I picked up this CO2 pistol this afternoon at a local Meijer. Recently the laws on pneumatic guns in Michigan have been changed. This is a nice little target shooter, and has a nice feel. It took some learning to see how to load the gas cartridge and the magazine, but I managed to figure out most of it without having to re-consult the manual. I would prefer larger print in the instructions. My eyes are not as good as they used to be when I was young.
The C11 was fairly loud for an airgun, though pistols tend to be louder because of the higher pressure when the projectile leaves the barrel. I started at a distance of about ten yards or so and managed to keep the shots on the cardboard box, if not the target. I have never done any real pistol shooting, and bought this gun in order to learn, as well as begin a new hobby. The C11 is very exciting to shoot, especially with the high rate of fire.
My main problem was learning to reload the magazine effectively. I had problems initially with BBs falling out of the end of the mag and preventing a solid seating of the magazine in the gun. In fact, the first time I shot the gun, the mag partially ejected. A bit of practice solved this problem. This evening I had a thought, and it has proven to be effective. I used a simple soda straw, the kind that bend, and scooped up a load of BBs. The plastic straw loads the magazine quickly and extremely accurately, and is basically free.
I ended up shooting about 120 rounds, with one misfire, which cleared itself upon the next trigger pull. The CO2 cartridge still seems to have plenty of charge. The three stars in accuracy is mostly my own fault, as I tend to pull the pistol to the right when pulling the trigger. With practice I am sure this will improve, as with anything.
Be sure to wear eye protection, as steel shot like a BB will bounce like a Superball from anything hard it hits, and flick on the safety when you are done pulling the trigger.

For the price, I love it. Shot 6 c02 carts so far and no problem, tested seal and with the oil, it lasted 4+ weeks still shot thru .25 inch plexiglass

Very realistic operation, fairly smooth DA trigger, 480fps…sometimes…maybe… but, very nice for a BB gun.

It’s small, snappy, able to fit inside of an average pocket. Easy to use, lots of fun to shoot, and it’s a great deal for the price. Slightly inaccurate. Bit of recoil. Decently loud. Tiny barrel, which is more of a pro for me, but some people like longer.

i received a spare clip/magazine. the quality is much less than the original. it doesn’t retain bbs on upper end very well. you have to be careful loading the clip and putting the clip in the pistol. many bbs on the floor. wish i could get spare with original quality.

Excellent gun for the price. I had some trouble with the mag but after picking up a couple of dozen bbs during reload attempts I figured out the slide and spring. It works well chasing critters out of the vegetable garden. I’d recommend this piece to anyone looking for a reliable inexpensive gun for plinking or target shooting.

Fun to shoot, great for plinking. Can shoot around 5 magazines for one CO2 cartridge. Only issue I had, which why I’m keeping at a full 5 stars now, is because the magazine I got didn’t work. It wouldn’t shoot, and even when I managed too it just dumped out more than half of the bbs. But besides the lost CO2 cartridge, they did send me a new magazine which is a bit different and heavy. Either way, I highly recommend getting this bb pistol especially if you’re new to using a CO2 gun or a bb gun in general.

I am TRUELY disappointed with this brand new Crosman C11 pistol! And I really hate to say that because when I ordered it I was really looking forward to it arriving. At first I had a lot of faith in it. I thought that it was exactly what I needed. But now, since I have had it for a couple weeks, I am truly disappointed! I don’t know if it’s just a very poor design or possibly I received a lemon ( more than likely, a little bit of both).
First, I realized that it’s a MAJOR pain in the rear just to load it! Some how, you have to hold the magazine with one finger over the "injector" end of the magazine (so the bb’s won’t come out when you release the spring) and ATTEMPT to put another finger over the other end of the mag., which is extremely hard to do, since there is a plastic pin, attached to the spring that is sticking out that end. And while you’re doing all of that, you have to remember to lean the "ejector" end down so the bb’s won’t come out when you release the spring.
Also, each and every time you release the mag. to remove it, you can expect a loose bb to run out of the the mag. hole. Just now, I attempted to fire it. Believe it or not, it miss fired three out of five attempts! Then when I removed the mag, out comes the bb’s that should have been launched!
And the kicker to everything, when it does actually discharge a bb, I noticed that it is so weak that the bb starts falling at about 25 feet!
And check this out! When I was going to contact the manufacturer, I looked all over the gun for some information and THERE WAS NONE! All it has is a large C11 emblem and a picture of a target on the handle. Who makes a product without even putting their name on it some where?!?!
The bottom line is, if this is as good as a human can design a product, we’re in big, big trouble!!!!

The title of this review was the first words that came out of my mouth and throughout my afternoon of target and object shooting with my new Crossman C-11 I purchased at Tractor Supply Muncie,In., whom I’m giving props for their friendly help and patience in my selection of this little badass.I’ve owned quite a few co2’s and still have a few that I keep around to keep accuracy skills in check along with good ol plinkin fun on those boring afternoons,and I’m here to tell ya now,Right outta the gate,I fired off over 600 shots today with complete and total accuracy in hitting dang near 95% everything I shot at. I hit multiple target set ups of soda/beer cans empty and full (only soda cans in the full dept),ha,ha ,bullseye targets,face and whole body drawn targets dangling and moving around,milk jugs filled with water that led to 36 out of 40 shots penetrating and exiting the jugs,full soup and veggie cans and different hard surface objects to test the penetration at different intervals of the co2 usage.I own a Crossman Vigilante which is one of the top rated beasts among the best co2’s out there for power and accuracy,and I will put my C-11 right along beside it for what I experienced today with it…All shooting done with only 3 misfires and 4 cylinders with gas to spare.I am going to purchase a couple of more before the year ends for backups..My opinion with a smile on my face…"Great gun go getcha one"…If there were 5 more stars,I’d check em too !!…One thing I wanna say while I have the platform….Wear safety glasses because the more power your gun puts out ,the harder and faster the ricochet is when bouncing off of hard surfaces,and for all of the co2 leaks happening out there,Pelgunoil on the tip of the co2 is a must to keep the seal from leaking…
what I experienced today from this little high powered beast is nothing short of amazing

Purchased this pistol for the squirrels that raid my bird feeders. Precise & enough power to deter them from returning. Mush easier to shoot than a long gun
Frederick Rehbein –
easy to shoot. need to get better at loading it faster, but its a fun little gun to shoot at squirrels or birds outside.

Had this loaded and ready to go in my bikebag while riding my new ebike because of inconsiderate neighbors letting their dogs run loose in my neighborhood. While riding my bike I got charged by a loose Rottweiler on the street. I pulled out my C11 and shot once in it’s direction and the dog stopped chasing me. Stopping the dog from chasing me and potentially biting me or not having to shoot the dog dead with an actual firearm makes carrying the C11 worth every penny and I’m happy to say it saved the day.

My Cross man C11 semi-automatic air pistol arrived quickly. The air pistol is in excellent condition, strong, tight and accurate. Great for improving shooting skill and packs a wallop on the tin soup cans, usually blowing through both sides. They answered my one email within hours and the entire buying experience was one of the best I’ve ever had. Definitely will purchase from them again.
