Our Crosman T4 BB/ Pellet pistol arrived and it’s had its first night looking for rats in the woods. It did a real fine job, but there are a few things you should know about the pistol before you order it.
The first question was, “Can a person who is far-sighted (one with “mature eyes”) use the Crosman Red Dot Sight? The answer is “Yes!”, the red dot superimposes over the image in the sight and you do not have to focus close up.
But, I will say that a Red Dot Sight works best if you learned to shoot with both eyes open as I did in the military. The one-eyed squinting shooter will take a long time to acquire the target through this site, but with two eyes it’s easy. For target shooting and plinking, the Red Dot Sight that comes with the Crosman T4 Tactical is probably better than a laser site and it beats the daylights out of open sights.
Unfortunately, this gun has a strong trigger pull. But, all of the BB pistols I’ve tried recently have strong trigger pulls. Think of it as training for real double-action shooting.
I was curious about the flat magazine system for BBs and pellets that Crosman built into the T4, but it’s very smooth. This magazine system sure beats trying to feed the BBs down a little hole and it gives you automatic feed of pellets – not one at a time. Push down on a lever and the received snaps open. Dump out the old mag, drop in a new one, snap back the slide, and you’ve got 8 rounds ready to go. Loading a magazine takes seconds, but you’d be smart to buy a spare 3-pack of magazines.
The Crosman Tactical Flashlight is a flamethrower for its size. You can use it mounted or handheld and it comes with a pressure pad actuator so you can choose to only turn it on for short intervals. I love good flashlights.
This kit, gun+sight+light, provides a lot of value. Highly recommended for punching holes in paper targets, aluminum cans, or rats.
