QB-78 the next generation.......
« on: April 25, 2008, 06:04:22 AM »
Just opened a new case of QB-78's and had a big suprise, they have inproved our little rifle, gone is the hard plastic ill fitting butt plate and it is replaced by a soft rubber one thats fitted to the stock like the Deluxe model, the finish is now the same type as the Deluxe model sports and the reciever has the model etc. printed on it like the deluxe. I know you want pictures and I'll try to get some done but it's a pain in the butt as I don't know the first thing about running the camera or how to post them so if it takes a month or two don't be surprised, if you really need to see what they look like buy one.......

What is the case you got .177 or .22? Any other differences.

Mike,
I was just thumbing through an old 1997 "Guns Illustrated " and back then the QB's were around. Selling for US$195.00 and imported by Air Rifle Specialist and labelled as ARS?QB77 Deluxe. How long have you know about them?
regards,
Alan

Must be back to around 2000 maybe earlier, after the first few centuries my memory started to go..the QB-77 was the very first QB's that Tim at MAC-1 imported and hand assembled in the states, I don't have one but do have the manual that came with them.....
