Crosman 1088B Kit BB & Pellet Pistol

Light weight, inexpensive and fairly powerful...I shoot hollow point .177 hunting pellets with no complaints, in fact I really like the design and feel of this gun...I also have a Dan Wesson 4" revolver which is heavy duty high quality airgun but for out having fun in the woods this crosman 1088 is my favourite!

The grip/handle doesn't close tight after cO2 is installed.

Use pellet gun oil

metal pierce for C02 easy to load,pretty good fps when full charged accurate to 10-15ft metal hammer trigger pull not bad in single action double little heavy, for the price and the performance very pleased with the purchase.

make it out of metal and lease the slide and trigger, the Las Vegas shot show was this week heads up on the new 2015 pistols from Crosman

nothing

Excellent for the money, lots of fun

instructions regarding use of domed pellets and lubrication

I had issues with pellets jamming, and found out the domed pellets will work without jamming!
Recently the gun malfunctioned and wouldn't advance the clip. I solved the issue when i discovered the roller at the base of the assemble was jamming. I used some light weight pell gun oil, which freed it up. Now every time I load up I make sure it is moving freely.

Accuracy

quality

I got this to make the free shipping minimum on my order. It did NOT fire single action. IT misfired. IT jambed. The pellets that came in the kit with it fell through the clip often while loading. Pyramid air is GREAT as they took it back with my word that it malfunctioned even paid shippping. Pyramid air is the best this pistol is junk.

Price, rifled barrel, accuracy.

The mostly plastic construction, the trigger, the feed mechanism.

This is a decent little CO2 pistol for beginners, but it does have its flaws. It has decent accuracy but really suffers once the pressure starts to drop. I only get around 4 clips worth of pellets out of a CO2 cartridge before the pressure is too low for any decent shots. The trigger is very stiff and my particular pistol doesn't like to shoot in single action. The clip mechanism also misfeeds and jams often on mine. I've purchased new clips to try and remedy the issue but it still does it. Certain pellets and low CO2 make the issue worse. But overall its not bad out of the box and is really cheap for a rifled barrel CO2 pistol. If i did it again though, I'd get the Crosman 357 instead.

Fits good in hand. Double-action.

Put a mounting rail on the bottom

Very fun to shoot with and is easy to operate.

Great gun for the money. Co2 lasts a long time. Quite accurate. Can fire all 8 pellets into a 3" plate at 30 feet.

Nothing really

By adding a laser you can improve accuracy & fun. I use mostly pellets & not BBs because the pellets are more accurate. The magazine is interchangable with Crosman models 1008 & T4

co2 is cheap, one cartridge lasts around 80 to 100 shots. Good accuarcy and power with bbs. I only used pellets. Convienent loading mechanism.

8 round mag goes pretty fast

great fun and good value. Good pistol for beginners

Easy to load, easy to shoot.

Nothing for me.

My first pellet pistol, so I can't really compare it to others. Bought it to hone my shooting techniques shooting in my garage during an unusually bad winter. It has definitely helped.

The accuracy is great, an inch at 15yards. It copies a ruger Kp345. Good egrinomics slim, small and very manuverable. Powerful, you can feel the muzzle jump when using gamo rocket pellets at 98 degrees. Lasts long, I've had my 2 for 1 year now. Sips Co2, 60 shots to a can. No jams.

The sights are large and meant for combat. The grips are long, but at least they don't come loose like the 357-6. The velocity goes way down in single action.

My 2 1088s have take 1500rnds with no jams. I do clean the filter and the mecanism with a Q-tip every 400rnds. It is much easier to get a quality gunlight for piccatany rails than dovetail. I wish I could have gotten the 357 kit with the 4 and 8inch barrels when it was sold.
