Crosman NightStalker kit

Excellent value for the money! Found a brand new one in original box for $100. Put a Red Dot Scope on it right away; no problem and makes shooting it very easy. Shoot the 12 round mag as quickly as pulling the trigger; I use CPHPs and no problems with indexing or malfunctions. The Nightstalker is just lots and lots of fun to shoot; if you can find one - get it!

Only one issue (see below); after I solved that problem - no worries.

I had an issue with my Co2 venting out; so I added an O ring to the base of the threads on my refillable 88gm cartridge - and now no venting!

I like the 12 shot repeat feature. I like the ease of use. Good gun for the money.

The plastic stock is a little on the cheap side. The safety and the loading slide is a little hard to use since out of the same plastic.

If you are looking for a cool looking target gun that is easy and fun to use, then this is your gun. If you want attention to detail and high end craftsmenship over function then keep shopping.

Fun to shoot, and surprisingly accurate.

Would have preferred a more conventional clip loading system as opposed to the revolver style clip.

The problem I have with the revolver style clip is that recoil from the bolt cycling can cause the other pellets in the clip to shift and protrude, jamming the gun. I have quite a few clips for the gun, and some work better than others.

Brilliant gun best on range

ACCURACY ! Fast shooting, hits pretty hard, easy handling and balance. Very fun !

A better receiver system/seal for loading the co2 cartridge. Sometimes it blows valuable gas when inserting the cartridge. Improved chamber cover for easier loading/unloading and fewer complaints about it. Recommend THE PROPER PELLETS to use. Please supply instructions in english too, that's the only language I know. Please, Crosman executives, stop golfing for a day and pay attention to what pays you.

Mine has UMAREX on the bottom of the barrel. I didn't know Crosman delt with them too. Not a bad thing, they have China on their springers and a few others I own. By experience and unnecessary perseverance I have found this gun to be rather excellent, which is odd. I sent the first one back to Pyramid because it constantly jammed and then wouldn't work at all. The second one started doing the same, bolt locking forward, 3 expensive cartridges to waste and leaking, jamming. I was going to throw it away, literally. Kept working it with a new cartridge (yes, I know all about pellgun oil, I have several different types of air guns and read a lot about it). Then like a miracle from Crosman, or somewhere, it started to work. As other reviewers have said, the right pellet is not only important in this gun, but critical. Crosman pellets are the only way to go. I have now only three proven and consistant pellets for this gun (I tried several name brands that work well in other gas, pump and springers) without one jam since using them, all Crosman Premier as follows; Hollow Points, Domed/round nose (from the expensive brown box 7.9) and the Match or Super Match wad cutters (which do work as well as the rest I mentioned), all 7.9 grains.
Each of those batches had not one jam in 230 shots plus per 88 gram cartridge. I probably wouldn't bother if I had known before, but now it's okay. Make your own mind up and don't go with all media.

This gun is very accurate. Blowback is great and I like the scope and light. The squeeze on the light works well and the whole gun just looks awsome. The 12 shot clip is really nice, but get a speed loader and ammo. The bi-pod is also very handy. Gun is very light and easy to handle.

Nothing. For this money, a great buy.

If you like blowing away cans, this is a nice piece. Get one.

the accessories

that it didn't break

it broke while I was shooting it and it fired off 9 shots in about half a second.

This is the most FUN GUN I have ever had! Accuracy is perfect at close to medium range. Shot after shot I continue to nail the same hole as the first shot. The accessories make this purchase worth every penny. Tears through tin cans. Makes for good times.

NOTHING.

If you're looking for a FUN GUN this is the product. Buy the some extra clips and Co2. I have gone through hundreds of pellets. Read the manual. Proper maintenance will make any air gun last a long time. Pellgunoil is this gun's best friend.

The Crosman Nightstalker is a great gun for plinking. Its extremely accurate and fun to shoot. I’ve read other reviews that have complained about jams and leaks. So far, I’ve put over 1000 pellets through the gun, and it is still fully operational. This is true for two reasons: 1) As stated in the instructions, I put a drop of Pellgun Oil on the tip of every third can of Co2…this will stop the seals from drying out. 2) The breach needs to be slid ALL THE WAY open when loading/unloading the gun. The rotary clip easily slides in and out if you are cognizant of this. You should expect the occasional “misfire”, where maybe 1 or 2 pellets don’t exit the rotary clip. That being said, you still have the opportunity to send 10-11 pellets on target. Lastly, the red dot scope was a disappointment out of the box, but only at first. I had reservations about not have any magnification on the scope, and thought zeroing it in would be difficult. I couldn’t have been more wrong. Once zeroed, I say acquire and fire…you simply can’t miss."

Accurate, the laser sight scope, and the feel of the gun. It seems to have good shooting power.

The magazine is hard to load. I do not care for the plastic magazine and the loading area. Crosman generally makes good products but this area needs improvement.
