Take small game, plink or shoot targets with the Quest 1000, which sends .177 pellets screaming out the barrel at 1000 fps. With only 31.5-Pounds cocking effort, this lightweight, powerful rifle is ideal for hours of serious shooting. The hardwood stock on this spring-piston break barrel rifle has a Monte Carlo butt-stock. Details on this rifle make it obvious that Crosman put a lot of thought into the design of this handsome all-around airgun. The fiber optic front and rear (fully adjustable) sights (green front, two-dot red rear) ensure ease in acquiring your targets, even at dusk and dawn. To get the most accuracy from this rifle, mount a scope on the 11-Millimeter dovetails. Crosman made it easy by including a scope stop to ensure that your mount stays in place every time this powerhouse fires. The two-stage trigger is adjustable only for take-up (length of the first stage). Quest 1000 has fiber optic front and rear (adjustable) sights, a built-in scope stop and hardwood Monte Carlo stock.

About Crosman In 1923 in Rochester, New York, Crosman was founded as Crosman Arms Company. From its inception, Crosman's principal products were airguns and airgun ammunition. During the 1950s, new accounts included Sears Roebuck & Co., Montgomery Ward, and Western Auto, all of which sold Crosman's products under their respective brand names.
In 1966, Crosman introduced its own Crosman brand airgun, the Crosman Pumpmaster 760, which has sold more than 11 million units to date. Crosman Corporation is now an international designer, manufacturer, and marketer of Crosman pellet, BB, airsoft rifles and pistols, Copperhead ammunition, and Benjamin pellet rifles and ammunition.
With no reservation, I am impressed with the fit, finish, and performance of this rifle. At first the sights seem a little out of place on such a solid mount, but they function well and have great visibility. I have a couple of 22 rimfire rifles with light gage metal sights that would be much less resilient than these plastic sights if bumped. Fresh out of the box I held my first 20 rounds to just under a 3" group at 50 feet, standing, off hand. Being unpracticed by several years, I was very pleased with its / my performance. As to power, it seems more than adequate. The 7.9 grain pellets were blowing through a ¾" pine board at 50 feet as if it were a sheet paper. As for adding a scope, I would be hesitant because of the break barrel action. If the barrel doesn't seat perfectly after cocking, the sight angle would be greatly compromised. I guess there is a reason the open sights are mounted on the barrel proper. Also, based on the limited effective range of the low mass projectiles,...Read more

I haven't mount the the scope yet, but the rifle itself lives up to it's description. I wanted something with power and this one knocks around my 5.5"x5.5" pellet trap around at 25'. I mentioned I haven't mount the included scope yet, because I've been enjoying the fiberoptic rear(florescent pink) and front (florescent green) sights. Mine came with 250 ct. hollowpoint pellets, which sort of disintegrated to powder when it hits the back of the pellet trap because of the 1000 fps. Heavier pellets will slow it down some (more than the ave. 7.9 gr. .177.) Has a slight kick to it. This combo comes with a hard case, which is a plus if you're a collector like me who likes to have all of his/her guns in it's own case. DEFINITELY NOT FOR A YOUNGSTER PLINKING IN A BACKYARD. mgso

This rifle is very well made. wood and metal is what it consists of. the power is excellent and the accuracy is as good as I can aim. I loaded the gun with gamo pellets which increase the velocity By 25 percent and it went through an empty plastic bottle as if it were paper. with nothing in the plastic bottle, I was surprised that the bottle didn't fly back. Instead there was a clean hole straight through both sides of the bottle and it was still standing up. even without the gamo pellets, this gun is still very deadly. Lets just say this thing is not a toy and is far from it.
