Crosman PSM45 BB Pistol

For $20 the PSM45 is hard to beat.. fun, low cost, feels good in the hands, fires smoothly, good accuracy, cocks easily, and loads easy with a drop down clip. Stick with all steel BBs and cock it nicely and the gun performs well.

Pros
Overall this is a good gun.. and very fun to shoot. When comparing the 200FPS guns (springers) this one has the edge on overall accuracy after it breaks in and is very comparable in accuracy to the Umarex DX17. Once is breaks in strays are greatly reduced and I can put all rounds within a very reasonable dispersion pattern at about 10-15ft firing free hand. Of all the springers this one has the most feel of a real gun and a great metal slide with almost no recoil and is fairly quiet.

Cons
The PSM45 - can at times - bleed BBs in the chamber. Easiest way to remove them is to take out the magazine carefully and cock it halfway to open up the chamber and let the BBs fall out the grip. Best way to avoid losing BBs in the chamber it to not cock it too fast and, from what I found, only use full steel BBs like the Daisy Premiums or Umarex BBs. Cocking is smoothly to the rear until it clicks, and then forward until it clicks seems to work best. I do not recommend using Copperhead or Marksmen BBs.. they seem to have more of a tendency to not chamber and load as efficiently. Even though the gun is pretty well designed I think the chamber could have been built with a bit tighter tolerances.

Note The BBs Fall Out Every Time And It Stopped Firing After 10-20 Shots. I would Give 0 Stars If I Could.

Pros
I Like How Its Solid And It Looks Real.

Cons
I would Change How The BBs Fall Out And How Its Stops Firing After 10-20 Shots.

Great for the price for a metal BB springer. Resonable accuracy.

Pros
Looks nice, A bit light and slide heavy, so I added some by stuffing putty (cheap!) into the empty rear section of handle in separated area behind the mag. Clean trigger pull.

Cons
Rattling slide.

Best gun for the price!!

Pros
No Co2 needed

The bb's fallout when you point it down to cock it. it started to fall apart. it only shot 50% of the time you fired it. oh an don't buy it!!!!

Pros
There was nothing i liked except it did not need a co2

Cons
i would change everything!!

Pros
Excellent for the price, feels solid and shoots well at short ranges.

Cons
Nothing, low FPS is what I needed since I wanted to shoot in the garage.

make the Kac 5.56x45mm NATO / 37mm chainsaw

Pros
everything is cool great accuracy I was able to catch a rabbit this time great for hunting

Cons
the grip feels weird

Pros
Nice design, good price, Fast delivery!

This gun is remarkably solid - great weight, metal mag and slide - it feels as good as the H&K USP (especially now that gun comes with a plastic mag which only lasts 3-4 uses). You can get this gun for a great price if you shop it, but it's actually worth the full asking price hear anyway. Sure, power is limited, but it shoots reliably, MUCH straighter than the Daisy 340 (and actually makes the daisy look as bad as it is), and if you're looking for a CO2-free close range pistol, this is it.

Pros
Looks and feels great Nice weight Metal mag Shoots straight Easy to cock (especially compared to the slippery plastic of the 340)

Cons
Handle a bit hard and plasticky but the metal slide makes up for it. Lacks power - but for a springer it's just dandy.

Cheap spring air pistols have been around for decades. I have a marksman 2002, Daisy powerline 201 and Daisy powerline 340 and this new crosman PSM 45 is better than all of them!

Pros
Metal slide and spring fed magazine. Good accuracy from 5 meters

Cons
Slide catch/release doesn't function. I wouldn't mind if it was harder to cock with a stronger main spring if it had a higher muzzle velocity. 200 fps is OK but 300 fps would be great!
