I would buy it in an instant if I knew that I could bore out the barrel for .687. I would l also put on a CA/12gr arrangement of some sort.

1377 crosman pellet pistol with custom barrel not worth $200.00 to me. I have a spare 1377 laying around, hmm maybe i'll build one with a brass 68 cal barrel.

BOS, you can tune the upper limit of the velocity with springing just as you would a normal paintball gun. On many pump up guns, the velocity hits a peak, and all the air can't be released from the valve. Only increasing spring tension brings up the velocity at this point.

If someone makes a 68 cal breech and barrel for the 1377 I'll buy one.

I like the quality of the finishing.

Though I remember the Crosman-1377 that I had. I tried a simple experiment where I rigged a quick adapted to the barrel (duct-tape) , that allowed me to attach a generic .68 barrel to the end of the .177 barrel.

I think it took around 20 pumps to get a decent FPS from that gun.

But it did sorta work. I suppose instead of this beautiful, but pricy custom breech, you could instead just rig a "hinge" at the end of the .177 barrel and then mount a short .68 barrel. To load, just tilt the barrel, exposing the breech, and pop in a ball, close, then fire. $2 in parts..
