All metal construction with wood grips. Nice weight & barrel length.
Things I Would Have ChangedSights are horrible & gun is not very accurate even at 25'. 5 shot groups are more than 3" at 25'.
What Others Should KnowIf you are looking for a fun shooting accurate .22 Cal co2 pistol go for the Crosman 2240. It's less than 1/2 price of the EB22.
Very nice feel and accuracy with Meisterkugien wad cutters (with my gun). Have shot about 300 or so pellets and has settled down nicely. Real fun to shoot and fits well in your back pocket.
Things I Would Have ChangedI would change the breech to a bolt type as the 1/4 turn isn't much of a lock. Also I would change the front site to a red dot.
What Others Should KnowIf you can find one (I think Crosman has discontinued this model) buy it. Great for plinking.
Solid Build Heirloom Accuracy(must compensate for windage), Good groups though.
Things I Would Have ChangedRear sight for windage.
What Others Should KnowNice pistol to pass down the generations. Very solid. I got this and a friend liked it so much she wanted me to get her one so I did. Unfortunately PA was out and I found elsewhere, and it ended up taking a full week longer than from PA. Pyramyd Air ALWAYS gets it to me the next day if I order before noon. Super Fast just like the commercial. lol
Feel,Accuracy,& Looks.
Things I Would Have ChangedNot a thing.
What Others Should KnowA must for any collector,and if your only looking for one good gun,this would be a great choice. I was on the fence about buying,and now that I have it,I am 100% glad I did. A quality gun for sure(can't stand that cheap plastic feel of some guns)Just holding this gun will make you glad you brought it. Then you shoot it. . . . Oh yeah!
The wood and metal of this classically designed pistol deliver an immediate sense of pride. The pistol is rugged and powerful plus capable of surpring accuracy.
Things I Would Have ChangedThis pistol is great for carrying outdoors, so a quality holster would make a nice option.
What Others Should KnowThe pistol is pretty powerful and it is LOUD! It's also probably to dificult to cock the stricker for kids.
This gun kicks ass! Fun as hell to shoot. Sounds a little like a 22 going off. Love it!
Things I Would Have ChangedThe sights. hard to sight in.
What Others Should KnowJust buy it. You'll have a lot of fun with it.
This is an excellent air pistol. It is a tack driver right out of the box. I own a higher priced Feinwerkbau ISSF air gun and regularly shoot it on the 10 meter range at my gun club, so I was quite surprised at the accuracy and quality of the Benjamin EB22. I purchased the EB22 for casual plinking and found that is also a neat little target gun.
Things I Would Have ChangedNothing. I prefer the feel of this gun to that of my Crosman 2240.
What Others Should KnowPurchase a Benjamin EB22 while they are still available. Crosman is discontinuing production.
Fun to shoot. Never owned a CO2 gun before. I'm just 74 so about time. Just a neat, fun gun to shoot. Not too powerful for indoors.
Things I Would Have ChangedNothing
What Others Should KnowHave some time available when you start shooting it. Hard to put down. Get one while you can because this one and pump gun are being discontinued.
All metal.
Things I Would Have ChangedBetter trigger
What Others Should KnowThere is a video on you tube on how to improve the trigger.
