A cheap little CHINA shooter with some tuning potential and as Bill mentioned plenty of info and help here on the forum. I'm fond of the B's myself and have several in my collection. :) Ed

I'd grab it since it's new in the box, no one has tried to tune it etc. and you can start fresh with it if you like. :) Ed

I agree with Ed.... I have 3 of em, all home tuned, and they turned out to be great shooters and backyard hunters.   I'd say grab it.....
