siox07 6 Posted December 26, 2014 Report Share Posted December 26, 2014 SMK B2 I think mate.chinese made. Quote Link to post
Coypu Hunter 486 Posted December 27, 2014 Report Share Posted December 27, 2014 Yup, the black one looks like an old SMK. A shooting buddy gave me one of those recently, it had a nice orange varnish finish on the stock. If there's Chinese ideograms on the top of the action at the back, you're fecked. The rifle felt like it was putting out around 1 fpe. Gave it to my neighbour, who doesn't have the dosh to buy his own air rifle to plink the magpies that plague his stables. Even he said it was shite! 1 Quote Link to post
ratbuster 808 Posted December 27, 2014 Report Share Posted December 27, 2014 (edited) Being a good neighbour you should have given him your Weihrauch V-Mach HW 97K ....... instead of that crap B2 (B1 is without the barrel lock) Edited December 27, 2014 by ratbuster 1 Quote Link to post
Coypu Hunter 486 Posted December 27, 2014 Report Share Posted December 27, 2014 I'm not THAT good a neighbour! I did once lend him an 18 fpe Cometa in .22 that I used to own. He knocked down a few maggies with that. I told him to take the SMK apart, put about a pound of washers behind the piston head, reassemble and see what happens. Haven't heard back from him on that one... 1 Quote Link to post
ratbuster 808 Posted December 27, 2014 Report Share Posted December 27, 2014 You can improve those SMK / B2 a bit, but it never will be really good. Powerwise something like 8 / 9 fpe max (that's more than enough for a magpie, if you can hit it..... ) http://www.network54.com/Forum/113813/thread/1289816791/B2+Tuning 1 Quote Link to post
samuria 346 Posted December 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2014 are the relum ones any good Quote Link to post
Coypu Hunter 486 Posted December 27, 2014 Report Share Posted December 27, 2014 If you look at online reviews, they'll be mixed -- but the older Relums seem to be better regarded. Sounds like they're very basic, but get the job done, and can keep going for years. Chambers & Co do spares for them, I think, so you can always fix 'em if they go wrong. If you didn't pay over the odds for them, you may find they do what you need in terms of plinking and pest control. See here for some reviews. http://www.reviewcentre.com/reviews81895.html Quote Link to post
ratbuster 808 Posted December 27, 2014 Report Share Posted December 27, 2014 The place to get spares for Relum (that's Muler backwards, the importers name ...) is Protek supplies in the Good Old UK itself The guns were made by FEG (Hungarian air rifle manufacturer) in the 60 & 70's http://www.proteksupplies.co.uk/ Can be improved with a bit of LTD and some elbow grease Quote Link to post
