Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the Crosman Remington 1875 CO2 Dual Ammo Revolver is very good. it its single action only as is expected from a revolver of this era. There is almost zero take up and creep and the weight is light but not super light so as to not accidentally release the trigger before you intend to. I would not want to change this trigger at all.

Accuracy: Starting with the velocity, or power for the Crosman Remington 1875 CO2 Dual Ammo Revolver, we measured using our Chronograph using a brand new 12 gram CO2 and we shot three rounds of BB’s and four rounds of pellets and averaged them out. Here are our BB Chronograph results in FPS: 423, 407, 398 (409 average). Here are my pellet Chronograph results in FPS: 300, 274, 270, 271 (279 average). We were using standard lead pellets which should be right around 7 grain while my 4.5mm Steel BB’s were around 5 grain. Temperature was average room temperature We would say. For our Accuracy test we shot a full 6 round magazine of each ammo type or at least we tried to, but for some reason we were missing a round in our pellet test so we only shot five rounds for that one. For BB’s all shots were fairly well centered on the target but they did spread out to about 2.5 inches. Pellets dropped a bit perhaps as they were moving a lot slower? Our pellet result was about the same at around 2.5 inches of spread between all 5 shots. The spread with the pellets was wider compared to the spread of the BB’s which was more vertical.

Build Quality: Build quality for the Crosman Remington 1875 CO2 Dual Ammo Revolver is excellent. It is hard to find any plastic on this product as it seems to be entirely made out of metal other than the grips. it weighs in at 2.3 pounds so it feel very solid in the hadn't and the nickel chrome finish looks really good with the bone colored grips. Just expect to do a lot of wiping down if you do not like finger prints on your guns. All the mechanical parts feel tight and work well.

Realism: The new generation shell loading revolvers all look and festoon super realistic with their removable shells and very realistic working parts. It actually feels like you are working with the real deal as you need to load up shells manually and insert them in the gun one by one just like a 6 shooter back in the day. One little detail mistake all of these shell loading six shooters seem to make, is that the shells are most closely similar in size to a .357 or .38 caliber where as real steel versions would be chambered more in a .44 or .45 caliber shell so the shells are not true to scale but this is a very minor point.

Pros:

• Almost all metal build with a solid 2.3 pound weight.
• A decent looking replica of a Remington 1875 Revolver.
• Single action only trigger is short and light and well suited to careful shot placement shooting.
• 450 claimed fps is about perfect for plinking at ranges up 30-40 feet.
• Have the choice of shooting either 4.5mm Steel BB’s or .177 caliber pellets.
• Comes with 6 shells for 4.5mm BB’s and 6 shells for .177 caliber pellets.
• Safety is well hidden just in front of the trigger so easy to get to.
• Has a recessed barrel for added realism.
• CO2 Allen key is built into grip so always have it on hadn’t and will not lose it.
• Chrome finishes with bone style grips looks really good.
• White markings don’t stand out too much on the chrome finish.

Cons:

• Not a big fan of the clamshell packaging  as I feel it cheapens the product and initial unboxing joy.
• Barrel is not rifled for the pellets.
• Sight are non-adjustable but fairly normal for an inexpensive plinker.

Comments: The Crosman Remington 1875 CO2 Dual Ammo Revolver is a well rounded shell loading revolver and for me checks a lot of the boxes and would be a good choice if you are looking for a single action only revolver of this era. It gives you the option of shooting either 4.5mm Steel BB’s or .177 caliber Pellets and you even get 12 shells (6 of each). The nickel finish with the bone grips looks really good and we like the slightly longer barrel which does help add to the beefy 2.3 pound feel in the hand of this CO2 Revolver. We wish it came in nicer looking packaging but this won’t matter once you take it out and start shooting.
