Today I received this B5 1 .22 thanks Tom #tkerrigan 
took it out of the stock. cleaned barrel. cleaned up the mainspring as best I could without tearing it down. moly on both ends of spring. lubed all the moving parts. I did put 2 drops of chamber oil in the port. let it sit in the hot sun all day. Someday a full tune but fun for now.
I was only able to shoot it about 15 times at tin cans 20 yard just to test it. missing once. I have not tested fps but sure it's above 500. It is accurate little carbine, probably do to the fixed barrel. The open sights I had a hard to get a good sight picture. A compact scope or red dot hum. The trigger is heavy but breaks clean.
This is going to be one fun little rifle.
My one bitch about my sidelever guns. Most of us are right handed. Put the cocking lever on the left. It would make it easier to load while still holding the lever " I ain't trustin no anti bear trap" I've learned to load left.
