rail), 4 rotary clips, an AirSource tank, and batteries to power the red dot sight and flashlight.
One of the coolest tactical rifles made today! The Crosman NightStalker is a whole new ballgame, because it has blowback action. It's a revolver but functions as a semi-auto. Not just another pretty face, the sci-fi design of the ergonomic synthetic stock is a reflection of the technology and thought that went into making this rifle.
Crosman's unique Mohawk sighting system includes a rear aperture sight with two hole sizes, and you can quickly switch from one to the other by flipping the sight. No tools required! Plus, the front sight is also adjustable! You'll acquire targets much quicker.
Powered by an 88-gram AirSource CO2The scientific notation for carbon dioxide.
cartridge, the rifle will give you up to 350 shots.

Things I liked:The Crosman Nightstalker is a great gun for plinking. Its extremely accurate and fun to shoot. I’ve read other reviews that have complained about jams and leaks. So far, I’ve put over 1000 pellets through the gun, and it is still fully operational. This is true for two reasons: 1) As stated in the instructions, I put a drop of Pellgun Oil on the tip of every third can of Co2…this will stop the seals from drying out. 2) The breach needs to be slid ALL THE WAY open when loading/unloading the gun. The rotary clip easily slides in and out if you are cognizant of this. You should expect the occasional “misfire”, where maybe 1 or 2 pellets don’t exit the rotary clip. That being said, you still have the opportunity to send 10-11 pellets on target. Lastly, the red dot scope was a disappointment out of the box, but only at first. I had reservations about not have any magnification on the scope, and thought zeroing it in would be difficult. I couldn’t have been more wrong. Once zeroed, I say acquire and fire…you simply can’t miss."

Things I liked:Accurate, the laser sight scope, and the feel of the gun. It seems to have good shooting power.
Things I would have changed:The magazine is hard to load. I do not care for the plastic magazine and the loading area. Crosman generally makes good products but this area needs improvement.

Things I liked:12 Shot Magazine!!! This thing really rocks - It makes a nice loud 'bang' when you shoot it, and it really is the coolest looking rifle you can get in this price range. I recommend a speedloader, otherwise you'll spend a long time refilling those magazines.
Things I would have changed:I'd smooth out the plastic edges

Things I would have changed:I'd smooth out the plastic edges a bit - I took some 400 grit sandpaper to mine, and now it's fine. It was poking me a bit inside the stock, where my thumb rests. Otherwise, it's just one wicked gun!
What others should know:Buy lots of pellets, you're gonna need them!!!

Things I liked:It is a GREAT value in the Kit version and fun to own. I will reach past 3 "higher end" rifles and a pistol or 2 and grab the NS 90% of the time now. I have taken more shots with it than all my other guns combined in a couple of years. I am literally "blowing" through pellets by the tin. It actually has me worried about being able to afford .177 ammo. LOL!
Things I would have changed:The NS only works well with tight fitting pellets in the magazine. I have established this with certainty across 2 Nightstalkers. READ ON AND SAVE YOURSELF SOME GRIEF. (That wasn't yelling. There really needs to be an italics funtion here.)
What others should know:Loose fitting pellets get pushed out of the magazine by blowback in the breech and will cause jams and misfires. This doesn't happen in the 1077 rifle wich uses the same magazine - only in the NS for reasons that should be obvious. The key to total enjoyment of this great rifle is to know which pellets work and already have lots of them when your gun arrives.
There are probably others, but Crosman Premier Hollowpoints (CPH)are the best I have found so far and they are very accurate in my NS. Even with these, you must be prepared to cull the smallest 5% in a tin and keep them seperated to use in other guns. If a pellet starts into the NS magazine and feels loose, cull it. You will get the feel of this in no time. Don't use a speedloader or you won't be able to tell if a pellet is too loose.
No pointed or wadcutter I have tried to date worked nearly as well as the CPH. Therefore, until others are proven, I suggest you have a bunch of these fine pellets on hand when the new NS arrives so you can jump right in to having fun instead of clearing jams. There will be plenty of time to experiment with others that may work after the new wears off. If you hit on other good ones let people know. I predict a blog somewhere just for NS owners to catalog ammo that function well
I have now had over 1000 jam/misfire free shots with my NS using CPH and the culling method of loading clips. Crosman should send a tin of CPH with every NS.
Hope this helps someone.
Cheers

Things I liked:The "TK" edition gets you off to a good start making this rifle look mean with some decent accessories. This rifle is deadly accurate and I was pleased by the power this 580fps CO2 has. Tight .8 inch groups @ 25 yards. No can stands a chance, even thick ones! I only get about 225 shots out of those 88g CO2 tanks in 60-65 degree

Things I liked:The "TK" edition gets you off to a good start making this rifle look mean with some decent accessories. This rifle is deadly accurate and I was pleased by the power this 580fps CO2 has. Tight .8 inch groups @ 25 yards. No can stands a chance, even thick ones! I only get about 225 shots out of those 88g CO2 tanks in 60-65 degree weather, far from the advertised 350 shots though. I bought several types of pellets and found that the standard, cheap wad-cutter, dome, and flat-tip hollow point types from RWS or Crosman work best. Most pointed or "hunting" types are either too long or do not allow the magazine to advance properly. One thing you MUST get is the speed-loader, you will thank me later. I found the flashlight useful and was able to see well on our improvised shooting range as shooting carried on into the evening, even at 30-40 ft distances.
Things I would have changed:1.The included scope rings are the standard type and sit low on the rail and render the Mohawk sights totally unusable so I replaced mine with "see through" scope rings (Leupold model # 55880) to raise the scope up 1" to a more comfortable eye level and allow the use of the Mohawk sights.
2.In my opinion, the Mohawk sight system needs to be redesigned. The peep holes are difficult to see through and acquire targets quickly. You need to carry a screwdriver to make adjustments, some kind knob/lever would be cool.
Wish list:
1.Open or Fiber-optic dot sights would have been icing on the cake.
2. Higher capacity magazines or maybe an optional BB hopper.
3. More Power and variable power knob.
What others should know:Not sure if I was just too rough but after 4 CO2 cartridges the CO2 transfer assembly misaligned and caused the rifle to lose total power. If it wasn't for the exploded diagram of the rifle on Crosman's website I would have had to send it back for repair or ask Pyramid Air to replace it. Fortunately, I like to take things apart and found that the CO2 assembly kind of screws together and once the CO2 outlet holes are aligned, it is held in place by two tension screws. If you over tighten a CO2 canister you can cause it to slip and rotate just a enough in the sleeve to block the CO2 completely. This causes no real damage and is super easy to cause the problem and fix but a hassle none the less so watch out. I realigned the holes and tightened the crap out of the tension screws and seems to be holding well now. They should have designed it with a couple dimples under the tension screws to stop the rotation.

Things I would have changed:NOT A THING !
What others should know:Take a little fine emery cloth sandpaper on the threads of the 88g. Air Source tank to knock down the threads a little ,clean very good, then put a drop of Crosman Pellgun Oil on the tip and threads, and I've had a bottle in there over a month and still strong.

Things I would have changed:The plastic body is a bit on the flimsy side, and the butt stock cap (the part that conceals the CO 2 cartridge) rattles a little.

Things I would have changed:The pellet wheel cover is flimsly and should be made stronger. The electronic site goes out during the shooting session. I read about this problem and don't remember the fix. It comes with 2 batteries and I have not tried the extra one. Maybe it's just weak batteries?
What others should know:Start your shooting session early. It takes time to shoot out the CO2 tank.

Things I would have changed:The flashlight is almost worthless for most situations, and I would offfer a laser instead.
Removing an empty magazine requires some practice.
What others should know:I have found that RWS Superdome pellets work great in this gun. They are high quality, fire accurately and seat well in the magazine. Don't use any pellets which do not fit snugly in the mag, or you will be frustrated by the jamming which results. Also, buy extra mags, so you won't have to stop as often to reload them.

Things I would have changed:The magazine is a little tricky to get out. I found that if you make sure the cover is *fully* pushed forward it comes out relatively easily, but if it is even slightly back, the magazine doesn't come out easily. Maybe add a small eject lever? The blowback does not always successfully recock the gun and when you manually recock it, it appears to move the index to the next round and you lose a shot in that magazine.
What others should know:This is NOT a precision gun, but one for high-volume plinking, i.e. for fun. And it is fun. It is reasonably accurate, but you're not going to hit an aspirin at 50 yards with this. To compare it to a firearm, it's more like the silenced MP55D5 (and even sounds like it) which was meant for closer quarters firing and putting lots of rounds in a reasonably tight area. The MP55 is not a sniper rifle and neither is this. Using the red-dot sight, I can get 12 shots to land in a ~2" dia circle at 60ft which is good enough for having fun. Then again, I've never fired a CO2 gun that was consistent since it seems like the amount of gas is always slightly different with every shot leading to variations in velocity and consistency. With regards to unfired pellets, most of the time I encountered it was when the blowback didn't properly recock the gun and I had to manually recock it. I don't think it has to do with the pellets themselves. It also seems like the gun prefers being rapid fired. When I slow fire it one or two rounds at a time when I am adjusting the sights, I notice more instances of failed recocking and unfired pellets. When I rattle off shots in fairly quick succession, almost all of the time I get no unfired pellets. Finally, I pretty much have to wear eye gear when firing this gun because some of the CO2 blowback hits me in the eyes when I'm sighting down the scope. It's not that bad, but since I have contact lenses, it's somewhat distracting.

What others should know:Flathead pellets work great for me. I can hit the pole of a bird feeder from 25 yards away 7/10 shots. Go get plenty of Co2 and and pellets. Find a way to make the magazines load and unload quick. ^_^

Things I liked:This gun is just flat out fun to shoot. I have several air rifles and pistols, and this is the one everybody wants to shoot- despite being the least accurate of the rifles I own! The short design, large CO2 source, electronic sight, and blowback cocking all make it a blast to plink with. The included sight works very well and is accurate once adjusted. The bipod is nice on occassion, although I rarely use it. The flashlight is actually a very nice piece of equipment, although I can't imagine actually using it- it's more of a decorative piece on a pellet rifle. This is not the rifle I use when I want to hit the bullseye from maximum range; rather I am more likely to use it to rapidly shoot a can from mid-range. In other words, fun shooting, not competition shooting. I've had the gun for 6 months or so, and have yet to experience any defects in the gun.The majority of the gun seems to be very sturdy, and the material it is made out of is similar to what real carbine stocks are made from, i.e. it is not cheap plastic.
Things I would have changed:This gun can be very picky about both the type of pellets used and the way they are loaded into the magazine. It is not uncommon to find 3-4 unfired pellets in the magazine if the pellets are not loaded perfectly.
What others should know:I have used this rifle to take down very small game, but would not recommend it for anything above a small rodent or bird. Due to the low FPS of the gun, accuracy and power are limited in range. I highly recommend picking up extra magazines, as loading them can be time-consuming, even with a speed loader.

Things I liked:I like how the price and the quality of the gun match the value of it.
Things I would have changed:Well first of all it depends on what your using it for. Hunting or target practice. A neat feature would be a shoulder strap. Many times i'm carrying my gun in the woods and I find that lots of times i want or need to

Things I would have changed:Well first of all it depends on what your using it for. Hunting or target practice. A neat feature would be a shoulder strap. Many times i'm carrying my gun in the woods and I find that lots of times i want or need to use two hands to do something or im climbing down a hill.A shoulder strap , in my oppinion, would indeed fix the problem. I would also change the "Mohawk" site system. Cool idea, but lots of times I am looking through the rear iron site and have to squint to see the front iron site.Also the color of the front iron site is black and i find it quite hard to see my target espesially if its on a tree or far away.(to fix this problem i painted tip of front iron site with white-out.)
What others should know:Very good gun for fun. Don't recomend for hunting though. It's more of a target practice gun.

Things I would have changed:The rails should have had the holes in both ends instead of one in the end and one in the middle, also woulda like more room for a good scope to fit in between the sights.
What others should know:I recommend to use pellgun oil on the 3rd co2 because it really helps the rifle.

Things I liked:lightweight, compact, easy to handle, excellent sight system for this little rifle, consistently accurate, and a fair amount of punch. And all of these features in a relatively insexpensive package.
Things I would have changed:magazine system deserves some attention. They are somewhat tricky to slide in correctly, and almost always tough to get out (I keep some needle-nose's handy but even using them sometimes doesn't work).
What others should know:This rifle will misfire frequently if pellets aren't pushed to just the right depth in the mag. I've also found that Daisy flat-nosed pellets hardly ever work well, but the pointed ones work fine. I've gotten the most consistent firing and best groupings with any of the Gamo's I've used.

Things I would have changed:The directions for mounting and adjusting the scope are not very good. I found articles on the Pyramid site for adjusting the scope and used them instead of the directions that came with the rifle. Pictures on the scope directions are not exactly similar with the scope itself.
What others should know:Once you have the scope adjusted, even a beginner can shoot accurately. Three of us shot the rife with the same scope adjustments and all of us were accurate. No need to change scope adjustment for different users.

Things I liked:Semi-Auto, 12 round mag, light weight, accessories are well made and work great! Powerful.
Things I would have changed: Easier loading port, include battery charger for flash light.
What others should know:Havent found a scope that that fits because of the dove tails. CO2 doesn't last very long.
