The Cricket II .22 WB arrived today in great shape! 

All I have time for right now are some photos, but I'll be mounting my scope and testing ASAP!

:)

She sure is pretty!!! Very nice looking wood! How is the cocking lever?

Hi Blackpaw, thanks! Yes, it's quite a nice stock! The cocking is very smooth and has a "two-stage" feel. The side lever comes back to just shy of 90 degrees (first stage) and then you feel the force of the actual cocking mechanism and indexing of the magazine. That last part is still very smooth but it's clear that Kalibrgun designed it to take mechanical advantage of that position of the lever. It's firm, but still the cocking action can be done with one finger.

Is there a safety on there somewhere?

That is a good looking gun! Kalibr makes good stuff. I love my carbine...

Yup, it's the collar right in front of the cocking lever. I'm still scratching my head about the placement of the red mark on it though. I'll go double check this, but I swear it's backwards... the safety is OFF when the red line is hidden. Anyways, the most important thing is that the safety is NOT automatic 👍 👍

Grats! Very pretty wood on yours.

I've got the old model, and again a .25 and tuned by Charlie Frears. It's heavy, but the pistol grip and overall balance make it the easiest rifle to carry I've ever had, including the power-burners I and my Dad and friends had back in the way-old days. Superb balance and shoulder-ability(is that a thing?).

I like the forward cocking lever on yours. Let us know how you find it in action.

P.S.: I continue to love the stock design letting you carry extra magazines. I have five in total now, and am thrilled I can preload so many pellets and be ready to go without fumbling for so darn many shots -- 70 I think? -- without even worrying about carrying pellet tins or pouches or whatever.
