Crosman Diamondback 5.5mm (.22cal) Pellet Rifle – CDH22TDSS-S Since 1923, Crosman Rifle Company has set the gold standard for airguns and accessories. Today, the Diamondback .22 break‐barrel pellet rifle (Model CDH22TDSS-S) showcases the brand’s dedication to power, precision and performance. Whether you’re plinking cans in the backyard, honing your marksmanship at the range or managing small game, this rifle delivers the consistency and confidence you demand. At the heart of the Diamondback lies Nitro Piston Elite technology—a robust gas-spring system engineered to replace traditional mainsprings. This cutting-edge powerplant reduces recoil by up to 70 % and offers a lighter, smoother cocking effort. The result? Faster follow-up shots, minimal muzzle jump and whisper-quiet operation that keeps you focused on the target, not the noise. Built to endure every environment, its all-weather synthetic thumbhole stock resists moisture, temperature swings and rough handling. Paired with a rifled steel barrel featuring QuietFire sound-suppression technology, it produces tight shot groups and exceptional long-range stability while muffling report so you can shoot longer and more discreetly. Ergonomics and adjustability are in perfect harmony—an adjustable two-stage “Clean Break” trigger lets you dial in a crisp, predictable pull. Flip-up sights offer instant on-target acquisition, while a 3⁄8″ dovetail rail invites you to mount your favorite scope or red-dot optic. From the shark-fin front sight to the fully adjustable rear notch, sighting-in is intuitive and rock solid. Capable of launching alloy pellets up to 1100 fps (and lead pellets to 950 fps), the Diamondback fuses raw power with pinpoint accuracy. Weighing in at a balanced 8.5 lbs, it feels substantial without being cumbersome, and its bevelled pistol grip naturally aligns your hand for steady, fatigue-free shooting. An easy-to-reach safety lever ensures peace of mind for shooters of all skill levels. Backed by Crosman’s long-standing reputation and supported by a network of over 300 dedicated staff, the Diamondback is more than a rifle—it’s a commitment to excellence. With every shot, you’ll feel the difference that a century of innovation makes.
