Hay Jayson,

A B-3 is an underliever, the one that you have shown is a break barrel. I don't know that model, but I'm sure the other guys will tell you.

That might be a B1. If it is, it is a very simple rifle. Has a direct trigger. Lube tuned one not long ago, shot in the mid 500's afterwards. It did not have a scope rail, only the open sights. This would be a newer model so what I have said might not apply.   FN
Just checked out the web page. Heck it is $12.40 to ship it.....

B1 alright, good project gun also and for that price:). Ed

...and I have to disagree on its being a "good project gun". They are not self-destructive as a B2 can be, but they are not designed nor made well and certainly are NOT a "Diamond in the rough".

From all accounts, a $20 B3 from cumminstools.com is a far better bet.

It looks like a B1-1 "youth rifle",,I had one, that just recently bit the dust after 28 years of faithful service,I dont know how many thousands of rounds went through that barrel, but it was as accurate as the day it was bought,(and it could of been repaired,,,but I wanted a new one), all in all, it was a very good gun,'took down countless numbers of squirrels/starlings/crows over the years, and in my opinion just as powerful as the "Daisy '953", and "Gamo Recon" I now own.,,only draw-back is no safety,,anyway's,,jus' my cent and a half,,Andy.
