The R9 break barrel .177 caliber air rifle shoots hard at a velocity of 930 fps, and
at only 7.3 pounds is among the lightest
air rifles for this power level.The
traditional spring piston powerplant will
give years of reliable use.
The Beeman reputation for quality is
evident throughout this German
crafted airgun, hand assembled for
generations of shooting pleasure. The
elegant hardwood stock has a graceful
styling. Although there is a slight Monte
Carlo cheekpiece designed for right-
handed shooters, the stock is truly
ambidextrous and suitable for those
shooting from either shoulder. '['here is
even a soft rubber butt plate trimming
off the end.
The famous Beeman "R" Series trigger
is standard fare, and has long been
regarded as among the finest sporting
triggers ever designed. Factory set at
approximately two pounds, the trigger is
fully adjustable to your preference. The
automatic safety engages each time the
air rifle is cocked, and can easily be
released by depressing the button on the
back of the receiver. At only 43 inches
in length, the R9 is compact and easy to
handle. The rear sights are fully
adjustable for windage and elevation,
and the scope dovetails are machined
right into the receiver for better stability.
The R9 Goldfinger in addition to all of
the features of the standard R9, includes
a full length, ambidextrous stock with checkering on the forend and pistol
grip. The Goldfinger comes fully
equipped with a Bushnell Banner 412x40 scope, two-piece medium
Sportsmatch mounts and a solid muzzle
brake. The scope and mounts are
installed and sighted-in by the Beeman
gunsmiths making this air rifle ready to
use right out of the box.
Originally introduced as a short term
promotional combo, the Goldfinger has
become a favorite of the Beeman
customers and was incorporated into
our main product line-up. Due to
popular demand, in 2004 we added this
combo in a .177 caliber version, sure to
become another favorite.
