dayglowfrog 56 Posted May 31, 2016 Report Share Posted May 31, 2016 Feel this strange urge to get a b2 . I think its because I missed out on the totally bottom end of the market . My first rifle is a now heavily modded stoeger x20s closely followed by 900x both .22 . Then a hw99 .177 and a Hassan 55 .177 both tuned. Then a 1980 hw80 .22 . Then a tx hc and a 97 both .177 my tx is the only untuned rifle I have. So why do I feel the need to get a b2 ? Think it might be because I am working near a shop that sells them for £ 38 and I fancy a new challenge or maybe my standards have dropped and since it could be a while before I can get a pro sport . I will handle one this week to see if its a passing perversion . Quote Link to post
Rez 4,961 Posted May 31, 2016 Report Share Posted May 31, 2016 Do it. Had a B2 as my first air rifle. Starling basher at best. Recoils erratically and smells of grease, awful wood, wank blacking, but Id love to have that old rifle back 30 quid and posted it was back then. 2 Quote Link to post
jonnie bravo 572 Posted May 31, 2016 Report Share Posted May 31, 2016 My mate has one. It's a fantastic gun for plinking, great for standing shots as it's very muzzle heavy and weighs about 2kg. Super light cocking effort with the super long barrel, and about 20kg trigger pull weight. Quiet too! Quote Link to post

secretagentmole 1,701 Posted June 1, 2016 Report Share Posted June 1, 2016 A B2 was my first rifle and it was the rifle I have seen the most impressive trick shot ever done with. Forget Zini and Davey, try aiming at a target, and shooting yourself up the backside with it! A full 4 ricochet run round the garden to the right cheek. My wife was not so impressed as it was she who pulled the shot off! When I had picked myself up off the floor after crying tears of laughter concern, we checked and there was just a nasty bruise. I have never seen such a fantastic shot in my life. We soon got a couple of 60S rifles after that! 1 Quote Link to post
Skot Ruthless Teale 1,701 Posted June 1, 2016 Report Share Posted June 1, 2016 I shot myself right between the eyes with my .22 b2! Shooting at a carlsberg glass bottle at abut 15 yards to see if itwould smash.goodjob the 'rifle' was only probably putting out 6-8 ftlb lol It left a mark for about 10 mins and we were all pissing ourselfs Quote Link to post
dayglowfrog 56 Posted June 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2016 Don't get all panick stricken but they didn't have any b2 s in stock and have been waiting for a long time. Not sure if its a national shortage yet but just thought I should warn you. On the plus side it stopped me buying one and I was good only buying 3 tins of pellets. Quote Link to post
