    Beeman 1982 Beeman Garage score-Yay or Nay? UPDATE...

    My no-safety R7 is my favorite rifle. It is almost always in the truck waiting for a good opportunity to shoot.

    177 vs 22 cal for springers

    I own four Beeman R1’s. One in .177 tuned to 12 ft/lbs, one in .177 full power, one in .20, and one in .22. The 12 ft/lb gun is quieter, but that is to be expected. However, given the mass of the moving parts the parts oscillate after the shot. There is no twang, you can actually feel the spring...

    HW30 Galling

    I have one HW30 and three R7's. One of them has this issue and a previous owner tried to repair it with what appears to be an epoxy compound. It's not going to cut the gun in half... I have never seen one of them gall themselves to failure. It should be fine after you have clearance for the...

    Pro Sport- It’s beauty is more than skin deep.

    I do like my ProSport. I am on my second as the first had to go back to Pyramid because the barrel shroud started moving. The first was awesome out of the box. The replacement was dry an had a lot of buzz. Within a week of getting it, I ordered a Vortek kit and installed it. The engineering is...

    My HW80 .25 is hitting like my HW30 .22

    That’s why I sold my 25 cal R1 barrel. Even out of a healthy gun, the velocities you get make for a very loopy trajectory. It makes it near impossible to estimate hold-over when the distance changes.

    I need to be banned.

    I’m having that same problem!

    Strange ad on Fleabay - Beeman R1 “new”

    I saw that one. He has instructions in his ad to contact him before bidding and he would make you a better price. Sounded like some kind of scam to me. I looked at his other items and they have the same kind of instructions. On top of that, the scope is nothing special and has zero value in my...

    HW35 rebuild ?

    Buy the HW35 kit and cut a coil off and polish to reduce power.

    Merry Christmas

    Merry Christmas from southwest Louisiana. While waiting on Christmas dinner, I set up a different scope on my Santa Rosa R1 .177 and got it sighted in at 25 yards with some JSB Hades.

    Questions on the air arms tx200 mk3

    I just went and checked my ProSport, which I shot earlier today. It does have some lateral play in it. I didn't realize that until you mentioned it. So then I started checking Beeman triggers in the house. I have ten. They all have about the same amount of play. It is definitely something I...

    Tuning Break In New Beeman R9 - How and Why?

    Just shoot it and have fun, you will probably notice that it gets smoother over time, but it should be accurate out of the box. And heavy pellets will just increase dieseling because the pressures will be higher in the compression chamber, but you will just shoot through any residual oil in the...

    Beeman R1

    In very good shape, light handling marks on stock and no freckling on metal, I would say around $500. I would expect to get the original rear sight, but being that you have a Beeman peep on it, that would help the price a bit. But that’s just my opinion on it, but I’m always shopping used Beeman...

    What Scope for Beeman R7

    I will add a vote for the Hawke 2-7 x 32. I have three of them now and they are the perfect size for the R7.

    If you get the .22 reactive tannerite, it will set it off. I have done it with a .20 R1 shooting about 800 at the muzzle at a range of about 50 yards.

    Beeman

    The R1 through R11 were always made by Weihrauch. That has never changed. There is a line of Chinese guns labeled Beeman, it this in no way involves the R1 through R11 including the current R7 and R9.

    Beeman R1 find

    I own four R1's, and although they are a bit heavy, they may be my favorite air rifle. It might be surpassed by my R7's depending on my mood as DualMagMike suggested. They are hard to shoot freehand due to the weight, but it can be done and I find it enjoyable. If I could only have one gun, it...
