Page 2 - Crosman 2240XL Reviews

Nice pistol a little loud so I put a suppressor on it, accurate at 20 yards with red dot

Nothing

Shipping was fast and easy

Great value for your dollar, stylish, feels good in the hand, and the XL has a steel receiver and threaded barrel.

Not much, perhaps a nicer trigger but at this price point it’s not bad and can be easily modified.

It’s quite accurate, a little bit on the loud side but easily resolved with the threaded barrel.

Great fun Gun!

Add a front sight.

Just a pistol.

absolutely everything but the grips, what a great shooter and so much fun

grips, already modifying because i can and its fun making things even better, that said, this pistol is a joy

great pistol, one inch groups with cheap dot sight at 10 yds with crosman hp pellets, these are fine for this pistol- will save high end pellets for my rifles, painted grips with bed liner and they look and feel perfect give it a try, after coating with a brush just lightly slap grips with side of brush for great finish. good power, goes through both sides of tin soup can and dents a third, not bad for co2, have 10.1 inch barrel and dot sight with more mods coming to increase power. beware of breech screw, its under bolt probe and tough to remove/install had to figure it out and needed to remove bolt handle to push probe forward to get at screw. all vids ive seen its in front of bolt but not mine, enjoy this pistol-been around a long time for a reason great time

light weight/ accurate

little noisy

i wish i could put a supressor on it to be backyard friendly

Best CO2 gun hands down for the money! Very powerful gun, for the time being I added a cheap gamo Green Dot sight it works good. I like the fact that the gun is made with metal! People who buy this gun should know that it does not come with iron sights

Add sights!

Make sure that you have some sights for the gun!

Well made pistol feels like a real pistol

There is a lot of extra to add on pistol
Suppressor, pica tinny , add a mag. grave compact 5 magazine

well made, like the crosmans of the1950's, but with updates in materials

Quite accurate, for a co2 pistol, of which I have a few, it's got the whack! Good power, light,and just a gas to use.

Make it easier to swap barrels.

Warning, this gun is addictive ! After getting the first, l got a second. A blast to mod fun to tinker with. Gobs of fun !

Good feel to the grips. Very accurate. Easy to load. One cartridge last a long time,

That it came with sights so you could shoot it straight out of the box.

Have a scope or some kind of sight ahead of time. And lots of pellets, because you'll want to keep shooting it all day!

I liked everything I read in Crosman's description for the pistol. Too bad the one I received was NOT as described.

See below.

I got this today. Several bad scratches on it, some were due to the barrel stabilizer between the air cartridge tube and the barrel not being set correctly and jammed backwards 1.5 inches before shipping. Both screws scratched up the barrel and housing. If you're going to ship the screws loose, at least back them out enough so they don't scratch up the gun! The thread protector at the end of the barrel had a small crack, too. Probably was dropped at the factory?? So I Gorrilla-glued it. Just a little frustrated with the condition of the gun they sent. If it's been dropped on the barrel end, is the barrel unaffected? Hope so. Not impressed with what they sent me. Got the old, black grips... I know the site says color may vary, but that's just an excuse for when they run out of the new, brown grips. My pmt was 100% perfect, so should the gun be.

Everything about this gun is great. Action is smooth. Shoots accurately. Nice feel on the grips. Handles great.

Put wood grips on it.

Great gun everyone should have one.

This gun is fantastic very accurate excellent quality good value for the price point

Would like a adjustable trigger

its a CROSSMAN do I need to say more

great air gun

This pistol is a blast! Almost considered a similar one, but it is made in China -so easy decision to buy American. It's very accurate-especially for the money- fun to smack silhouette targets or paper targets in the basement. And if you order the very affordable suppressor and custom grips from Buck Rail, it will look awesome and shoot super quiet. I put a $70 Hawk red dot sight on my 2240 xl and it shoots one hole groups

Trigger could be better..but what do you expect for $109

But custom grips and suppressor from Buck Rail! They sell cheap red dot sight too..but $70 Hawk one worked better for me

Affordable and is a good gun to build on.

The packaging,needs foam or something to protect in shipping

Good gun to build on there is lots of upgrades.

The 1/2 UNF threaded muzzle. I use a $25 Buck-Rail suppressor, when indoors (it's great). Steel breech (I use a $28 2-6x32AO scope, which works great).

Not a fan of brown grips, but not really a factor, as I use a Crosman 1399 shoulder stock with it (see my review of the 1399 stock to see a simple way to keep it from moving).

This is my loudest air pistol. However, my $25 Buck-Rail suppressor makes it indoor, middle-of-the-night, quiet. This is not the best choice if you are looking for a pistol to use with iron sights (primarily because of the limited front sight options).

As a whole this is a top notch cost/benefit ratio purchase,and has been for a long period of time.I have owned 3.

Offer it with slightly larger, glowing sites as an option. And (its hard to get a world class trigger for $100.00 dollars). That being said, I will buy it again with this trigger.

This air gun is a child's dream.

My first Crosman product, it is better than I expected for the price.

Included a dovetail to rail adaptor, even if it would raise the price . No deal breaker, just a taught.

I have three of these 2240xl pistols. They are very accurate right out of the box. I have installed extra long barrels on them. You can modify them all you want to your to make them look any way you want.

I do not know of any thing I would I would change. They are good for the money.

Just be sure an use the Pellgun oil on the tip of the co2 cartridge before you install it in the gun.
