Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the Crosman A4-P CO2 Blowback BB Rifle is single-action only, requiring the charging handle to be cocked first before firing. The trigger is short and relatively light, as expected from an AR-type trigger action. The excitement comes when switching to full auto mode, where a single pull and hold of the trigger rapidly empties the 25-round magazine. For extensive full-auto shooting, you might consider getting the Crosman High Capacity magazine.

Accuracy: Based on a test of the Crosman R1 CO2 Blowback BB Gun, which averaged 385 fps and achieved a 1-inch grouping at 30 feet in semi-auto and a 3-4-inch grouping in full auto, we can expect similar performance from the Crosman A4-P CO2 Blowback BB Gun, provided that not being able to shoulder it doesn't significantly impact accuracy.

Build Quality: The Crosman A4-P CO2 Gun is well-constructed, like the other Crosman AR series BB Guns. It weighs 5.3 pounds without accessories and feels solid. Although the top and bottom receivers are plastic, the internals and most working parts are metal, including the full metal magazine, buffer tube, charging handle, selector switch, magazine release, bolt release, trigger, and barrel.

Realism: The Crosman A4-P CO2 Blowback BB Gun offers a highly realistic AR/M4-style experience, with the ability to disassemble the top and bottom receivers like the real steel version. The blowback action provides some recoil and a true single-action trigger, along with full auto capability. Most working parts function like those of a real AR/M4, except for the forward assist, which is molded into the receiver. This is the pistol version, but it still requires the buffer tube area for the action to work.

Pros:

• Extremely realistic M4/AR 4.5mm steel BB operation, similar to other Crosman Rifles in this lineup.
• Full blowback operation with semi and full auto shooting.
• Solid weight and feel.
• Most components function like the real steel version.
• The dual CO2 metal drop-out magazine holds 25 4.5mm steel BBs and dual CO2.
• Compact and maneuverable pistol version, with the possibility of adding an AR butt stock.
• Ample rails for mounting additional accessories.
• Removable flash hider.
• Compatible with Crosman High Capacity magazine.

Cons:

• Plastic receiver, but well-made with lots of metal throughout the gun.
• No iron sights included.
• No butt stock included.

Comments:

Like other Crosman AR products, the Crosman A4-P CO2 Blowback BB Gun features an AR-compatible pistol grip and allows for flash hider customization, similar to the Crosman R1 CO2 Blowback BB Gun. All Crosman AR Full Auto CO2 BB Rifles are mechanically similar and share most parts. If you're looking for the most compact version, the Crosman A4-P CO2 Blowback BB Gun is the way to go!
