| It's a QB78 with an adapter. Go for the Deluxe version. It's a lot better then the standard version, but it still leaves all tuning options open. |

I have 5 qb-79 and 3 78 for what it's worth i would stick with the 79 .the first thing i would do is reseal the gun because all the seal in it will fail sooner than later .they can easily be tune for 700 fps and still have a reasonable shot count .

I can confirm this. 22 Fpe with .22. If done correctly with the right adapters.
You'd have to make a nice stock for it though. |

The thoughts that I'ld like to share are that, with shipping, I
noticed that it was about one sixth the price of a new Condor.
Therefor I submit and would recommend depositing it in a
bank account and building on it until it's Condor time. You asked
for my thoughts and I would not want to do without one, so
there you have it. |

BAM B-50's. They're not rare and dead-cheap.
A good tuning platform. I've seen em in all kinds of calibres. |
