Sorry for the people loosing their employment but for the brand I only had bad experience.
Crosman closing down...
- Thread starter Caliber 22
- Start date
I was hoping for the opposite, but I guess we will see how it all shakes out. Sure doesn't sound good.

Hyperbole :|
Don't give this guy views....I despise these 'influencers'...
Businesses evolve, merge, get bought out, go bankrupt, and sometimes all of the above.
It is too early to conspire what the roadmap ahead is for the company. Could be bad, could be worse, could be for the best...
Crosman simply went from being owned by Velocity outdoors, to being owned by another company. Why would a company buy them out and just cease all production of cphp's? Maybe they will maybe they won't...and frankly their quality is so in the drain imo, that the only way is up unless they are discontinued, to which I would say, it is their business decision to do so...deal with it.

It's all about the cheaper better product..
( Cheaper for them to make and better profit for the shareholders)

Isn't that ALL businesses, catering to shareholders? 90% of what I buy in the store that is packaged has changed in quality and quantity at a higher cost over the years...To all the guys who think Crosman (or their holding company) is lone actor here, scry some more.

Is it another incident of NYS driving a "gun" company out of the state? Gov Hochel is driven by the down state.

Could be who knows ? I think a company of course has to either produce products or services that people want to spend their money on. Doesn’t seem like they have done this for awhile now. Their stuff has been pretty crappy.

This is sad.
I've had a long, happy relationship with Crosman. Mostly with what they had to offer during the fifties, sixties and seventies.
I wish their former employees the best of luck.
Cheers,

Remember when Crosman bought out Sheridan and Benjamin? Those products endured. Daisy has been in operation for a long time, I’m sure they know what they are doing.
It is unfortunate for the folks in NY who will be losing their jobs, maybe some will relocate to Arkansas.

I'm far too young to remember but I will be a Benjamin boy for life!
And heck, my first bb gun was a daisy pumper, lol, so, things come full circle I guess.

Yep!
I figure my 1701P just tripled in value.
Guess I should'a bought that truck-load of 'em at the last Texas airgun show.
FWIW, in my opinion they are one of the most widely under-appreciated air pistol GEMS.
