I was just given a 1979 model in mint condition last week. Belonged to my Father-in-Law's stepmother(She's in her 80's) father who bought it an maybe used it once or twice. I am in my 40's now and the 760 was my childhood dream bb rifle, and who would have thought all of these years later I would be given one..
Back in the day, I determined that the iron sights were more accurate than a scope because they were mounted on the barrel and the reciever could move in relation to the barrel. I wore at least one of these out.
My dad gave me his childhood original pumpmasrer looks just like this shoots 800 fmps on crono and never been rebuilt in 52 years at the most he is 57. I got it in 02 I'm 30 now. I git a newer one to and it sucks compared to the metal and wood ones
Got one from the pawnshop couple weeks ago! The pump arm and stock are made of wood. Probably going to need a seal kit too. Just tried working on it yesterday. Didn't know about the self cocking part, thought it was broken ☹️🤦♂️!
Was hoping to see the disassembly, reseal procedures and reassembly. Not much information on the brass bolt action models. I did mine, but took 3-times longer due my inability to find any technical information.
My goodness I haven't seen one of those in ages I got mine in 1968 I was 13 and got acrossman 760 it must have been just like the one you had I can't remember good to see it again
Mine as a teen was somewhere around 1975 to 78 ..it has the brass bolt and wood fore stock.. Still have it but does not pump up. Only thing missing on it is the elevator for the rear sight and one screw in the magazine
I had the same problem with mine and it's 20 years old but I did not take it apart all I did was lightly lube the pump cup with RWS silicone oil and then I turned it upside down and started pumping it and pumping it many times and suddenly it started to build pressure and now it seems to be shooting at full power with 10 pumps however when I'm finished with it I pump it up 3 pumps and then I put it away,
Actually back in the day I had a daisy pump and traded mine to that 760 just like the one you have had a lot of fun with it bring back a lot of memories actually took a squirrel with it
fantastic video , I have a few of these parts laying around and had forgotten what they where to and on power and pump comes down to wording , pump master just sounds a little off
That brings back some memories from 1969 to 73. They were great for disposing of pigeons under a couple of bridges across the Holston River. TVA guards then didn't mind letting a few teenagers decrease the population. Very nice sir.
Nice video on the R&R of the original 760 Power Master. I have 2 variations, of this, one has the round interface of wood stock and action, the other is squared, One sill in pieces on the bench waiting for me to dig back into it, sometime soon I hope.
Great job on the rebuild, but that's actually a 3rd variant, made in 1974-1975. Variant 1 had a wooden stock and a wooden forearm with slots carved into in, earning it the nickname "Tootsie Roll." also your version has the slots on top to mount a scope which V1 didn't have, and the "Checkered Styrene stock & smooth wood forearm" of V3.
yesterday i got a 1966 western auto Revelation bb repeater 177 PELL ..Great shape brass lever . just dont hold air . cant hear it it just punps. everything is tight . so here we go . how do i get it to pump air. im looking for fixes. i really didnt want to do a tear down . always seem to not go back the way it was suposed to. . guessing a 40 year old gun needs oilrings replaced.. by opening the pump on the barrel the foam gasket in there still looks good . hope i can get her fixed...stock is all solid wood ? all metal . even the sights are metal . im proud of being the new owner . they dont make them like this anymore...dam i just wish it would shoot
I wish you had shown how to put it back together I've got the exact and it's got way more parts than the later ones do if you could show how to put that thing back together again all the little parts would be awesome
I've had mine since 1972 it when it stopped working and it moved with me 2,000 miles away waiting for the time when somebody would show me how to fix it I'm ready to fix it but I do need more. Help thank you
My first 760 was bought new in about 1977. It had the brass bolt. SOLID not hollow plastic stock and the slick no checker real WOOD forearm. Its long gone. Was the variant I described sold in 1977 or am I mistaken? I am very sure it had the features I described. I want to replace what I had exactly.
Any advice on where to find a good teardown on the old pumpmaster 760. Think mines a 1966. does not have pat.number, says pat pending on mine. It's shurley an old one. Nothing works on it. lol. Would love to restore it, get it working again. Also found a nice american classic 1377 pistol I've already restored it. a 4-1980.
Did that. Now, sometimes it won't cock on the first pump. Instead, it releases a puff of air right away. After multiple pumps it cocks and fires just fine. @@WalnutandSteel
Mine has a brass bolt but the stock and handle wood are for sure plastic. What era would this be? It looks just like this one. after watching I believe mine is late 70s early 80s model
If it has the brass bolt it is before 1975, they were made from 66-75 with the brass bolt. With the plastic front and rear I believe it would be late 60’s to early 70’s
Probably needs to be resealed. New pump cup and valve seals. They never were huge power houses but you should be able to get close to 500 fps with 10 pumps
YES!!! I have one just like this....it has the brass bolt long barrel and says Crosman a Coleman devision 760 on it. I can't get the C clip off the pump pivot point. Mine has a one direction pin (not hollow) with a C clip retainer and it won't come off. It won't pump up and because of this I can't fix it....and can't find Info on what it is (year, make , model ). I'm stuck.
@@joeschmoe8320 And you never shot a woody wood pecker as a kid? Every kid shot woody. And the bird is still here to this day punching holes in people homes/shops/barns and killing trees landowners pay for!
My neighbor gave me one exactly like yours that was his as a kid (Also an older model Daisy). No action when you pump it up, so I figured I would do the O-ring replacement. Those are on order. So, did you also replace that pump cap (cup?) I assume so. I need to try to find that and maybe the one small valve piece if the small o-ring is troublesome. Any recommended sources for those parts? Thanks!
Thanks for your help. I replaced the four o-ring seals with the original pump cap and surprisingly got it all back together and working! The hardest parts were hammering out that roll pin in the pump handle, and replacing that dinky o-ring in the valve. I'm pretty excited! Thanks again for your video!
Lol kinda like that little different though lol I have built hundreds of them know all the secrets and the 761 I just built a 761 just a fancy 760 is all it is but he likes it I hate them models self cocking crosmas I don't like they can go off without warning just by to much pump air can do it if any kind of tiny dirt gets in ther
Man mine looked like this one exact same one as a kid when I was 6 in 90s. I bought one today and man quality went to shit the color is way to dark flimsy cheap plastic stock feels like it's gone snap on every pump and did come with the pellet strip you gotta drop them in now wow so crazy and they are still 40 bucks though

Want to purchase one mine is the true first edition but needs rebuilt it has the rounded pump handle with groves
The original had all wood stocks butt an forend My friend had one from way back when we kids . Always wanted one . Good 👍🏻 repair.
Mine as a teen was somewhere around 1975 to 78 ..it has the brass bolt and wood fore stock..
Still have it but does not pump up.
Only thing missing on it is the elevator for the rear sight and one screw in the magazine
They are pretty easy to fix. If it is a brass bolt, wood fore grip and plastic butt, they only made that combo in 1975.

Cool video. I had a 760 with the brass bolt as a youth and gave it to my nephew when he went off to college. I wish I could find another like it.
Pretty easy to find on ebay
I've got one I will let go of but it's got the rounded pump handle first edition

I need one of those PowerMaster 760 Cup Seal things(the part that fixed your 760). Please help! Where dod you buy yours?!?!
On the run, got 10 pumps to an air rifle shot on my Shell Oil Field childhood; under 16 carry no id. 'cept a Crosman

The squared stock interface is the oldest version. Very uncommon
That's great you know how to rebuild those
Lot of good info on Crosman’s website. Exploded views and parts lists on most if not all their old stuff
My grandpa gave me his power master 760 with the funny looking brass bolt and it says patent pending on it it’s 53 years old

Vad är prisbilden ungefär på ett (' Tootsie Roll" V1.) Crosman Power Master 760..?
mvh.
That's nice I got a 760 but the pump is round and groved I'm sure one of the first wanting to sell
The first one actually had a wood stock. I think this is the second type
Yes I was less educated back then! Thanks for watching!
Any chance you could tell me where to buy the pump portion of this build. All parts you bought new would be helpful
Are you referring to the pump cup? I got the whole seal kit from Henry Ford ay Crosman600repair dot com
Thanks, I’ll look to see if you posted the hour of assembly.
Good job Nibs!

Does it look like a 760? Sounds like it needs a reseal job. I have a couple videos on how to rebuild these
None of these crosman 760 videos show exactly piece by piece how to disassemble and assemble they're just useless
Do what we all did use the blue prints
I wish you had shown how to put it back together I've got the exact and it's got way more parts than the later ones do if you could show how to put that thing back together again all the little parts would be awesome

Pretty sure I do have another video covering rebuilding one of these brass bolt 760’s
I love the next generation of 760 s though with a one piece valve good guns well they all are just the second version is best safety wise anyway

Hello Nibs, at 3:33 you mentioned that you bought a new valve piece w/ tiny o-ring... Can you tell me where you bought it?
If you search on ebay for crosman quad seal that brass valve with the o rings installed should show up
I have the exact same gun but I’m having trouble finding the parts for it, do you remember where you sourced your parts?
Yes I can help with that, on ebay look up seller, Crosman600repair he has the full kit available there
Thank you! I will check it out!
I’ve got a rifle Crosman Model 760 d, given to me by my dad. I wasn’t aware it was a BB gun 😖
i have one but intermittent fire and broke but stop cap
front sight intact
Mine was not working I did DW-40 bath and wipe down and works fine sealed up was leaking when I pumped it before the WD-40 bath

I just rebuilt my original "Tootsie Roll" 760. Should the replacement felt ring behind the pump cup get lubricated?
Yes the felt should get a few drops of oil
Did that. Now, sometimes it won't cock on the first pump. Instead, it releases a puff of air right away. After multiple pumps it cocks and fires just fine. @@WalnutandSteel
now it's releasing air and not cocking during the first stroke. OK with 2 or more pumps
@@WalnutandSteel
The self cocking valve can be finicky like that. I would think as you use it the quad seal will loosen up
Thanks. I'd love to see an animation of how that mechanism actually works.@@WalnutandSteel
