Product: Crosman 2300S
Review entered on 2012-07-20 16:25:44Things I liked:Pretty accurate for the money and CO2 powerlet makes it more convenient for paper shooting than springers like the weihrauch hw75. More powerful than HW75 by quite a bit. Both pistols seem to like RWS superdome
Things I would have changed:Should come with an RB grip. The plastic grips are cheap to the touch. Fit and finish nowhere near as good as weihrauch hw75 (which does cost more). Include a tube of pelgunoil. Trigger has creep and does not adjust low enough (weight) for my liking. HW75 trigger, on the other hand, is perfect for me just as a reference. The gun seems to be front heavy thus taking away from comfortable extended shooting sessions.
What others should know:Crosman's website allows you to custom make your own 2300kt for very competitive prices allowing you to change some of the parts out to your liking. Buy Pelgunoil - you need it with this gun. It helps greatly with keeping a good seal.

Things I would have changed: Fit is slightly loose. The wood grips frequently make clicking noise when holding the gun in position to fire. Generally, this occurs when your thumb rests near the safty. I'll have to check the manual later to see of there is a way to tighten the grip to the gun...
What others should know:The darker texture of the bottom half of the grip seen in the pictures is the rich wood of the grip made porous. At first, the porous texture is odd, but you get used to it. The cocking effort it harder than I thought it would be, but this is because the profile of being a pistol grants the user only a small surface to act as alever to cock the pistol. I rest the pistol grip flat bottom on a table during cockingand this helps tremendously. At 470$, this gun is an absolute joy. It isnt powerful, but it is an amazing indoor 10 yard target weapon. Read my ratings as 4.5 stars.
