I received it as a gift. Honestly, the workmanship is nice but the rear sight is weak. It's quite powerful, but cheaper ones shoot similarly. The scope in the set is hard to adjust. It fits well in the groove, you can feel it’s heavy and the external workmanship is massive.

Militaria.pl is the exclusive distributor of Crosman
Crosman is a brand with more than a century of tradition, which has been providing shooting enthusiasts with reliable air guns and ammunition for years. A turning point in its history was the introduction of the Powerlet CO2 cartridge in 1954 - a 12-gram capsule that revolutionized the market by offering 50% more gas than the 8-gram cartridges previously used. This allowed a much higher number of shots to be fired from a single capsule. Over the years, Crosman expanded its offerings, introducing airsoft replicas, optics and accessories. Today the brand offers a wide range of products that work well for both recreational shooting and professional training.

The air rifle is excellent in terms of quality/price ratio. It seems very solid and, with the included scope, it's accurate. Shooting is a pleasant experience.
-
The air rifle is very accurate; a moderately experienced shooter with support can achieve a group the size of a 5-zloty coin from 50 meters. However, you have to be careful not to shoot without a pellet, as this can very easily damage the spring. I recommend it.
-
I've had it since August. I am satisfied. It shoots well, is accurate, and you can feel this air rifle in your hand. The only thing I changed was the optics to a Walther 6x42 with parallax, and shooting became even more enjoyable. About 3,000 pellets have been fired, and it's still accurate and strong. I personally recommend it.
-
Let me say this, I've had it for about 8 months, fired about 2,000 rounds, and nothing has happened to it. Shooting at distances of 20m, 30m, 50m, 60m is pure pleasure; for longer distances, I recommend switching to better optics. I haven't measured it on a chrono but at 50m, a bottle of water is pierced through. I recommend it.
-
Very good air rifle, accuracy at 30 meters - everything fits within a 50 groszy coin, at 100 meters you can hit an A4 sheet. About 2000 pellets fired and it works like new. The sight can easily be adjusted with a flat screwdriver.
-
Very nice air rifle. I highly recommend it. Excellent product, easy to mount the scope, no problem with setting up and zeroing the rifle. What about shooting accuracy? How are the elements responsible for correct aiming? This air rifle also comes with an optical sight, with magnification from 3 to 9 times. The objective lens is 40 mm in diameter. In addition, the tall adjustment turrets are extremely convenient to use. Highly recommended. :-)

The air rifle has been thoroughly tested. Bought less than a month ago. After purchase, tested with a chronograph, and depending on the pellets, the power ranged from 15.5 to almost 17 J (about 16.7 - 16.8 J). After shooting about 150 pellets, the power dropped significantly to values between 13.5 and 14.7 J (depending on the pellets). Despite this, it is still quite accurate. The barrel in my unit seems slightly over-calibered since JSB Exact 4.50mm pellets go in very loosely, sometimes even falling out. H&N pellets fit much tighter. Ideally, use pellets with an oversized caliber of 4.51 - 4.53mm, depending on the brand. There is no bipod available for purchase – I searched for a long time and, unfortunately, did not find any, so cushions have to suffice. Overall, it's a nice little air rifle, if it weren't for the gas spring. Online reviews are confirmed that regular springs are better than gas ones. If the power drops even further, I'll have to use the warranty for repair or replacement. Do I recommend it? I'm not sure myself, as there are other, more durable options for this price.

This set is really worth it. Good air rifle at a good price. Shipping and packaging were professional. I received it in 3 days though it arrived in Hungary via international shipping. Thanks for everything.
-
I'm happy with the purchase, it's my first air rifle. After setting the scope at 20 meters, it's very accurate. I haven't had a chance to test at longer distances. I'm very satisfied.
-
The air rifle is very accurate, and a reasonably skilled shooter with a 50m rest will have shot groupings the size of a 5-zloty coin. However, be careful not to shoot without a pellet, as you can easily damage the spring that way.
-
A very decent air rifle. You can hit a standard small target from 70-80m. 10/10 times with standard pellets. Grouping at this distance wasn't measured using a vise, but it's great fun. It will still be tested at 100 and 120m with various types of pellets.
-
Accurate air rifle, well made. Very good accuracy and power. Well made and fairly quiet. Recoil is small thanks to the gas spring. I definitely recommend it.
-
The air rifle is very powerful and accurate!
-
Crossmann is a trusted and proven company. The air rifle is accurate, well-made. Worth its price. I recommend it.
