Page 14 of 49 - Crosman 2240 Reviews

Feb. 22, 2018, I finally got a chance to try out my new Crosman 2240. It was exceptional. More than I had expected. If anyone wants to save money keeping their trigger finger and eye in "tune", I recommend the Crosman 2240.

An adjustable trigger and rear sight would make it more accurate. You can adjust the rear sight, but I want something that is more precision.

REMEMBER: always wear eye and ear protection when firing any firearm. Just because you are not firing a high caliber firearm, does not mean that you won't be injured

This gun has a lot of power. Very impressed!

Add even more power

A Great beginner air gun. Very accurate shot.

That would be most everything about this pistol. It has acceptable accuracy, power and ergonomics. Quality is acceptable as well with a few things that would improve upon it but they are probably outside of the price.

I am not a fan of plastic and a little less on this gun would be a nice upgrade but the main item I would change would be the barrel band, if it held the barrel better (tighter) I think this gun would shoot even better than it does. And if instead of one contact screw at 6 o'clock anchoring the barrel band to the gas tube there were two screws at 4 and 8 o'clock positions it would probably be much stiffer an assembly to hold the barrel.

Some reviews have advised issues with sights not aligned correctly, this is extremely easy to adjust by loosening the allen screw on top of barrel band and then just rotating the barrel with your fingers.

I liked the price the gun it self the fast delivery.how well it shot.so many upgrades you can do to it.

Nothing at all.

The trigger is fine I anjusted the triger now I have a hair triger I don't know why people are complaneing about it.yes out of the box it's stiff but after you ajust it it's nice.

I can keep squirrels off my bird feeders and save them for songbirds.

Everything it got 5 stars for.

Would like a metal breech,at least one longer barrel,possibly a power valve.A little custom shop but no go though the custom shop.

Power, handling, and accuracy. Easy to load. The heft and weight is about right for a pistol this size.

I would like to see this pistol come with sight/scope rails to eliminate the need to buy an inter-mount.

This pistol is a lot of fun and value for the price. Pretty similar to my SSP-250 but without the plastic flip open loading port and that's a good thing.

Very nice pistol.shoots right on .

Nothing

What a nice little gun. Accurate, light, quiet with LDC installed, inexpensive. Gun is easy to load and a pleasure to shoot. I got tired of pumping up my 1322 real fast and bought this. I swapped out the steel breech, rear sight, and walnut grips from my 1322 and it made a big difference in the way this gun looks. This just became my favorite air pistol.

I would change the grips to plain checkered plastic instead of trying to simulate wood grain.

The trigger is a bit heavy as received. I removed the trigger spring and compressed it some with my fingers which lightened up the trigger pull noticeably. Don't do too far compressing the spring or the gun will not cock or create a dangerous hair trigger.
I had to use a screw driver in order to pierce the CO2 cartridge on the last half turn of the end cap. No big deal.
This gun produced an average of 425 fps using Crosman Premier 14.3 gr pellets on a 30 degree day. I expect higher velocities on warmer days.

I received my pistol on 12-9-2017 with the steel breech replacement and the 10 for 10 check. The pistol shoots great more accurate then my NPSS rifle. Very easy to use, and have shot three different types of pellets crosman premier, RWS superpoint extra, and Ruger superpoint 16.9gr. They all shoot accurately. I shot 50 pellets at thirty feet, at the diameter of a quarter all within the center. This accuracy was of course from a red dot sight that I have purchase some time ago.

Nothing.

The trigger is fine. It was made that way for your safety.
