stuff

That's an inspirational rig. May have to build an ultimate 1322 some day; but would probably go for a carbine build.

Right on that's a sweet carbine!

The carbine mods look really nice for sure! I'm keeping this one in pistol form just so it is easier to throw in a pack.

Ok, I have a bone stock 1322 that hangs on the wall in my “airgun vault”. I’ve done nothing with it. It was a very early purchase, just to have something to plink in the back yard. I’ve never even done that. This post has me seriously reconsidering my lack of attention to this matter. I may need to explore the possibilities of having some metal components ordered up for it.

At least a steel breech

Watch out, once you get going it is pretty easy to turn your $60 airgun into a $300 airgun! lol. I really like it, compact and self-contained, and easy to work on. One bit of advice, be careful of the little spring and tiny ball bearing that put tension on the safety, they are very easy to lose after getting your gun apart!

Hi Mike,
Was wondering if, in your changes, if you came across a small enough washer to raise the "breech screw" so that pellets did not hang up during loading. Or any other solution. I have found that unscrewing the screw 1/2 turn does the job but I would feel better with it tightened down.
Thanks in advance for any information.
Best regards,
Wally

Hey Wally
Try 1 or 2 turns of solid core 22 gauge wire under the head of the breech screw.

Been there done that, don’t think the ball bearing could be any smaller. Fortunately, a magnet saved me!

How did you get the stuff from Alliance Hobby? I tried to get some stuff from them, but it is like vaporware. You place an order, your card gets charged, and nothing ever ships. They’ve got an F rating from the Better Business Bureau.

Apparently the guy that runs it was sick for a while. Really messed things up.

Hope he is well now, but he should shut his website down then instead of taking orders he can’t fill.
