Guys I had a B-20 before and traded it for a B-21. Yeah you guess it, bad trade. I ran into another B-20. Quality on this one wasnt as good as my last. Inside piston on the spring seat, the surface was not even and caused OEM spring breakage. I ordred a JM tophat but its not here yet. I fabricated a washer to use in there for now.
The B-4 spring is 2-3 inches shorter than OEM, but other than that, Identical. First on the guide well. What do you know, it hits 800 fps with 7.9. smooth.
Its not pictured but I added a MB, home made. Its not like the ones you usually see. Its rubber rings and aluminum tube with a cap. But the thing is, the rubber on the barrel, by itself reduces the report a bit. its just noise or vibration dampening. Then if I slide it forward a little, the sound is WAY down. More sound taming than any all steel MB I have ever used.
Contrary to many posts Ive read. The B-20 action accepts the R-9 stock quite well. It may be an older R9 stock that I am using which fits better than new but I am not sure. Perfect drop in fit.
I couldnt be happier. Had the r9 stock lying around with no place to go. This B20 comes along and I dont have much hopes for it but it turned out really nce.
Shoots like a dream. It can do well under 1 inch at 25 yards. In a five shot group, I get about three right in the center and the others fly because I dont follow through or I jerk the trigger.
Trigger was nice but polish and moly never hurts. I can tell its a bit smoother after that.
Ordred JM kit just for the top hat really. I dont know if I want to use his spring because I just want a shorter one for med-high power. 800 is plenty for my needs from this gun.
Tell me what you think!
