The world leader in airguns is an American-based company headquartered in western New York: Crosman Corporation. If you haven’t looked at airguns lately, what they’re doing will blow your minds!

The pistols are the Crosman GI Model 1911BB, a CO2 operated BB pistol with realistic blowback. It has a 20-shot magazine and can shoot BBs up to 450 feet per second.

For the JKSKINZ mounts we went with their MTR77NP. If you had a break action airgun as a kid, this gun is right up your alley. It’s styled after an M14 complete with foregrip. When you break it open and pull the muzzle down, there’s an opening in the top of the foregrip for inserting the pellet into the breech. Close it up and go shooting. And this gun has Crosman’s Nitro Piston powerplant which is a gas piston that replaces the coiled steel spring, making it quieter and more accurate.

In the door mounts are Benjamin Armada precharged pneumatic rifles. The rail may look familiar – Crosman partnered with Magpul to incorporate the M-LOK accessory rail on this gun plus it will accept any AR furniture. Benjamin is Crosman’s high end brand and this is a $1,000 .22 caliber rifle that is fully suppressed from the factory, has a 10-shot magazine and is pressurized to 3,000 PSI for shooting. It will get over 30 shots from a fill. This is the Magpul Edition and includes MOE grip and stock plus a 4-16×56 mm scope and bipod.

For the Rackbone mount we opted for the Benjamin Bulldog. This is a .357 caliber that shoots a 145 grain bullet designed by Nosler for hunting deer and hogs!

All these are available now and you can learn more at Crosman Dot Com.
