My wife and I are thinning down our collection, so please check out our other listings. We do not have much left to sell before we are done.
For sale is a vintage Chinese Type-B3 underlever air rifle with beautifully patinaed metal and a very nice wooden stock. The rifle functions and the seals are good.
The Chinese military used the Type-B3 as an SKS trainer. I guess when you have a million-man army, pellets are cheaper to shoot than live ammunition.
The Pioneer brand was in production between the 1960s, and the early 2000s, but unfortunately, I do not know when this particular example was made.
Modern B3 style air rifles are still being made to this day by different companies, but they are being manufactured to modern standards. That means some of the parts that used to be made of steel to military specifications, are now being made of plastic to commercial specifications.
For example, the front sight, the rear sight, and trigger guard, are usually made of plastic these days. The example we are selling uses steel in those areas, and even goes as far as to memic SKS sights. In fact, adjusting the front sight even requires the same tool as the SKS.
Simply put, they do not make them like they used to.
