I have a Beeman super 12 it was my dads and hoestly i know nothing about it. I was thinking about selling it but i dont even know a value for it. Ive tried searching for info and cant find much at all. If anyone could point me in the direction of a users manual or give me a value of the rifle it would be greatly appreciated. Also it also has a huge tank that goes with it but im not familiar with air rifles at all so i dont know what it would be filled it or a value of it also.

in its time, it was "the" airgun, still has a cult following, and hangs with anything made today. you have the cats meow, the big fish in the lake etc..... needless to say, you have something quite amazing.

Little late to this thread, but I too have a Beeman super 12. Mine is .20 cal and is a very accurate rifle.
As mentioned these are Rapids imported under the Beeman umbrella. Parts are available from RAW, I picked up another magazine.
If un-modified, the bottle/tank unscrews from the receiver to fill from the large tank that you mention. Your dad probably has the appropriate hose.
These are great guns and if you have any interest in air guns you should hang onto it. PM me if you need more help or info.
