“The crosman 1077 is the best gun ever! Killed all...”
Written on: 24/05/2011
The crosman 1077 is the best gun ever! Killed all sorts of birds with 1 shot. Once,I shot a male cowbird out of a group of 6 or 7. I saw the group, snuck behind some trees, sat down, and waited. Unexpectically, the birds kept walking toward me.There were a few other males, so I picked out the biggest one and fired. It died instantly. It is extremely accurate. Killed bottle caps at 10 yards, eggs out to 25 yards. Oh, and by the way, if you want a gun that could down a woodchuck, fox, or even... (read more)

Written on: 13/05/2008
This is probably the best air rifle i have ever used and will take all kinds of things and pests i have shot and taken down in one shot pigeons, sparrows, starlings, and other small stuff. The sparrow i shot with it was HUGE it was as big as a peanut butter jar and all it took was one shot to kill it. It also makes a great target rifle because it is pretty accurate once you set up the sites i can hit a coke bottle
50 ft away.

Written on: 28/09/2007 by andyd93 (2 reviews written)
I got this rifle (the first air rifle that has belonged to me) for £99 with 3 x 12g cylinders, 1x tin of Milbro Caledonion and 12 x SMK paper targets from a guy who has a shop that is closing at the end of the month.
Anyway, back to the gun. A very solid built, quality gun. Stock, trigger, trigger guard, magazine, and rotary wheel in clip are all made of ABS which is a very tough, hardened plastic. The barrel (outer and rifled inner) are brass.
A very good rifle for beginners and the more...

Written on: 13/08/2007 by CenturionKX1230 (3 reviews written)
After having tried two specimens of the NightStalker variety, I gave up and decided to go with the tried and true 1077 Repeater.
My initial experience was one of pleasant surprise and that lasted until I attempted to adjust the standard sight. The initial grouping at 10 meters was a nice and tight 2 cm and had I not had a regimental dinner the evening before, I might have been able to whittle it down to within a single centimeter or less. I consider this quite satisfactory for a weapon in...

Written on: 30/07/2007 by airsmith282 (2 reviews written)
good gun for 90% plastic, if you have power isses then chck the nozzle oring out, New seals perhaps are also in order if the power loss is not cured as valve stem seals where out in these guns after a lot of rounds i usually replace every seal in the gun not just one. A new hammer spring from time to time if you shoot it a lot, for the cheap upkeep on the gun its lasted so far thousands of rounds and i have had it for 3 years now and its still one of my favourite guns..
I'd recommend that...

Written on: 14/07/2007 by Bella0000 (11 reviews written)
Was generally satisfied until my rifle died and being it is only approx. 2 years old I felt that was a little premature. Crosman does not show much concern for the customer if the warranty has expired. I own several air guns so the amount of use was moderate. Initial cost with the air source was $100 which in not bad but the product should last longer than it did. I think it would be wise to build quality product even if the cost was a little more.

I don't normally slam products but there is a time and a place for everything.
In an effort to give this rifle a fair shot, I exchanged the first one and tried again. Too bad both rifles gave me the same results.
Here is the 1077 experience...
1. Insert the co2 cart.
2. Insert a loaded clip of 12 pellets
3. Shoot through first 12 pellets at 700-650 feet per second (fps) velocity
4. Load your second clip of 12 pellets
5. Shoot the first 3 at 700-650fps and then watch the velocity drop to...

Your problem is obvious, and it's YOU and not the rifle.
<br/>
<br/>One of two things may be happening :
<br/>
<br/>1. This gun uses a load of CO2
<br/>
<br/>2. You have to wait for the CO2 to WARM UP after the first magazine, because it will get down to about 5 degrees if you shoot rapidly.
<br/>
<br/>You should try using up the first magazine, and then wait a good 5 minutes or so before using a second one. This will allow the CO2 capsule to warm up again, giving the 600-700fps performance.

Written on: 12/07/2007
I allowed the gun sit outside for 30 minutes with a fresh co2 cart. loaded prior to testing on several occasions with no improvement at all. I also allowed time between shots to avoid freezing the valve. The fact is that my practices gave these two examples a better opportunity to perform than the average customer would and in neither case did it shoot as advertised. This was confirmed by a conversation with Crosman who suspected a faulty valve and suggested I send the gun in for service. They also indicated that I should be able to obtain 30-40 shots at rated power in the conditions I noted.
<br/>
<br/>Since you seem to be very knowledgeable, perhaps you would be willing to share a recent chrony string from your gun.

I had the same problem with the small c02 's. I get only 24 good shots and then it is useless after that. I tried to ignore the fact I had to replace the c02 every other clip. after 1week and 30 c02 caplets, I returned it. What good is a repeater that shoots fast if you cannot even shoot thru two clips without a new gas capsule! I will get the airsource version next time for sure. other than that, I really like the gun .

Written on: 22/06/2007 by mnshoot (2 reviews written)
Many pellet gun owners like the 1077 because it is so darn easy to modify.
The greatest enemy of any gas gun is getting liquid CO2 into the seals. You must keep the liquid as far away from the seals as possible (or you will eventually fry them and they will leak). The method below not only results in an economical rifle, but one that absolutely keeps liquid from the seals.
In the name of economy (because it is very expensive to operate this rifle), I have bulked the two I own.

Written on: 19/06/2007 by hrw0488 (1 review written)
I bought my first model 1077 some time ago to combat squirrels that had become increasingly invasive and destructive. I was very, very pleased. the powerlet provided a ready reservoir of CO2.
Multiple shots are needed for the agile, fast-moving squirrels. Accuracy was very good. I had no complaints at all for a year or two. Apparently the seal or gasket that holds the CO 2 deteriorated, because a day or two after loading the powerlet, the gun wouldn't fire because all the CO2 had leaked...

if you left the co2 in that is why it leaked it says on the manual storing with co2 in it will damage seals

Written on: 23/05/2007 by peter1377 (1 review written)
I have had this gun for about two week. This gun shoots much better than I expected. Can't complain about the plastic at this price point.
I've used it with powerlets and the airsource, works well with both; I think I am getting more velocity with the Airsouce (subjectively).
The only change I plan on making is to upgrade the rear site which is very cheap and will move around unless you are careful not to bump it.
I have had better accuracy with heavier/longer pellets (Beeman and Diablo)...

Written on: 19/05/2007 by mstecker (1 review written)
The Crosman 1077W CO2 repeater is the worst air rifle I have used (I have used 3). The power is ridiculously low and is slightly less than my Chinese air soft AEG. It barely shoots through cardboard with Crosman wad cutters and is unable to shoot down metal targets made for air rifle use. A shooting test on a telephone book showed it only penetrated a few pages compared to 20 mm (about 10 times as much) with my Chinese springer which cost $20 less and has nicer wood stock and rubber...

Written on: 30/04/2007 by spasor (3 reviews written)
I bought this rifle purely as a fun gun. It has not disappointed me. Apart from the power loss if used too enthusiastically I found my only complaint was the open sights. But I`m not an open sights person anyway. A cheap red dot sight soon made amends.
You`ll need to invite your mates around though. I`m not a great lover of fizzy drinks and I need an awful lot of empty cans.
One of the advertising pieces reckons a guy hit 12 targets in 2 seconds!! I hope he stays off the kryptonite.

I purchased the Crosman 1077 Repeater from Pyramyd about two weeks ago. I had read other reviews, and I was concerned that the construction was almost all plastic. While this is true, the feel of the gun and the build quality are excellent, despite the plastic use. I wanted a CO2 powered semi automatic action rifle, and I was surprised that there were so few choices in this category. I purchased extra magazines (package of 3) and a speed loader. This turned out to be an excellent investment... (read more)

I got a synthetic stock 1077 around 5 years ago at around USD170. I love the look of the gun, all black and feels right when you have it hand (Well balanced, not too light / too heavy).
This synthetic stock from the 1077 is totally different from the plastic stock on the Crosman 760 and the Daisy 880. The Daisy 880 stock feels like junk, the Crosman 760 stock is a bit better. The synthetic stock on the 1077 is in fact better than real wood stock. It is easy to clean, durable, and not easy...

Yesterday i went to a big 5 and bought a Crosman 1077, i was excited to test it and when i finally got home i ripped the box open, loaded it up and set up a target. It only took 4 shots to adjust the scope and i was shooting from about 50ft and was hitting pinpoint shots. It's a blast to shoot but conserve your shots because those pellets disappear but overall its a great gun but I've only had it for one day so i will update later on (read more)

Shopping around I found in Sport Authority "Upgrade Kit For Crosman 1077 Repeater", then in one of the K- Mart Ifound the Crosman 1077. I put it together after some shooting with use of single CO2 cartridge. Och that was fun: accuracy 88% to 95% together with repeating shooting and increased velocity.
I don't know what feels better simplicity of it or ability to discharge round with really good accuracy.

A coyote or fox shot with this gun would just laugh at you. This gun is not nearly powerful enough to take down much more than a squirrel. Also, shooting a bottle cap at ten yards and egg at 25? Any decent air gun can do that.

My c02 pistols can go through glass jars at 10 meters. That does not under any circumstance mean they are suitable for hunting. If you want to hunt, buy yourself a cheap full power (12ft/lbs+) spring rifle. You can buy them cheap (£100), they don't lack killing power and the only real running cost is that of the pellets you shoot. The crosman 1077 is not really suitable for hunting anything, since the lack of power does not ensure a clean kill 100% of the time (shooter error taken into account). Using this rifle for hunting is inhumane and will result in unnecessary suffering on the part of your quarry.
