I got a 1377 last week. The first thing I did was clean and lube it using Ballistol. A swab came out of the bore pretty dirty, so I'd suggest cleaning it before initially using it. I got a tube of PellgunOil for pivot points etc. I painted a small dot of red acrylic on the user end of the front sight to make it easier to see for this old guy, and I do okay with it at 10-12 yards. I'm going to probably get a red dot for it, but I'm going to shoot with it for at least a few more weeks before doing so. I have a Gamo Swarm Maxxim in .22 for pretty quiet plinking and varmint control (quieter than a .22LR, and amazingly silent compared to a 12 gauge!), and I got this for pistol practice... but I'm probably going to get a stock for this, just to mess around with it. I'm putting a lighter trigger spring on it. The original breaks fine, but for a lightweight airgun, I want a feather light trigger. I don't need a suppressor where I am, but they look pretty cool, so maybe.....
These are one of the best things going. I got my 1322 5 years ago. They are super accurate, nice build, rifled barrel and the sky is the limit for parts. Mine started with just the stock like yours and is plenty fun just like that. I ended up doing a 14.5 inch barrel, TKO muzzle brake (insanely quiet) and a steel breech with a fixed 4x centerpoint scope. I kept it like that for 4 years. I just recently got a buckrail plumper forearm and a baker ariguns trigger shoe. The trigger shoe is a great 20 dollar upgrade, helps a ton to shoot accurately. I have PCP's and they are all fine and well but there is jus something about these 1322/1377's. I get 530fps with 13grn H&N Hobby pellets, 520fps with crosman premiers and 505fps with 16grn Predator polymags. This is with 12 pumps which I only do for ratting.
I just got my 1377 last week. I'm doing a lighter trigger spring, maybe a steel breech, eventually a solid roll pin for the pump pivot, and probably a red dot (old eyes need the help). I put a small dot of red acrylic on the back side of the front sight which helps me see the sight, and I get +/- 1" groups at about 11-12 yards with six pumps. I think if I can get better sighting, I can tighten that up somewhat. I'm probably going to get one shoulder stock or another, just to try it... I wanted this specifically to plink with a pistol, but parts are cheap enough to mess around with. I'm in the mountains, so a suppressor looks great but isn't necessary for my needs. (Still, a pretty cheap addition, so...). I'm replying to you to ask what the trigger shoe does for you. Any insight will be appreciated.

Awesome!!

The 1377 is a nice little pistol for the money
So far have you been enjoying the pistol? I'm coming from C02 & PCP guns and want a self-contained spare plinker that isn't a break barrel.
It's a very fun plinker, but only good for cans and such. Not enough power for critters
