If interested, you might scroll through their website. A couple new vesions of note are the QB Chief PCP rifle. The new version is the Chief II, which will have a 10 round magazine. Also the QB78S model with the plastic stock and short Weaver rail underneath for a bi pod will have a 10 round magazine version called the QBII. A couple new youth break barrels, one with swapable .177 and .22 barrels. Some new break barrels with wood or synthetic stocks.
I like the idea of their break barrel kits that come with 2 barrels in .177 and .22. Some of them now come with gas pistons. Wish they could come up with a system that would mount the scope on the barrel, maybe in scout style, so you could swap barrels without having to rezero every time.
Not new, but I kind of like the Model 1070 springer that is said to be about 850 fps. From the tests I've read, Beeman tends to not play fast and loose with the velocities like so many airgun companies.

The breeches on the "Commander" and "Chief II" appear very similar to the "Gauntlet" but with a bit shorter forward section. And the breeches raise the barrel compared to the original "Chief".

I've got a few Beemans, an RS2, a Mach 12.5 (takes a couple seconds for my eyes to re-focus after shooting it) and the over and under double barrel with the .177 and .22 barrels that shoot individually. With a mil dot scope it works good. They're all keepers. Got a 2078 thumb hole co2 also.
Jon, you mentioned an RS2 model with barrel scope mounts. I already got that model. But I had to make it myself. Used barrel accessory mounts slid up to the barrel blocks and one weaver scope ring each with double screws on the bottom and top in front of the scope turrets.
As long as the receiver is scout scopes want work, eye relief isn't long enough. I got a couple of BSA 2-7x32 pistol scopes to get a clear sight picture but still have to have it set at 6x. Works good, holds zero when I change barrels.
To make it work I had to cut the front of the stock off just forward of the side stock screws so the scopes would clear when cocking and cut three inches off the back (including the recoil pad) for eye relief. Put a Limbsaver slip over recoil pad on it. Sanded the stock and spray it with P/U bed liner and used a couple of B3 side sling mounts to put a AK/SKS canvas sling on it with the leather tabs on the ends.
I also bought an old Silver Kodiak at a pawn shop just for the barrels, gave the rest of it to a bud who needed the trigger. The silver barrels were a hair lose so I slid rubber breach seals over the skinny ends of the barrels, tightened right up. On them I mounted flip up M16 like front sights. At the front of the 11mm scope grooves I mounted a M16 type flip up rear sight. When I change those barrels I have to move the rear sight 5 clicks right for the .22. Might bend that one to get it closer. Behind the rear sight I have a short 11mm to weaver adapter encase I want to use a regular scope with the silver barrels.
Got a two piece bipod that'll fit on the side of all the accessory mounts. It all fits in one big soft case. Fun stuff. My Frankenstein gun.

That new Commander looks interesting. I would like to see an exploded view of it. I saw a guy on eBay offering these at. $249.
Anyone have one ?

If looking at the dual caliber, I would look at how the barrel attaches. Have a dual cal Beeman that uses 1 Allen screw to secure the barrel. Not great.
