that has been very debated over the past few yrs! but according to Edith Gaylord no! about the R9 first time I've heard this one! LOL!!!!!! :o according to Edith Gaylord Dr Beeman no longer has the rights to the Beeman name so IMO as with others its up to HW whether they continue using the Beeman name on the rifles! :P

I am guessing the Beeman name is owned by a Chinese company so who knows you may be right.

A Chinese company did by Beeman. I believe they sold the rights to the remaining time on the Weihrauch contract with Beeman. Whether they allow or it to be renewed or Weihrauch is willing to renew it is anyones guess.

Even IF the R9 was discontinued, no biggie. There is still the HW95 which is every bit the equal!
