Sure you don't want a QB78? It's a far better rifle! Just get hold of Sniper or mrmarvin.

ya that looks like an awesome gun but im kinda on a tight budget! I thought the 2260might be a little cheaper...

QB78 is $159 plus shipping.

159.00 for a QB78.......I don't think you'll get a 2260 for anything near that, at least not new in Ontario.......

Is the QB78 considered a PAL gun because its right on 500 fps?

You might want to contact MrMarvin about the airgun you're looking for.......

Hi Crosman4life, welcome to the forum.

Yes, it's true as everyone is saying, QB78 is far better than CR2260, the QB78 is a direct replica of Crosman 160.
QB78 is NOT a PAL version gun because it's rated under 500 fps.
It's constructed with wood & metal.

CR2260, you can get one from the US and it is PAL version.
It comes with plastic breech just like the 2240.

the 2260 last time we had it at the store was 159 same price as a qb-78....i have had both guns(sold the 2260) the qb is nicer ,and also i did want one of the 2260,s back to keep iin my collection(cause i collect 22 cal guns) and asked crosman canada and
they do not have any in stock.....they use to bring in a non-pal version....and crosman no longer makes it ,
to my knowlage.
cheers!

I'd actually avoid the 2260 because the barrel is very thin and of what i've read it bends very easy, also the QB78 seems like an awesome gun, it has an awesome design, and everyone seems to like it, also the price is right, it's definatly going to be my next air rifle. HTH.
