it has more power than I expected I am breaking bottles at more than fifty feet.

is a quicker way to relaod the clip.

I use the gun almost daily for the last three months. Works the same now as it did the first day!

18 shot clip but not much more!

Everything, this was a really BAD BUY! Fired about 500 BBs and it quit, completely "crapped out". MORE BELOW:

This is an update to my original post. This is the worst gun I have bought. ( I have 5 automatics) It's light and flimsy. Cheaply made. Not accurate, BB's flying all over the place, even when the gun was supported. Jambs regularly and now the clip will not lock into the handle. Oh yea, when it worked the clip was hard to drop out, even when it was fully loaded. Definately stay away from this one.

I really like the power. The accuracy with out the red dot is great. I bought 2 extra clips and this was a great deal.

The red dot is VERY hard to sight in. The gun is light and feels cheap. You can not remove the extension on the barrel.

great gun once i got the laser sighted it worked great

grip slips if you guys could make it lock on this would be a great gun.

the look is great, everything can be removed but the barrel extention (not the compensator) and the rail i dodnt bother with because im not going to use it because i can use the sight without it. the laser sight is good for a general idea.

the rail is veeeeeerrrrrryyyyyy loose, fix that. also the co2 slider tends to slide out occasionally

Hard hitting, fairly accurate, quiet, easy to load and high capacity. If you want to target shoot and have pretty little groups you will need to break in the gun and practice. If you want to go to a safe place and absolutely annihilate cans unwrap this thing and enjoy.

Fixed sight and laser sight are hard to get used to. I don't know if it is me getting used to the gun or the gun breaking in but accuracy is improving.

A tactical firearm to me that means a rugged no frills drag it through the mud and it will still work weapon of war. I wouldnt drag this one through the mud but if you are looking for a no frills put ammo on target CO2 pistol this might be what you are looking for. It doesn't look or feel special in any way. It has no significant bells or whistles like a blowback slide in fact the hammer doesn't even move which surprises me. On the other hand this thing sends BBs down range at a reported 550 fps and after you shoot it you will be a believer. It has no problem shooting through a piece of 1/4 plywood and the wallboard behind it. Turns newspaper into confetti and magazines don't stand a chance. I'm pretty sure it has a smooth bore but even after 80 shots it seems to shoot fairly straight . The one that I have sips CO2. After 4 mags (80 rounds) the only reason I felt like I might wanted to change out the cartridge was at about 15 feet the BBs were still flying straight but started to ricochet off the plywood I was using as a backstop. I bought the pistol, 25pk of CO2, 2500 BBs and air gun oil for under $100 If you have anything else you paid more, have to reload more or at least have a less hard hitting gun. I put about 1/2 of the BBs that I bought through it and had a good time doing it. I think it shoots hard has a nice trigger pull is fairly accrete up to 50 with practice, shoots quiet enough that it won't bother my neighbors and I like that it is very cheap to shoot

I like the way the bbs fly out at 580fps,this gun feels good in your hands it is very well balanced.I love the 20 round drop out mag it is very easy to load,the hide away co2 system is a very nice touch.the over all look of the gun is very cool it look like it should be in a navy seals hands.I also love the options this gun gives you you can custom build this gun to your liking,flash light,laser,red dot sight whatever you want this gun can deliver.

i hate the crosman laser it comes with it is very hard to sight and once you do sight it it will lose its zero after a while the no/off switch is also to flimsy it will go on and off all by its self. the laser is very cheaply made and is very easy to break drop it once and you could be in trouble.I would replace the laser with a UTG laser they are top of the line very well made and they are easy to operate. the safety switch should have been placed on both sides to make it easy on left handed shooters. the gun is some what inaccurate but its ok for fun and can shooting

if you are looking for a good looking powerful gun that wont bust the bank than this is good bang for the buck i will give this gun 7 out of 10 stars.

The tactical model looks great, powerful, and has an easy load large capasity of bb's. I purchased the remanufactured that doesn't come with the original laser so I added a Walther Nighthawk laser/light to the bottom rail and it works perfect.

As many customers have reported that the accessory rail is really loose and without correction doesn't stay in place. I removed the four set screws for the weaver rail and drilled them through allowing the set screws to be replaced and threaded all the way in to the weaver frame. Now the rail is securely attached and will not move. I added a red dot sight to the top rail for day/night shooting and now this is an accurate piece of work at 15 yards.

Without making any changes that I discussed above, this will make shooting this gun frustrating and not very accurate

FPS, Laser,Rails for additional red dot sight or replacement laser,trigger.

Would make the rail more stable on top additional top mount screw.

At this price you won't find this FPS. DO NOT over tighten mounting rail, or it will lift up the top rear rail. Can super glue, or my favorite 100% silicone to top of rail, and an overnight clamp or rubberband. Great gun... saw it at big 5 for 119.99!?? Pyramyd gives you 2 for that price. BUY C-11 CLIPS 2-PK.Dats all.

LIGHT WEIGHT, ACCURATE, POWERFULL & FUN TO SHOOT

BIGGER CLIP

Shoots fast, rapid fire, long barrel, high fps,easy loading and aimimg.Great semi auto BB pistol can be very accurate if you make improvements! So, don't worry about the negative comments some people made. Get this gun! I have shot this gun at 10m, 50ft, 75ft and 90ft. Shooting 8" baloons at 90ft is fun.Targets at 10 meters(use appropriate size Bulls) and Field targets at 10m and 50ft.

Has a long trigger pull, make double action like the 1088 or 3576W. , a laser that is easy to adjust like the BSA laser.

The first thing you need to do is cut a piece of bike inner tube about half inch wide and put it on the handle to hold the grips more securely. The second thing is, remove the loose fitting rail. The holes need to be tapped all the way thru. Buy a 3mm x .5 pitch tap and a handle to turn it (Ace Hardware or Harbour Freight) and run the tap all the way thru the four holes in the rail. Reinstall the rail and tighten the screws , Now they,ll make contact with the frame! The rail will be very secure, with no wiggle. Third, don't use the Crosman laser ! It won't hold it's adjustment. I tried everything, so I put a $29 BSA laser on it, Works great. Fourth , put a BSA Dot sight on top rail, BSA Laser mounted on bottom rail, and a UTG flashlight on side rail and now you have a true tactical pistol that's cheaper than the T4 OPS or the Walther and it shoots at higher fps becausethere is actually a barrel inside the sudo suppressor. Lastly , change or adapt your shooting style. Bench shoot it on a rest (make you own shooting bench out of plywood and 2 x 4s) and slowly squeeze the trigger. It has a long pull with two parts to it. The gun does shake slightly when the hammer hits the valve but you can control most of this with a rest and shooting style and practice. Rapid fire is possible on this gun, no missfires. The gun comes with only one mag. so get 4 more clips(2 two packs).

the gun shoots 100 yards with a ratio of 1 hit every 2 shots! accuracy is ok nothing comes close in co2.

i would have made the removible top rail be secured with screws other than just slide off.

i am a marksman kinda guy and dont like cheaply made co2 gun and this gun for sure is made with quality. it is realiable and most likely will be realiable for years to come. HINT: dont shoot animals"birds, squirrels, ext. it doesnt have the knock down power for that but does pretty good damage to cans and scraps.

Easy to load (holds about 20 BB's) and was light...

I would change the crapy place where the CO2 goes....

This gun is worth the price it shoots pretty far...

The grip is one of the most comfortable that I have ever felt. The C11 also points naturally. The mock silencer contains an extended barrel giving more powerful shots. The laser is very bright. Semi-automatic. Reliability is good.

The bridge mount sight rail uses set screws to mount to the pistol, and does not mount to the accessory rail which is integral to the frame. Sights are nonadjustable. Laser can be difficult to sight in, but works fine once adjusted. Trigger pull is heavy for a double action pistol.

Take the bridge mount of the gun. I does not securely attach to the pistol and will shift, especially when heavy optics are added. I mounted the laser directly to the integral rail under the barrel, and it looks better, and is easier to operate in that position. I have 5 magazines for the C11 and I can shoot all of them without a noticeable loss in power. accuracy with Copperhead BBs is also good. I haven't tried any other BBs yet, but expect accuracy should be good with those as well. The Crosman C11 was modeled off the Beretta 9000s, which I also own. The C11 has a much nicer feeling grip and points more naturally than the 9000s and many other handguns. Firearms manufacturers can learn a thing or two in ergonomics from the C11.

the power of the this pistol is very good ,nice grip and shoots straight

the clip retainer,after about 400 rounds the clip statred to fall out and or i had a hard time getting it to stay in when loading.the lazer sight is pretty much useless it was so far off aim you had to turn the sight screw in so far to adjust it would shut the lazer off.

shots per co2 tank , power , easy to load

trigger pull , quad rail ( cheap )

The trigger pull on this gun is awful. I have to pull the trigger all the way back to the grip to fire. For this reason Accuracy is not the best . The power of this gun is great . Took out a mouse @ 5yds . Went threw one side of a soup can @ 15yds . I get about 9 clips out of 1co2 tank . First 6-7 clips stay strong .

I liked the fact that the laser has different mounting spots and that the co2 loading spot slides out.

the silencer because it has a tube that goes into the silence. The silencer is just a cover

the trigger is kind of hard to pull and when you pull it back it shakes the gun making it not as accurate. you get about 100 to 150 shots befor the co2 runs out.

cheap, powerful, easy, fairly accurate

when you unscrew the the suppressor the barrel sticks out quite a bit. just looks like a long skinny pipe sticking out of the front of the gun. So don't do like I did and buy this thinking you could remove the suppressor and have a more powerful c11... the longer barrel is why this version is more powerful.

good feel in your hands and when fired. top rail is ideal for a BSA red dot. fairly accurate to 15 ft but after that tends to travel a bit left and right.

better spring on the magazine to ensure the first round feeds every time. raise the rail a bit to allow use of front sights w/ accessories attached. lose the laser and maybe offer a reddot instead.

I liked cheap price and high velocity for its class. Also the semi-realistic look and perhaps weight were some good points.

The rail on top blocks the sights, so just get rid of it. The laser doesn't work at all in sunlight, and in the shade or indoors is hard to sight in.

This gun's "silencer" doesn't make it any quieter than most co2 pistols. In fact I have one without a "silencer" that is quieter. Also the wierd trigger action seems to lead to inaccuracy.
