    I admire your talents. The true definition of an eccentric Englishman, well done sir!

    (O.K. I really think you are as mad as a hatter, but hell if it floats your boat go for it but you do know you are going to cop some flack for this! )

    interesting stock.....scorch marks from a blowgun?? .......seriuosly tho a gun thats loved and cared for is a good gun IMO.

    power output is also interesting...as a certain person from a well known mag has it that its just over 11 ft/lbs....not nearly as bad as you have found.....i wonder if they come from the factory between 6ft/lbs and 11.....oh dear..

    Ora8i did some work on one of these rifles, it was quite nice to shoot when he'd finished it, dare I say that it was better than some "classic" 60's rifles that I have shot.

    can't imagine how you could get 11ftlb from one of these ,unless you fired the hole thing out of a cannon

    Nice job on the B3 mate, I think with some of us its the taking of something basic and cheap and transforming it into something better (without wasting a load of money in the process) and perhaps learning a bit about airguns in the process?

    I've always wondered whats inside a B2, other than a broken spring in many cases!, I always have liked to take things apart to see how they work! he he.

    Anyone see the customised B2 with aluminium stock etc in the airgun magazine, it looks awesome, but many will say why bother with a B2.

    Fair play to ya though Mr Git! ive not got the skills to take a rifle apart and improve em,be great if i could but iam too scared to mess a good rifle up.I guess thats were the B2 comes into it,fine to learn on and teach yourself perhaps.

    i took it up to my club and shot 1.1/4 inch groups at 25 yards .
    i think it could do better but i need to practice more with the spring recoil again ,as i got lazy with the co2 rifle ..
    have put a better scope on now ,
    2 tins of pellets so far ...
