Now that I have really been getting into Air Gunning, I am looking to purchase another one! However, it does need to be a Crosman, for they are my YouTube Sponsor.

I already own: 760 Pumpmaster, Recruit, Trail Np Xl 1500, Nitro Venom Dusk, and 1377c.

Any Ideas on another great Crosman? Preferably a Rifle.

Does Benjamin count as a "crosman"

Jr. Squirreler · Veteran Member

Of course. Thats why I mentioned the Trail. Smile

I personally think you need a crosman 2300 or 2400. That way you can say I have a custom rifle. I say it all the time. Laughing

How about something classic american made and very nice to look at. The 392 or 397. AKA the "streaks"

I have had my Eye on the Streaks for a while. I just don't really know too many people that have it, so I really cant get any feedback on how it performs.

The 760 built my arms up when I was a kid. lol Maybe the silver streak is the same way. I am lazy in my old age though. If it isn't a break barrel or CO2 I don't want anything to do with it. Razz

Hahaha. Your right. My right arm was pretty brawlic for an 8 year old. That pumping was a little tough. I feel the same way about not wanting pumps and Im only 14!! Razz

The Silver Streak would be good too because I have yet to add a .22 to my Collection. If I purchase this, it would be a good opportunity to try .22.

The 2400 is available as .22 or .177. THe Titan GP from walmart is also .22. I like my titan. It needs a better trigger but who's airgun doesn't? lol I am pretty sure it's the same as one of the NPs just with a cheaper grade scope hardware and stock. It is kind of weighty though.

I have the nirto Venom Dusk which is relatively close to the Titan, and I am really impressed. I think I might buy the Trail's "Little Brother"

Well from my experience the streaks are impeccably made and have ragged hole accuracy ...and they are one of the last truly American made classics. One of the reasons you don't see many reviews on the streaks is because they are solid reliable and accurate...and they have been around forever. So nobody has anything to say.

I admit I love the idea of being able to order a custom 2300kt or 2400kt but they are CO2.And for me that means I get to enjoy it for about 4 months a year. And as the crow flies your not too far away from me Jr. Something to keep in mind

I struggled with the CO2 quandary for months before I decided to buy the AR2078 I wanted so bad and then just bite the bullet to convert to HPA

Yeah. I have one C02 Pistol, and I really can't shoot it too often. The weather really gets to the C02 Cartridges. Plus I was never really a fan of having to pay for the Cartridges. 9I know, Im a bit of a Cheapo) Wink

Why stay with Crosman only?

You are missing on high quality rifles by brand restricting yourself, and makes the sport much more challenging when having to adapt to other brands.

I know. I would like to start shooting Foreign air rifles. However, since my YouTube Channel is sponsored by Crosman Corp. it sort of needs to be a Crosman Air Rifle if it wants to make an appearance on my channel.

Pfff, sponsorship sucks. Razz

To be fair, I really like the Ruger Blackhawk. It's a pretty good clone and I had some good times with it. Selling it today though. Mr. Green
