Page 5 - Crosman Phantom 1000 Reviews

The guns shoots great and the trigger is exactly like I wanted it. Very crisp and smooth. I feel like I got a good deal for my money.

The sights are crap! Very cheap and the ones on my gun were twisted the right.

The gun is a pretty good deal. Just know what you are getting with the sights. Put a good scope on this gun and it rocks.

accuracy, i could eventually hit a coke can at 25-100 yds, no scope, with correct adjustments, (i'll tell you what, it is fun watching a coke can at 100 yds drop), smooth fire

- better parts, one of my internal parts broke (gun still worked fine though) but the spring inside only last for so many shots

- do not get the crosman 4x32 or winchester 4x32 with this gun becuase it does not shoot accurately at all with them

the price

give it a scope

overall good gun

The airgun is very powerful and great for hunting purposes. The gun is extremely accurate shooting in the same spots very often. I reccomend to buy a good scope with atleast 4x magnifiction.

I would change the trigger so you can actually adjust it because the screw by the trigger does nothing. The stock has nice shape but would look much nicer in wood

Make sure if you shoot at targets to use thick plywood or put something behind the plywood so it doesnt go through. First time a shot it, it went through 3/8 inch playwood and through my drywall. Also loud not very good for indoor use. Overall a great air rifle!

This gun is light, easy to use, and powerful. Thats what any shooter is really looking for. With it's 11mm dovetail rail to mount your favorite scope it makes for good small game hunting.

This gun can be very accurate. However, it's accuracy is inconsistent. It will fire a few rounds perfectly, then a few bizarre ones. this gun made it extremely difficult for me to sight in my scope. and once i did get it sighted in, the rail would sometimes fail and the scope would move around. i would make this gun more accurate, and a little more durable.

if you just plan to use this gun for open sight shooting, it will work pretty well. Hollow Points shoot the best with this gun so buy a box of those too.

this gun is just as good as those expensive break barrels but costs less.the accuracy is extremely good after u adjust the sights.this gun is very user friendly, one because it is for right and left handed shooters.I am left handed so that heips and the grip of the gun is very comfortable.I am not rich but i could afford this gun and feel that I got a gun that is well worth 90 dollars! If you dont want to break the bank this is the gun for you.

I wish the sights were tougher and not just made of plastic, but it works very well.

You can not use daisy pellets, they are too small for the barrel and can fall out.

Potential for good accuracy and power, good balance and weight, reasonable cocking effort

Better QC on the barrel lockup, the flimsy rear sight, trigger

Along with the Quest, this is potentially one of the best buys out there. But you may have to play with it a bit... the accuracy on mine went from poor to quite good after tightening up the pivot bolt and staking it in place. On a brand new gun, a good barrel cleaning would probably help as well. The power on mine is a bit low at 870's with Crosman Premiers, but I have a Quest that does 920-930 with the same pellet (after installing a new spring and seal from Crosman). The rifle is based on the Gamo breakbarrel series (although the firing cycle seems to be more civilized than the typical Gamo). The trigger mechanism design is virtually identical, although the stamping and machining don't seem to be as good. Sometimes it is effectively feels like a single-stage trigger. The rear sight is quite poor, almost pathetic. The FO inserts are very dull, and the flimsy plastic assembly doesn't really leave the shooter with decent detents for the adjustment knobs (especially the windage). Crosman customer service is quite good, and unlike many manufacturers they offer an excellent selection of service parts at very reasonable prices.

A hard-hitting airgun with great accuracy!

The trigger-pull is a little stiffer than I like.

This is my first time using a break-barrel rifle, until now I've always used pump-guns, I don't think I'll ever go back. Once sighted-in, its power and accuracy is impressive!

its not to heavy and not to light. its accuracy is consistant and it looks nice.

nothing

you need to fire at least 500+ pellets through this gun before it becomes accurate.
