General Comments

The Crossman 357 Revolver air pistol is NOT a great gun. I feel former reviews have been far too praise filled for the following reasons:

A lot of plastic. I'm not kidding, I rarely see this much plastic on co2 pistols in this price range. It's also not very cheap for what it is...I think they run about $40-$45 depending on where you go. I personally HAD 2 of them that cost about $40. First thing I noticed, like all other co2 revolver types I've owned, it's not that powerful. You get about 10-20 decent shots per co2 (that I quite honestly don't feel were that powerful). Accuracy is decent for something that breaks at the barrel for loading, which is not saying much. This is made for targets at very close range, no pest control. I unloaded a cylinder of hunting tip pellets on a squirrel with fresh co2 that DID NOT kill it.
Lastly, I'd like to mention the deaths for my Crossman 357s. The first was due to a seal leak, the second had major barrel rust (inside! I've never seen this happen before) and seal leak.
I'd NEVER buy another Crossman 357 air pistol again. They might look cool, but they don't shoot cool.

    If you are offended by plastic on an air pistol, why would you purchase two of them in the first place?

    Hi there, not to sound mean here, but why buy 2 ? If the first one was so bad, , and the reason all co'2 guns "feel" weak is because there is no recoil or jump and clang that you feel with say a spring gun, Hence the impression of weakness, and why oh why would you even think of shooting a squirrell with it?? It is a pistol, all but a few of which are far too low in power to even consider hunting with, that poor squirrell, at least you could have shot it with something that would kill it instantly, not just empty a mag into it and watch it suffer, not cool, not cool at all!!

    I agree, not cool, I wouldn't hunt squirrels with anything less than a .22 in the 800-1000 fps range. I know people kill with less, but it is not humane, shame on you.
