Hi Jay (homey, Cincinnati here), Bentog, and BBW,
In the links I included, where the RS2 has a muzzle brake, that is not a mod. I'm suspecting (because I thought I read it somewhere) that the rifles that come with cases are made in Europe. My rifle says RS2 on the action, but I think when Beeman sold out to S/S Industries some rifle manufacturing must have been transfered to China. Nothing wrong with that, but I believe it was a step down for economic reasons. The ones sold at Wallyworld are not the same one sold at Pyramid Air. I guess I can call and check that out with them. Ahab cannot let the whale go!
