Title: Picked up a Beeman R7.......
Post by: jeeperatt1 on May 01, 2012, 11:45:04 PM
San Rafael model......got it from my pawn shop guy in a combo buy with a Marlin 39A!  Question now is do I keep it or make some money on it??  Pawn guy had no clue what he had.  Gotta love that.

It's in GREAT shape with a terrific stock and great looking metal.  Only thing it's missing is the rear sight.  Has the front sight with hood etc.  Came with a Beeman peep sight as well!

I love the feel and look of it but I'm just not sure I will shoot it enough; I've kinda gravitated towards .22's........

I'm torn!

If you decide to make some money on it, keep me in mind. :)

I picked up one recently .177 and will never part with it. Sweet shooting, accurate,easy to hold, and can shoot it all day. It just may be a favorite, if you keep shooting it..PeashooterJoe

You have a win/win situation either way.

I'll never part with my R7s.

 The R7 defines both 'user-friendly' and 'keeper' in airgunning. Just shoot it and fall in love with the hobby all over again.

 Also they're the hands-down best tool for introducing people to airguns or training young 'uns.

 Put a couple of tins of pellets thru it and you'll never turn loose of it like the rest of us.

 FYI----the Williams/Beeman Sport Aperture sight is as close to a perfect match to the R7 as you can get. Someone knew what he was doing----and will mourn the day that economic hardship robbed him of his baby.

 Go by and kiss the pawn shop guy occasionally! ;) ;D ;D

Did you make out like a XXXXX ape!?

EDIT language. Although funny, not very "family friendly" Bart
