Beeman $100 beeman c1....

Just scored one in .22 in beautiful condition, including the sights....even the front sight hood. Haven't seen one for sale in a while, but i thought i remember these rifles going for mich more. Some guy has one on ebay gor $1k but i think thats absolutely ridiculous....how did I do?
I think that’s a bargain! Best to research it as Bemans have lots of variations.
 
Zrman, a Franklin for a c1 is a great fine and would exspect the c1 in .177 cal to fetch $280 and a bit more for the .22 cal. But I'm a bit confused with your first two posts. You mention purchasing the c1 in .22 cal but then asked if 729 fps is good for 8.44 grain pellet. The 8.44 grain JSB pellet is a 1.77 cal pellet. So is your see c1 purchase a .22 cal or .177 cal rifle. The .177 c1 come up for sale now and then but I don't see the .22 come up for sale but once in 10 - 15 year span. If in fact it's a .22 cal c1 then the deal you found is better than great (in my view)!

Cheers

On eBay C1 go for $200-250 in good сondition. This seller has been selling C1 for $1000 for many years-a fool is rich in thoughts.

Sorry for the confusion....it is firing jsb 14.35's at 729 fps it is confirmed a .22
 
Was just out plinking cans at 35yrds with my .177 c1 today. Such a handy carbine, put a Williams on mine but still have original rear sight. That's a steal at $100!
