Hello all,
Years ago I bought an old air rifle from an elderly man. It says ARROW B75-1/ Made in China. It is wood and steel. It has a rear adjustable range sight with a slider and markings that run from 10 - 30. This rifle has NO place for a scope. Does anyone know ANYTHING like price, value, fps, age, or ANYTHING, because I can find absolutly NOTHING on the internet. Any and all info will be appreciated. I can say it's accurate but that's ALL I know. Period. Help.
Thanks, :0

Hello all, I'm very new to forums so please forgive, I posted a day before with the wrong info (B75-1 = WRONG)
Years ago I bought an old air rifle from an elderly man. It says ARROW/Made in China/ Art. No. 75B-1. It is wood and steel. The brand stamp is a circle with an arrow halfing the circle horizontally. The top of the circle has Chinese (I guess) writing and the bottom of the circle has "ARROW". It has a rear adjustable range sight with a slider and markings that run from 10 - 30. This rifle has NO place for a scope. Does anyone know ANYTHING like price, value, fps, age, or ANYTHING, because I can find absolutly NOTHING on the internet. Any and all info will be appreciated. I can say it's accurate but that's ALL I know. Period. Help!!!
I have some pictures I am going to attempt to post on here. If you don't see pictures, I didn't figure it out, but if you tell me how I can. But maybe I'll get it right.
Thank you

SORRY. I had the numbers in the wrong order, it's 75B-1. Please look at the new thread I posted, it has pictures. Thank you!

I have one exactly like it...I bought mine for around 40 bucks from a gun shop up in Ct while I was on recruiting duty in Manchester Ct.. It has wacked several squirrels and few Blue birds from 15-20 yds..And has chased down the odd roaming dog... I crono'd it christmas day and was surprised that it was cooking along at around 350 if my memory serves me.. Untuned, 24 yrs old...
Hope this helps..

South summit still sells a version of them it's now a B2-245 or on a 22 B2-255 about 30 bucks I had one of each they shot very good for a cheap gun and when refinished they looked very nice the reason I think they are the same is the lock on the barrel you have to push to release the barrel for loading mine was the same but newer. howie

I tuned one once for a friend, it was a B2 with the barrel release lever to cock. It has a direct sear. It did shoot well after the tune. When I received it it was somewhat rusted and dirty. I polished the stock and refinished the workings with bluing. The friend did not think it was his rifle when he picked it up.. I remember the stock being kind of lean like that... Frank

Hey Thanks. So I see, it's a cheap little something, but accurate. Someone gave a fps of around 650. I thought it was pretty strong, guess that shows what I know. So I've been looking at getting the benjamin super streak, wow that will be quite the upgrade. Again thanks!
-
Wow this gun is cheap! Its accurate though. Planning to get a Benjamin super streak. Thanks for the info. I wonder why the ARROW name is nowhere to be found on the net? Anyhoo, Thanks

Thanks!
