Beeman QB78

Light weight accuracy at a bargain price. Purchased two of these and the co2 last in order to get the job done. Yes, it will eliminate pest especially at ranges 10 yds or so. Have used it for this purpose with resounding success. Go to co2 rifle.

Nice CO2 rifle.Shots good and I hear it can be modified also.I like the wood stock.

Pros
Easy to shoot,wood stock,heavy feel,accurate.

I got this gun and liked how it feels and looks, unfortunately I had to return it for multiple reasons.

1- Barrel diameter doesn't work with the silencer I am looking to buy for this rifle.
2- Iron sights can't be zero'd at 10 yards. I believe it's been designed to be zero'd at 20-25 yards as it' shots at 1 inch high while the back sight is at the lowest it can get.


* if you are not looking to use the Iron sights or install a silencer on this gun, it's a great gun to have.

Pros
* light weight. * stock is very nice.

Cons
Louder than I expected for a gun rated 2-low. but not as loud as my RWS 34.

I got this gun for my wife because she is a dainty lady and break barrel air rifles are hard for her to cock. This gun is amazingly accurate at 25 yards. I put a scope on it because both of us are far sighted and cant see the sights very well. With the Diabolo 18.3 grain pellets, this gun is lights out. It is almost boring because of the accuracy. She can shoot smiley faces on 1 inch targets at 25 yards! The shot count is very good and the pellets hit hard. I would not hesitate taking a squirrel at 25 yards with this air rifle. The gun is balanced so shooting off hand is good as well. We are very happy with the QB78 and would definitely recommend this gun to anyone wanting a good shooting pellet rifle.

Pros
Good stock, great trigger, very accurate, quiet, easy to use.

Cons
Safety is a little hard to work.

Great little gun shoots dime size groups at 10 meters with open sights, first CO2 powered rife and I love it.

Pros
Great gun for the money shoots like a tack driver

Cons
couple blemishes very minor

Ordered this on black Friday got a good deal (thanks AG depot!!). This little sub 100$ rifle is absolutely amazing in my honest opinion. I have yet to mount a scope but have found the cheap iron sight to be more than sufficient at 10 meters. Perfect gun to teach someone about gun safety and a good rifle for smaller framed shooters. I have shot 6 different pellets through it the two best being Beeman Kodiaks (domed 10.65 grain) and JSB exacts 8.44 grain, the other pellets were actually very accurate just not so much so as the two I named. A couple things i noticed about this gun (and these are the only things i noticed that only very slightly bothered me) are that the stock has one small dent and some rough spots, couple scratches on the breech and what MAY be a stripped out grub screw that holds the barrel to breech. This may not be stripped I simply put a 2.5 mm Allen wrench in it when I received it and there was some wiggle. I plan on installing the repeating breech kit so I guess I'll find out for sure then. I highly recommend this little rifle, it's accurate easy to operate and has a very adequate shot count for 2 CO2 cartrides (I got 70 shots out of each fill, if I was shooting pests i would probably only consider the first 50 as usable within a 20 yard range on SMALL pests. Just for the record i have put around 200 rounds through this just today, that's how fun it is to shoot.

Pros
super accurate well put to together for under 100$ - good price for a gun of this quality easy to operate (especially for younger shooters) not to picky about pellets perfect for plinking relatively quiet buy one you wont regret it

Cons
some small scuffs on breech and stock, one tiny dent and a possible stripped out breech screw (do not know for sure) that I only own one

Good quality. Good price. Good accuracy. Good power as a CO2 rifle goes. This one is hard to beat. Rabbits don't stand a chance inside of 30 yards. Mine is a .22 and loves Crossman 14.5 gr Premier pellets. This gun does lock up when it gets much over 105 degrees outside. My chronograph results would be higher than most, due to shooting in 100 degree temps, so won't bore you with them. I do understand that velocities do drop when temps get too close too. Also if you are plinking. Take a minute or two between shots to allow the CO2 to warm up a little. Good close range small game hunting rifle, great plinker, good target practice gun, just a whole lot of fun. Accurate enough to really shine with a 3-12X40 AO mil dot scope.

Pros
Price Quality Weight Easy to use Accurate

Cons
Cost of CO2 Not good for hot places or to use right from a hot trunk.

I own a good and expensive German breakbarrel springer, a good and expensive underlever springer and a low cost made in China breakbarrel. They all have a place and a purpose. This Beeman QB78 is my only CO2 gun and will be the last one I ever need. This little rifle is really quite amazing for its low price. It has plenty of power, NO recoil at all and very quiet. Plus the accuracy is very good, much better than I ever suspected it would be. I have always wanted a good high quality PCP but I can not justify the high price and all the extra stuff you have to get for a PCP. The Beeman QB78 is a great alternative. I am very happy so far.

Pros
Inexpensive to purchase, Quiet and powerful at the same time! Lightweight, CO2 cartridges last a long time. The factory open sights are Ok but I put on small scope to make it even more fun to shoot. It is a handsome gun, also looks more expensive than it is.

Cons
Safety is terrible, very hard to use. The pellets are tricky to get in the chamber with the scope right above it. The bolt was hard to operate for the first 50 pellets.

Purchased the .177 & the .22. Both have got to be the most impressive c02 rifles offered in their category. For the price I have not experienced a nicer air rifle. Of course one can pick anything apart to express negatives but all things considered these qb78's are top notch in my opinion. I happen to like the basic qb78 with the black bolt and trigger. Absolutely no issues whatsoever. I also prefer the black over the gold and do not require a two stage trigger gold deluxe version. Do not need! These are in my top five c02 rifle choices.

Pros
Light weight, easy to handle, very accurate, quiet, easy c02 load, nice wood stock, well made, scope able, plenty knock down power short range 15yds on pests.

Cons
Not a single complaint!

Purchased the .177 & .22. Both are in my top 10 with all 10 being the best I have. Cannot beat the price and performance. Both are the basic qb78 and I have no negatives. Personally I prefer the black bolt & trigger. Bolt size is sufficient. Easy to scope load and shoot. Excellent purchases. Both are worth much more for what you get. Must have rifles. . .!.

Pros
See above and . . .very very accurate, quiet, powerful, light weight, easy to handle, scopeable, 50-60 strong shots per dua c02 loads, very nice wood, on and on. . .

Cons
Not a single one!
