It looks like one of those $59 made in China toys.

Not a toy. Would be some variant of the B-3 originally know as the Cumming Truck Tool Sale rifle. Purchased several over the years, each different ( they have a break barrel also) the last one was $19.95 w/sleeve of "pellets". Purchased it mostly as I wanted the dovetail mount adjustable rear site and @20.00 the site was a deal.

Good clean fun .177 that never misses a tin can unless you use the factory pellets each of which patterns 3-5" at 10 yards- each pellet blasting into bits from the shear power or low QC? You can shave a good bit of wood off for fire starting and still have a usable unit and is certainly suited for home defense if held in the Louisville hold.

They are great for $20.00 nib, at $40 "maybe?" ( it is all wood and metal) .

They really are built to last and DO come in handy

Do you eat lug nuts very often? With carrots....seriously??? 

Why not put the gun together and shoot that chicken in the first picture...

They also work well as trot-line weights. My brother bought one when they first came out (20 years ago?) for $14.95, and I had to refrain from laughing when he showed it to me. After a few dozen pellets we chronographed it to find 125 FPS extreme spreads, and standard deviations actually less than triple digits (slightly).

I had one. Same deal as John about 15 years ago. The cocking arm bracket broke free and the end cap cracked so it lives under the stairs in the basement.

Thanks to everyone for the input! The rifle belonged to my late uncle. I fired some pellets and BBs through it tonight. Seems fairly accurate and the mechanism is solid. Again, many thanks!!

I got a B3-2 in .22 last year. (Amazon) Been all through it,(didn't have to do anything) and it is a good shooter.

Just came in from mounting a 4x Walther on it. Tearing up the small Bush's Bean can's from about 15 goodly paces. Blast through both sides.

Going to be going for greater distance soon. It's wood,and steel, and that's a big plus
