I enjoy cheap air guns like your SMK B2 etc any cheapo springer to be honest i love my TX200 and its always one of the ones i take to the range but i kinda enjoy the fun of a cheapo gun how about you lot?
 
I enjoy seeing if I can make cheapo stuff shoot better but can't really say I enjoy using them., bit like driving a lada then a nice Audi or something it does make you appreciate good stuff though .
 
I love polishing a turd mate best to fettle a cheap on to make it shine, takes 30 mins to make a weihrauch or tx on point but can have to strip a Chinese rifle a few times and put some effort in but worth it when it all comes together.
 
Good fun to try make them better, and many of them are very accurate as well.
And great fun plinking with them.
Love my little CP2.
 
Cheap when bought new or cheap when bought used ?
both i have a £10 SYNX and a £60 Copperhead so both really compared to my TX and PCP they are obviously outmatched but for just plinking fun i love them

totally agree but i would still want the Lada! maybe im just not the most advanced human :unsure:
 
Yep, nowt wrong with a nice cheap gun.
Liked my Beeman p17 pistol, almost as good as the HW40 but only half the price.
My Daisy Red Ryder BB gun is oodles of fun knocking tin cans down.
Also really liked my SMK CP2 co2 pistol/carbine, very accurate little gun.
Plus I've had very good value Hatsan and Cometa springers and still have my lovely Kral NP02 a very nice little pcp.
Simple plain enjoyment does not always have to cost a lot....
Enjoy yours buddy... ;)(y)
 
My back to standard CP2 and home butchered B2 have both recently had trips to the range along side my more usual choices. Although in the B2's case it was more out of a morbid curiosity. (Shoots lovely and smooth but groups like a shotgun - need to recrown the barrel properly)
