The Crosman Recruit is a pellet rifle not a pellet gun. If you want to see how the rifle is assembled then see the link below for the diagram.
The rifle will fire without a pellet, but over time it will ruin the air chamber and air piston inside the chamber. When you pull the trigger the air piston slides forward inside the air chamber compressing the air behind the pellet. At the last moment it actually slows down as the pressure builds and fires the pellet. Without a pellet in the loading port the piston has no resistance and just slams against the stop. This will eventually ruin the rifle.

It's a Crosman 764sb air rifle.
After doing some research I discovered some unusual facts about the Benjamin Elite air rifle. Apparently it is made specifically for Dicks Sporting goods by Crosman air gun company (Crosman owns Benjamin and Sheridan). In truth It is a Benjamin Superstreak with a nitro piston powerplant instead of the original spring power plant. I own a Superstreak. First of all it is a powerful rifle. The Super streak came out in 2007 in a .177 and a .22 Caliber rifle but very quickly the .177 went out of production and the .22 Caliber ceased a few years later. Now it appears on the Dicks sporting goods page with a Nitro piston power plant. Like I said it is a huge rifle and I would not recommend it for a small person. I'm 6' tall and I find it to be a heavy rifle. It is a beautiful rifle (Made in China). Is it a good rifle, Yes!----- Is it an Excellent rifle?,--- well after lugging it around, I find I like a slightly lighter rifle to shoot with.The Dicks add calls it an Airsoft rifle. IT IS NOT A AIRSOFT RIFLE it is a pellet rifle, a very deadly pellet rifle.

It would help if you stated the model number. Crosman made several pellet rifles for Sears. You need to provide more information.
Because of the small design of a BB gun it is not possible to change the air system. However if it's a pellet springer rifle, not a BB rifle, then in some cases it is possible to change it with a Nitro piston system. But this should be done by a professional air gun service. A nitro system replaces the spring piston with a gas piston tube. It usually cost around $130.
