You can't go wrong with a B2, I have an XS-B2-2A .22, and it's a great shooter, very accurate, and it's built with ordnance grade steel, and Chinese Beechwood stock, and it can be very powerful as well, that part's up to you. The one I have was bught in the US, so it hasn't been de-tuned and shoot's a consistant 550fps, add 200fps w/ a quality spring change,,All in all, I would have to say it's a good move to buy one, and w/ Eric you're getting some real integrity pricing. Cheer's, Andy.

I have to tighten the screws after every shoot, but overall a pretty decent .22

i can't speak specificlly of the b-2 (22) but i had a b2 (177) and i loved it. bought it new for 40$ and when i got it - it would shoot through a tims paper cup-seriously!!!! but i put another 50 shot downrage and it started to work fine. mine had a very long trigger pull- not crips at all, crappy wood, not really nice maching or bluing but:

it was pretty accuarte
is was fun
it always works

and heres the best part (besids the 40$)

because it was a cheap gun???
i didn't baby it or worry about lending it to a :drinkers: freind while camping sitting around a camp fire
or surprovised kids to learn about shooting (not :drinkers: )
i didn't expect to hit a dime at 100yards
it was just plain fun that i didn't have to baby at all and i still hit everything i aimed at!!!
there was not pressure with that gun to preform-just fun

so.....yes- not bad- even with all its faults
i loved that gun :mrgreen:
