Crosman Full Auto R1 CO2 BB Air Rifle Series

It feels way realistic, well-made, fun to fire, accurate (the red dot optics in the attached picture are my own, not the original, which was just fine until I damaged its reflective glass). I only wish I Crosman had a better design where the CO2 canisters are placed inside the rifle itself instead of the magazine, so we can have multiple filled magazines instead of being forced to refill the same magazine in the middle of shooting. The blowback is awesome. Never forget to wear safety goggles as BBs could ricochet in any direction. Treat it like a real rifle, respect it so it won't get you or your loved ones in accidents. This is not a toy. It can penetrate food cans (especially at the beginning of the CO2 canister), so be aware, and have fun with it responsibly. You can customize it like a real M4 (as you can see in the attached picture). It will consume its BBs and the CO2 quickly if you go full auto, so short-controlled bursts are the best for longer fun, control, and accuracy. If I had the money, I'd purchase its AK version too.

I got this as a Christmas gift and have only shot it enough to use 4 Co2 cylinders, but the fun factor is off the charts! It's not a target rifle but for plinking and full auto fun... It's great. The red dot works fine. I can refill the magazine at least 3, maybe 4 times before running low on Co2. The trigger has a pretty hard pull, but maybe it will get better over time.. The Crosman R1 is pretty darn realistic looking and if you didn't know it was an air rifle you'd think it was a "real" AR-15 with a short barrel. It's not light weight and feels solid, the charging handle works just like a real AR, the safety/selector switch works just like the one on a real select fire AR (3 position), the bolt release, magazine release, and ejection port cover function just like a real AR. The stock it's self is realistic and is adjustable to 6 positions, but the buffer tube is not exactly the same as a real one. Even the take down pins work like on a real AR, except the front one can be pushed all the way out, unlike on a real AR. The only thing not functional is the forward assist button. A few tips.. Put a drop of Crosman pellgun oil on the seals of the cylinders before you install them. Don't over tighten the screws after you break the seals on the cylinders. Don't leave cylinders in the magazine for long periods of time when you're not shooting the rifle. Remove them when you're done shooting (use them up before removing them). Don't expect to shoot Aspirin sized targets at 30', but it will shred aluminum pop cans! You might want to lube the BB loader with a shot of silicone spray lube to make if function easier. It truly is about as much fun as you can have without going through the huge hassle of a BATF check, the HUGE expense of a transferable full-auto weapon, and the outrageous cost of ammo these days. The cost of BB's and Co2 is small, but the fun is HUGE!!! I've added a picatinny mounted front sling swivel and a tactical sling from Amazon. I had the vertical for grip with a flashlight left over from my days as a LEO...

Awesome gun! The bbs being shot out of this gun are powerful enough to decimate a beer bottle from over 10 ft away! Only thing I wish is the clip would hold more than 25 BBs.

Weapon is very accurate. I placed an Eotech replica on an zeroed it in at 150ft an will go beyond 500 ft, I mainly use this just for plinking an target practice an to keep muscle memory sharp, would love to find an extra magazine for it that's proving difficult to find. The full auto cycles super fast an will blaze a mag super fast even when weathering trigger to keep it at an even cycle rate so you dont over chill rhe CO2 barrels. Have lots of fun but don't recommend foe a younger child. Maybe a reasonable 13 to 14 to teach them gun safety. Enjoy an have fun

Is Nice And Works Excelent

Live it. Co2 burns quick. Two or three magazines. But fun to shoot targets with the neighborhood kids. Not the kids, Paper targets. In a safe direction.

It's a little heavy but works great!

Haven’t even shot it yet went to load the clip and the spring popped out partially and BB’s got jammed within the spring. So now I am forced to buy another clip.
