Crosman 2240 Reviews

It has a lot of punch... comfortable and accurate

Not a lot I would change

Good hobby to have

A fun gun to shoot

The quality from China is nowhere near the ones that were made in America. Had to almost completely disassemble it to clean the gook out of it to get it to properly function. Trigger was terrible and did some sanding and polishing to get it to work without binding and a different sear spring as well. It now shoots well with good groups but is still rough and am hoping with time it will smooth out some. Definitely not like the ones that were made in the USA.

They are not made in the USA anymore but with some tuning can be made to shoot well.Mine gets about 40 shots before it poops out.

Preciso,comoda y mango manejable.

Nada

Well this isn't my first, but I missed not having one, so my wife told me this is a Christmas present. (can't have it till then, but used the discount!) Anyways, it came in a proper Crosman box and not those awful blister packs. I got to look it over and snapped a couple of pics, before it was put away.

Do something better with the front sight! Better QC??

My gripe is, as others have discovered as well, is that front sight! You certainly cannot shoot it "out of the box"!
Crosman should do something about this, where's the QC? At least inspect it before it goes into packageing.
Mine will undergo major upgrades, so I won't be returning.

Very accurate right from the dealer easy to load

hard to puncture the co2 had to use screw driver to make sure it was punctured

feels very well balanced and the trigger is not hard to pull

Pretty good plinker. Would be much better with a decent rear sight.

Give it a functional rear sight! No windage adjustment and it sits lopsided on the barrel. And for all of the upgrades out there, you still can't buy an upgraded rear sight that just drops in. You must change the breech to install a decent rear sight. Ugh. Hey Crosman: Charge $10 -$20 more and put on a decent rear sight.

Great gun for the price, fun to customize and plenty of options

I put a steel breach on and rear lpa sight.

This pistol in .22 caliber fits my hand perfectly, the weight is also perfectly distributed., I bought this pistol with the steel breech installed already, and I also ordered the Mim sight with this pistol package., This sight is really well built and worth the money. I sighted in the open sights, and put on a dovetail Hawke 1.25 red dot scope on it. Start out sighting it in up close, then work your way out a yard at a time, until you get it sighted in at a distance you like, Right now, I have it sighted in at 11 yards, and it hits a 1 inch target dots dead center. Onece the weather improves, I will finish sighting it in. I'm shooting Crosman 14.3 dome pellets out of it, they work just fine in it. The trigger works fine, just pull it back slowly, and you will do well.

The pellets were a little bit hard to load at first when sliding the bolt forward, but that was likely due to the metal breech not being milled down enough.(?) but that's no big deal, I just simply use my finger to help load each pellet.

This pistol in the right hands, can be dressed up any ways you wish to make improvements to it.

Great pistol. I hope they bring back the 2250 which was based on this 2240 pistol.

Make it cheaper.

A lot of after market parts to customize.

Everything!

Not one thing.

I have bought many 2240s over the years. I love building up these guns. Put on a 24 inch barrel,steel breech,all stainless stainless steel hardware including power adjuster and a boss max valve with the larger valve port. This is in a rifle configuration. Its beautiful and has power. Next build will be my custom 2400 KT. But everything will be brass. I might build up just the pistol next one of these times with a slightly larger barrel then the stock one. Super fun projects. Maybe you might enjoy building on up. Not cheap.

Look, build, accuracy

Breech, number of shots

I installed the 14 inch barrel and stock. Only counted twenty two shots and out of gas. I would think the valve releases the same amount of gas regardless of barrel length. May convert it to 88 gram bottle.

I like this little highly modifiable CO2 pistol. Not just for it's ability to have multiple customising options, but how well the device is made and the fact that you could drive tacks with it right out of the box

Well I'm not sure if I would change anything. I have an issue with the steel breech but I'm reviewing the 2240.

This pettet gun is pretty high quality and has many options for making it more "you". I also am impressed with pyramidair.com. I ordered the same co2 pistol from a competitor a week prior to purchasing this one. I still have not received the order from the competitor. Pyramidair is miles ahead of the game. Thus they shall be my go to when it comes to all things airgun related.

hand friendly and light just a very sweet little pistol

thats whatnice about this 2240 you can change it to your own likings! glow sights would be a nice from the factory

everyone sould have one of these that l9kes air guns

Powerful, lightweight, easy to mod.

Nothing.

Check your Bullseye Bucks! I got a 2240 for $33 with BB. Add a $25 14.5" barrel and I got an amazing bargain for a great pistol. The plastic sight knocked off the stock barrel with a wood drift and pressed on the new barrel with no issues. The sky is the limit for mods, and they can be done a piece or two at a time as budget permits, and if you screw something up parts are plentiful and cheap. If you're looking for a toy, a hobby, or an obsession you can find it with a 2240. Huge fun and highly recommended.

Love my new 2240.Hits whatever you are aiming at really hard,way more fun than a .177 pistol ,sends cans flying 4 or 5 feet into the air lol,and very accurate once you set up the sights.

Cheap, accurate, heavy hitting and relatively compact.

Trigger pull is very gritty and heavy as stock. I tried to remove the grip and side plate to polish the surfaces and all but one of the hexes and screws stripped out using a gunsmith screw driver so until I figure out how to remove them I have resorted to reducing the weight of the trigger spring which helps make the pull not overly terrible.

I really like this gun but the pot metal screws are a real bummer. No one buys this gun expecting miracles but not being able to get the thing apart is not right.

I purchased this 2240 pistol as a project pistol because when done 75 percent of the original pistol will be all new after market parts then I will know if it's what I was looking for...

Listed above..

This 2240 is a project for something to do this winter..

It is hard to beat this gun: it is simple and accurate. I think this gun is a must have in a collection.

The rear sight is a bit too simple, but luckily it can be upgraded. I put on a steel breach and an iron sight (btw the Crosman steel iron sight is a hard to find item). The grip feels cheap, but the gun handling is phenomenal.

My gun arrived a little bit crooked from the factory, I am guessing that it is the price for being affordable. I had to unscrew the barrel band to straight it myself.

Seems solid and well built for the price.

It would be nice if the trigger was lighter but considering it is a $68.00 pistol it is not bad.

I bought this just for plinking and marksmanship practice. It fits the bill quite nicely. I am impressed with how accurate and repeatable it is.

Everything

Nothing

Continues to be a great gun
