Crosman Benjamin Trail NP .22 Cal Break-Barrel Air Rifle with CenterPoint 3-9x40 AO Scope
This first-generation Trail NP in .22 caliber pairs Crosman’s Nitro Piston gas-ram powerplant with a steel 18.5 inch barrel and a durable synthetic thumbhole stock. It features a bolt-on one-piece Picatinny/Weaver optics base secured with screws and comes equipped with a CenterPoint 3-9x40 AO scope in mounted rings. The receiver is marked 'BENJAMIN Trail NP' with a 'Nitro Piston' fore-end medallion, identifying it as the original Trail NP configuration (not NP2).

The Trail NP uses Crosman’s Nitro Piston gas-ram in a break-barrel, single-shot platform chambered in .22 caliber (5.5mm). This powerplant delivers consistent cocking and shot-to-shot performance without the spring fatigue associated with traditional coils.
The rifle is built around an 18.5 inch steel barrel and a bright satin/silver bare-steel receiver (the original black finish appears stripped/worn). The receiver carries 'BENJAMIN Trail NP' markings, and the fore-end includes a 'Nitro Piston' medallion, aligning it with the first-generation Trail NP design.
The synthetic thumbhole stock provides a stable, ergonomic hold with molded texturing on the grip and fore-end. A ventilated rubber buttpad and a 13.5 inch length of pull round out the stock configuration, aiding comfort and control.
A bolt-on one-piece Picatinny/Weaver rail simplifies optics setup. The factory configuration omits iron sights, and this rifle includes a CenterPoint 3-9x40 AO scope with a duplex reticle mounted in two-piece rings.
Controls and handling are straightforward, with a curved trigger and a single-round capacity. This example corresponds to manufacturer part number BT9M22SNP.
