Page 3 - Crosman Raven Reviews

this is my first Pellet gun, so I have nothing to compare it against. I like the style. the stock is a dense plastic like material. It feels good, not cheap. It will last a long time. The Raven is easy to cock, I've already fired 1000 pellets through mine. Pretty accurate. It's not a big gun, but it feel good when you shoulder it.

The trigger is a little stiff. make it softer. The open sights need to be improved. Just put a scope on it

It makes a great gun for an older shooter with arthritis as well as younger shooters. It had out of the box accuracy that I haver never had before.

The sights are not the best and I think the company could make them stronger and not add a lot of cost to the gun. These are standard sights for most of the Crossman guns and they all pretty well suck as far as being very sturdy. They do work until they are bumped and seem to be fairly easy to break.

The first one I bought had some factory problems ie; screws holding barrel were buggered when I opened the package, it didn't cock properly after about 200 shots. Pyramyd Air took care of the problems and sent me a new one in about a week.

i like how accurate it is.

make the thum whole a tad bit smaller.

I bought the pink version of this for my wife hoping that she would come shoot some stuff with me and it worked out well on my part. It is light compact and easy to break down. The pistol grip makes this outstanding to shoot with a red dot scope. I think i have more fun shooting it then her just because of how easy and fun this rifle is.

The sights need to be a harder plastic or metal. But that is why i bought a red dot scope with see thru mounts, made the gun a 100 percent better.

Also just to add the trigger on this one is meant for the rifle light pull just wide enough and not far for travel, and it makes it dead nuts accurate.

This rifle is perfect for my 8 year old (small stature) son to learn to shoot with. He can cock & load it himself and it has plenty of power & great accuracy for him to learn to shoot. The shorter stock fits him well, but it has enough length to allow me to shoot it, too.

The safety is hard to push, but it's still new and I hope it becomes easier with a bit of "breaking in".

This rifle should be good to use just as it comes, but I added a decent quality scope (CenterPoint 3-9X) before I sighted it in. It is very accurate at the closer ranges we have shot it at (under 25 yards) and is just what I was looking for to introduce a young shooter to airguns. The barrel takes a sharp "rap" at the muzzle to open the action and locks closed solidly. At 10 yards with a solid rest I was shooting a "one ragged hole" group while sighting it in. This appears to be a great gun for introducing a young person to the enjoyment of airgun shooting!

fit and feel are great,its a straight shooter and a light easy loading gun.great buy.

it could use better sights, i just dont like my sights to be plastic

for the money you cant beat it.

After just a few adjustments, the accuracy was outstanding. Very easy to cock and the right weight for a young shooter. 600 fps is so much more fun for the young shooters too.

Nothing.

For the young shooters first pellet glun...it's a great start.
