Crosman 760 Reviews

I had one of these as a kid and it worked for a long time. In that time I was able to dispatch a large number of pests. I purchased this new model for my son as a birthday gift. It shot harder than my old one, but is also much harder to pump. On the old model you could grab the receiver to and pump from there, with the new extended pump arm you could do this but risk catching your fingers in there. It was reasonably accurate.

Stock broke off on the first day of use after maybe 100 rounds and only pumping it 2x per round. Tried to pump it three times and the stock retaining rings inside the receiver gave way and the the stock just fell off and dumped all the BBs. My son was very disappointed as am I. Crosman has chosen to make a classic that a lot of kids grew up with into a cheaply made air rifle that breaks easily.

The stock felt kinda flimsy out of the box. But so did the others that kids were shooting so I did not worry about it. But it did break. There was another newer 760 there that has been used for the last few weeks by another kid and his is not broken. Maybe I got a bad one. But this is the last 760 I will likely buy.

Power and style in a rifle a young child can hold comfortably and is a welcome addition to my Pyraymydair collection.

Best product, best prices, and service !

Reasonably strong BB / pellet rifle. Steel barrel with fiber optic front sight. Large on board BB storage.

Less plastic. I understand that to meet the price point of 35 dollars corners must be cut, but I would be glad to pay twice that for a little more metal inside and out. I'm not a fan of plastic stocks and forearms.

All in all a good low cost .177 air gun. Don't expect a early 70's CROSMAN.

Tiene buen alcance y gran capacidad de carga

Que incluyera una mira telescpica

El rifle tira mas fuerte de lo que imaginas

Large magazine for BB's Easy to chamber BB. Pump isn't too bad. Looks nice

Make it signiificantly more accurate. Shot pattern at 15 feet was terrrible so bad the rifle is 100% unpleasant to use for anything but a ornament. 1 foot left to right and over 2 feet vertical dispersion.

Contact Crosman to gain full knowledge about warranty if you get a scattergun lemon like I did.

it works because I like the option of pellets or BB's

a little broader pump handle

the cocking mechanism tends to stick at times when trying to push a pellet or BB in.

This is a classic, well-constructed and inexpensive plinking/target shooting air rifle made here in the USA. I wanted a backyard friendly plinking rifle. This is my main reason for buying this model.

The trigger is a little stiff, but not unmanageable. This rifle could use a wooden stock.

I have owned several of these over the years. It was the, rifle that I used to teach my sons how to shoot. When we moved from SC I ended up selling or giving away most of my air gun collection, including my 760 Pumpmasters. We recently purchased a new home with a private backyard and I wanted a backyard friendly plinker that I could use without disturbing my neighbors. The Crosman 760 Pumpmaster fills that need. Out of the box the accuracy and power of this gun is good. I can obtain 1.75” ctc groups at 10 meters using Crosman 5.1 gr Copperhead BBs, 1” ctc groups at 10 meters using Crosman 7.9 gr Destroyer pellets, and 1.25” ctc groups using 8.64 gr Beeman Silver Sting pellets. I consider these to be good groupings from a smoothbore rifle. As far as power ratings I get the following average velocities and energies: • 653.8 fps and 4.8 fpe using the Copperhead BBs, • 594.7 fps and 6.2 fpe using the Crosman Destroyer pellets, and • 586.8 fps and 6.6 fpe using the Beeman Silver Sting pellets. Both pellets and BBs easily penetrate completely through a tin soup can at 10 meters. The buckhorn sight that came with the gun is more than adequate for informal targets shooting and plinking, but I plan on painting the front blade sight a fluorescent orange to make it standout better on dark targets.

Shoots straight. Hold a charge. Light weight.

Make an option for a bigger pump handle. This is very hard to use this action with my big hands. The gun likes to pinch.

Having problems with the cocking mechanism. At times it is very hard to pull it back all the way, it may just be my gun. Also I find the pump handle a little flimsy.

The 760 pumpmaster is one of the all time most iconic air rifles ever. I started shooting all together with a 760 in the late 90s and shot them all through the early 2000s. When my wife showed interest in air rifles this year I pointed her to this new variation of the 760 and it made her fall in love with the sport. Remarkably accurate for a smooth bore gun with BB or pellets it is a blast to shoot. It makes a perfect rifle to start a child with and is an excellent choice for an adult looking for a cheap carbine. I personally love this current iteration as a walking gun for picking off starlings and other game birds at close range. It is my hope that someday my daughter will start their child off with a 760 also.

I mean a rifled barrel to brings it up to spec with is brother the crosman m4-177 would be nice but it is great otherwise.

Unlike the last variation this one does not use the 5 round pellet clip. Currently though it appears the 764SB variant of the 760 still does.

Compact size is ideal for training young shooters. Overall fit and finish of the Crosman 760 Pumpmaster is very good for an inexpensive air rifle. Shoots both BB's and .177 pellets.

Nothing

Fun to shoot and accurate.air rifle.

This is a great multi pump airgun! I was surprised by how powerful it is! This thing is dead accurate, it would be great for pest control and nailing some invasive starlings! And it's made in the USA!

Not much, maybe less plastic.

Mine came sighted in right out of the box, but you can add a scope. But it makes loading pellets kind of tricky, I thought the open sights were great!

This is a great cheap bbgun. I had a bunch of open range cattle on my place this summer and it works great to give them an incentive to get the heck out of the yard. 3 pumps.. not impressed mr Bull? How about 4 pumps ? .. and so on. I didn't expect such accuracy since I'm just shooting a cow in the butt, but it's pretty good for shooting cans too! Great for the money. Cows don't like it.

The shaking loading thing is kind of tricky.. sometimes you have to shake it quite a bit to load the BB's but that's not a huge deal. I wish it had a standard rail so I could mount my scopes etc on .. but really you don't need a scope.

An old trick we used to do as kids with these is suck up water with the pump and make it into a water gun. Probably not too good for it, but that was what we used to do.

The weight and that's all.

It's really Coby!

BB's don't feed right, actions thought-out is nothing less then poor. Crosman should be ashamed to make a poor shooting arm as this!

For the price this thing is loads of fun. Great rifle to introduce young people to the hobby.

At this price point I doubt anything could be changed.

Forget about the plastic stock and grip, the mechanical's work just fine for the money. Just as fun shoot as when I was 12 years years old. These did not ship with the speed loader. I did pick up a Fire Power kit and it sates that it is compatible with the 760 Pumpmaster, however the design of the breach on the new models has a "V" shape to it which makes the pin travel in the valley of the breach which is under the pellet and loader.

Lightweight.

Too difficult to get bb to enter the chamber. Excessive effort required to pull back the lever. I had the similar model for 35 years and had no difficulties. This is a major disappointment.

Appearance is low level plastic. I would not recommend this rifle. Buy a better and higher priced model.

I like the look and weight of the rifle.

The trigger takes a lot of pressure to fire the pellets.

I like the looks, the quick handling, the five shot mag, the accuracy for a smooth bore, the fun for the money.

I would like a metal receiver, a wood stock, and a rifled barely.

If you want a 760, then buy this one or the other set that includes a tin of pellets and a bunch of BBC's. Don't bother buying one with an included scope. That scope is about worthless. Either use the iron sights or get maybe a Centerpoint 4x32. The 760 deserves a better scope. I have shot mines lot. If mine is any indication, get yourself a few tons of Crosman Premier Super Match and a few of the Gamo Match pellets. I don't waste my time shooting BBC's, as they spray all over the place. My 760 gets hunting accuracy nicely at 7 yards. That would've minute of rathead. Half inch or less. With 8 pumps it has the power. Don't think so? Place a block of wood at seven yards and sink one each of the above mentioned pellets into that block. Check the depth. Imaging that hitting a rat or squirrel in the noggin. Know that, should you want to, you can replace the smooth bore barrel with a rifled one that is a direct replacement. I even bought the barrel, but my 760 shoots very well as is.

This is well worth what i paid, accurate, and powerful enough with pellets for small game, birds or squirrels.

Should have bought the scope, too. my eyesight isn't as good as it used to be.
