PorkPieHat –
Critics of this gun point out that it’s plastic and has several weak points – and I can’t dispute that. It can and has for some people broken at the extendable stock, at the plastic Picatinny/Weaver rails, or at the cocking lever. So, just treat it gently.
Reputedly, this is an upgrade to the venerable Crosman 760, and to some extent it is, but I first got a Crosman 760 PowerMaster four decades ago, and it had a walnut stock with all steel construction. You could definitely abuse it, but you can’t do that to this gun. So, don’t expect to. I’m sure Crosman could build it that way, but then it would be much heavier and cost twice as much.
Assorted comments:
– Noise: This gun is the quietest one I own with a sound about the same as snapping your fingers. Since I like to fire mine in the middle of the night, that’s great since I won’t annoy the neighbors.
– Weight: Some consider this to be a flaw, but I love the fact that it’s light in weight. My Crosman Vantage and Crosman Nitro Venom Dusk are heavy air guns, and that makes them harder to control.
– The Picatinny/Weaver mount on the cocking lever is useless – just cosmetic, and the mounts on the barrel are limited in usefulness. However, I did mount an NcStar red dot laser sight on the top mount and a UTG tactical bipod on the lower one. The laser sight is a bit pointless since I really just use the scope, but it’s below the level of the scope, and it takes a bit of finesse to cock the gun with the bipod attached, but it’s not much of a problem.
– The trigger pull/action is outstanding. It’s very smooth – better for accuracy than the stock triggers on any of my other guns. [The triggers on my Vantage and Nitro Venom will be replaced by GRT-III triggers from Charlie Da Tuna.]
– Attachments: I put on a Center Point 4X32 scope (which I took off of my Vantage), a $15 NcStar red dot laser sight on the rail above the barrel, and a UTG tactical bipod (which I also took off of my Vantage since the “artillery hold” works better). A compact 4X30 scope from NcStar is only $19, it’s well-reviewed, and I’d recommend getting one. I did not install or try out the “iron sights” since I have “old eyes”, but they might work fine for you.
– Extra magazines: I bought four extra magazines, and after cutting the “fingers” off of the foam in the fake/hollow magazine, all five of them fit in there just perfectly.
– Cocking the gun: Because of the reputed fragility of the extendable/adjustable stock, I place the index finger of my left hand on the “T” that is right behind my scope with my thumb approximately next to the BB fill hole. It’s a comfortable position and places no strain on the weaker part of the gun. Because of the bipod, I rotate my right hand downward as I pump it. It’s mildly inconvenient but not a big deal.
– Following a tip from another reviewer, I put a few self-stick felt pads (the kind used for cabinet doors) on the “U” of the cocking lever, and it quiets down the “slap” of the lever against the barrel.
– Accuracy: Here is where this gun absolutely shines (and where I was quite pleasantly suprised!). On my “short range” of 25 feet (with a scope, a bipod, and five pumps), I can often place five [Crosman Field Hunting] pellets into a single hole 1/4″ in diameter – and I’m not even all that good! I have other guns for power or semi-auto can plinking, but this is a great target shooter. The gun is more accurate than I am.
Don’t expect this gun to be something it’s not or more than it is, but if you want a cool-looking, very accurate target shooter that is quiet and cheap to fire, I highly recommend it.

Flyin Brian –
This was my next purchase after returning a Daisy 880 (which had serious accuracy problems).
What I originally wanted was an adult version of the Daisy Red Ryder, which no one makes.
I wanted single lever action, but over 400 fps and NO CO2. I HATE loading bb’s and especially pellets, so I wanted something simple and easy. A single shot break barrel was out of the question for me.
I own a real M4, so the idea to fulfill a training need to replace the M4 with a multi-pump gun seemed like a joke to me.
But as a bb pellet gun, don’t dismiss this gun based on it’s looks. This is a really well designed gun.
The horizontal sliding pellet clip is pure genius as is the bb holder & resivour design and the fact that it holds the sight adjustment tool and two spare clips in the fake magazine. All of this is awesome. The bb’s and pellets are super-easy to load, so if you are like me, you will love this gun.
So, let’s get to the elephant in the room…… it’s a multi-pump air gun, which means at least twice as much work as the Red Ryder.
However, I took a 2×2 piece of redwood and did a penetration test. 1 of 4 stuck into the wood with the Red Ryder. 3 of 4 stuck into the wood with only 2 pumps with the Crosman M4-177. So, for indoor plinking or targets, 2 pumps will do andwill in fact be more powerful than the Red Ryder. I did not test 2 pumps with the pellets, since I didn’t want to risk a jam.
With 10 pumps;
The Daisy 880 sank a bb 5/16″ into the wood, where the M4-177 was 3/8″.
HOWEVER…. the 880 was very, very easy to pump, where the M4-177 is not and after 2 pumps, i find myself putting my right hand right next to rear sight, so forget a scope.
Of couse, as you would imagine, the M4-177 totally and completely feels like a toy in my hands compared to the real thing, so no surprise there. It’s a lot of platic. The sights took a bit of getting used to, so plan on spending some time to understand the sights and follow the included cheat-sheet that is provided, which is really helpfull.
To be improved;
1. Would be really cool if the charging handled worked to pull back the bolt. The tiny, one fingered lever wears on your pinky under heavy, fast use if you are not used to it.
2. Crosman desperately needs to remove the additional thing extruding from the pump handle. Not sure what that is for but it is annoying and would be much more comfortable without it.
3. A break barrel version of this same gun with the same bolt and pellet clip functions would be amazing.
4. A little more weight would be nice.
UPDATE:
Also recently purchased a Crosman DSBR SBR and I find myself reaching for this M4-177 far more often than the DRBR.
The DSBR is much more realistic in every way. I am not much of a fan of full auto, but i do like the blowback and the semi-auto. The DSBR actually is a decent training tool for a .223 M4. But since it is CO2, you really shouldn’t leave a charged cylinder in it.
All that being said, i really love the M4-177. Much as I still love the Red Ryder.
I love not having to use CO2 and having the M4-177 always ready to shoot, and not having to shoot it until the CO2 runs dry.
It is also w a y quieter than the DSBR, so i can shoot it at night in my garage without disturbing anyone, even if it is just for 2 minutes, when I have a free moment.
It’s simple, it’s accurate, it feels good, it’s always ready to shoot, it shoots bb’s or pellets, and it’s powerful when you need it to be.
If you will only own one air gun, this is it.
I am very tempted to buy another one or two to just leave in the box in case this one ever dies.
