Lot 449:
Crosman American Classic Model 1377 .177 Caliber Air Pistol and M16 Model
Description
This lot features a Crosman American Classic Model 1377 pneumatic pump-action air pistol and a non-functional scale model of an M16 rifle. The air pistol is chambered for .177 caliber pellets and is constructed with a blued steel barrel and pump arm assembly. It features brown plastic grips and a matching pump forearm, both finished with a wood-grain texture and diamond checkering. A brass-toned trigger is housed within a black trigger guard. The left side of the receiver bears the script engraving American Classic above block lettering reading MODEL 1377 .177 CAL. The right side of the receiver displays a yellow directional arrow decal stating TO COCK PISTOL PULL BACK TWO CLICKS and an impressed serial number reading 981245554. The pistol is equipped with a fixed front blade sight and an adjustable rear notch sight.
Accompanying the airgun is a miniature model of an M16 rifle mounted on a black rectangular pedestal base. The model is finished in matte black and replicates the aesthetic of the military rifle, including the carrying handle, triangular handguard, 20-round style magazine, and birdcage-style flash hider. The model does not appear to have moving parts and is intended for display purposes.
Condition report:
The Crosman air pistol shows significant signs of age and handling. There is widespread surface oxidation, light pitting, and finish loss across the steel barrel and pump arm (Photo 3 and 8). The brass-toned finish on the trigger shows wear and tarnishing (Photo 6). The plastic grips and forearm exhibit minor surface scratches and scuffing consistent with use, and the yellow safety decal shows some peeling and degradation at the edges (Photo 9). Mechanical function has not been tested. The M16 model appears to be in good cosmetic condition with minor dust accumulation and light surface scuffs on the plastic components (Photo 4 and 10).
