Highest quality chinese rifle?

Just wondering what the highest build quality china guns are, my B21 is VERY well made but i'm betting the B40 or pcp, the B-50 is about as good as they come. For all you guys who have owned the upper end china guns, which one strikes you as having the best design or build quality? J

Actually the B30 was a higher quality than the B21 but is no longer made, the B 40 is a fine under lever while the B21 and B30 are side levers and the B 26 ( RWS 320) are break barrels all are fine shooting rifles and I can't say as far as PCP's go since I have only had one a custom PCP built on a QB79 action with a lot of mods making it a one of a kind Howie 1a

So you feel that all the upper end Bam rifles are of equal quality, build materials, wood, barrels, accuracy etc? Thanks for posting howie, i know you have seen all these guns..

I got the BAM-51 Jeff an would say the fit an finish are Very Nice on it, deep bluing an done well, stock is decent(straight grained) but has more sharp edge's than I care for(plan on refinishing it myself or dropping it off to David), the trigger is a breeze to adjust, the casting on the brass trigger/cocking bolt did need some work(30 minute's with stone's an polish now it SHINE's), but once some TLC is applied the acc. will make you forget the small thing's. Have only shot other "upper" end Bam's but I'd say they all looked to be close to this one over all.

I would vote for the BAM built guns. Three B-26's and I had a B-40. All nice for the money. The B-26-2 is the most accurate in .22 for me. I moved the B-40 to a new owner only because it was too heavy for my taste.

I do think the B40 is nicely finished compared to the other guns. I have an RWS320 that comes pretty close. Maybe RWS specified a nicer finish on their order, these being B20's. While I haven't handled one, the Chinese copy of the FWB target rifle and pistol are probably the highest.

Well i'm crushed now to hear that Bam is no longer exporting, they definitely had the unique designs in their favor. I'll be regretting not buying one of each of them while i had the chance. J

Bam has got some kind deal goin on with Crosman and Stoger and a few others producing their lines of AG's so I'd expect some kinda revamped B40 so show up sooner or later, remember the post not long ago about Crosman asking about an underlever! don't be suprised!

Hello,
I owned a B-26 a while back. It was as good as a few cheaper-end British guns I have owned but my BAM-40 is pretty nice and well put together and certainly worth the money I paid for it.
regards,
Alan

From all the Chinese rifles the B40 (BMK40 in my case) is very good overall, the Xisico XS B28 too but that one has been tuned by MM so haven't had that one apart but it's well finished and smooth as well.
