alexf Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 One of these has come up for local to me, are they any good? anything to watch out for? No real need for it but it seems cheap and local bit of an impulse buy possibly. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
secretagentmole Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. And again... No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. The B2 has it's uses admittedly, either as a club, cricket bat, wheel chock, poker (with the barrel), paper weight for very big diagrams but as an air rifle it could be bettered by a rubber band. The quality is unbelievably lousy, unless it is given to you, with cash in your hand refuse it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wharf Rat Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 You can get them for £30 brand new. They are horrible looking, horrible shooting and only about 9ft-lb if you are lucky, BUT; I do someone who actually hunts with one. I should think that there is a lot of tuning/tarting potential if you want a cheap DIY project. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. And again... No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

secretagentmole Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 (edited) You buy the thing for £30, spend £70 on a tuning kit, £50 on a new trigger, you could have had a decent SMK rifle for that sort of cash (well as decent as they get), a Hatsan, or a secondhand HW or something!

Rimfireboy Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 It's the sort of gun you should get free with a tin of pellets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let us observe the art of mierda del toro! The B2 is not an accurate weapon, it is sloppy, poorly made, they are not reliable, the trigger mechanism is not one that can be predicted for release, sometimes it is right on the bite, others nearly back at the stock, the mechanicals will not take a ball point pen spring, never mind the overpowered, horrendous effect that an Ox spring has on a good gun, let alone one made from the reject bin at the chin sung cap gun factory! The only way this gun can knock rabbits over at 50 yards is to use an air cannon and take careful aim!

nobby Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 They are a pretty pants rifle but that said they are good to learn how to tune on. I had one that I got with a bulk load of rifles and to be fair it was around the 11ft/lb mark and not bad on accuracy. The newer ones are certainly better than the older ones but to take one out the box for live quarry I would definatley say no. I ended up giving mine away at the earliest oppurtunity but I do know some people on the CAGF that love them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demonwolf444 Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 you get what you pay for, i didnt pay for mine, and i didnt get anything. "50 yards" hmm....no. I could never throw mine that far. Even if you want something to mod thats cheap get an XS78, the only smk gun ive been impressed by.
