Crosman Vapor Max Pellet Rifle

good concept

bigger bolt , pic rail , stronger pump handle, feels like it will break after 5 pumps , mag needs ears to help pull it out when it misfeeds, which happens a lot , better trigger, mine is over 6 pounds , barrel crown looks horrible , single shot tray option , lower price , QC

it isn't figured out yet , buyer beware

2 pumps for 5 meter indoor. Clean break on trigger. Magazine is low in relation to sights. Excellent ergonomics. Good balance. Cycles flat nosed pellets without damaging them. Excellent accuracy with Daisy lead free pellets. At $110- it is a great deal.

A way to tune the trigger for lighter pull whilst preserving the clean break.

I purchased this directly from Crossman because I had a coupon from them.

This is the grownup Daisy 880 I have dreamed about. It has the Crosman name, but it’s a Daisy inside and out. After 3-400 pellets its smoothed out. Power os surprising. I haven’t completed speed tests, but 900 fps with light lead is typical. Accuracy varies with pellet and velocity. RWS and HN pellets group 2 MOA. That means it can group inside the kill zone of a squirrel at 50 yards. Pumping is much easier than expected. The trigger is lousy, long, creepy and unpredictable, but useful enough with practice.

First and foremost, Corporate should take this product seriously. It may just be an upgraded Daisy 880 but it has really great potential for a non-PCP option. Items to change: Better trigger. Better rear sight: partridge/aperture flip, click adjustable. Longer optics rail. Slimmer stock with more vertical pistol grip. Non-slip recoil plate.

Powerful, accurate, versatile.

Metal that replaces plastic of past models . Seems well made . At past 500 rounds no problems have surfaced . Anyone who has worked on the Daisy 880's will be right at home with this model . Out of the box the magazines are a little on the stiff side , but mine are working smooth now . I lubed all the pivot points first thing . Open sights were spot on . I mounted a Hawke Vantage 3x9x40mm AO with high rings . It has the power of a break barrel without the weight .

My biggest gripe would be shipping because FED-EX must thrown a heavier on top of it on the bolt side which dislocated the bolt , more padding in this area would help . I removed the receivers and repaired the bolt . Nothing broken . My only other Nic pick is the bolt handle could be larger . 22 caliber please .

Some are reporting that the front pivot screws are coming loose . Also that they are not getting the FPS stated on the box and its making strange noises .

I just received my first and used it quite a bit the last 2 days, I cleaned the barrel and lubed the pump. The magazine is a little bit different from other mag fed rifles but once you load a few iterations it is easy. Velocities are as advertised with lead verses alloy, my gun was zeroed in out of the box with no scope. I use these for small game in my backyard and am quite impressed thus far. I thought it would be loud but even at 10 pumps as a bit of a bark but not that which will alert your neighbors. It has a quality feel and the plastic is a good thickness from what I can tell, comfortable to hold and shoot, pumping is easy. The fiber optic front sight makes a big difference on accuracy as with the Daisy 901. I shot it at 20-30 yards with soup cans and was dead on, the exit was pronounced showing the energy of this rifle for a pneumatic. My hope is that Buckrail will produce a silencer system for this rifle. Overall I am very impressed.

Metal mags.

Don't like nothing about it

Screws all stripped out

Wish I wouldn't have bought it

This has some power for a pump up 880 like rifle. Only 2 tins of pellets down the pipe so far. Seems to be shooting lead pellets at advertised velocities.

22 caliber would be great

Check the hinge screws by removing the forearms make sure they don’t come loose. I staked them in place.
