Mystery Chinese airgun SOLVED, THANKS

[yorgi]

Recently took in on as part of a trade, has absolutely no markings. Assume it's Chinese-made, have no idea of manufacturer and I'm hoping the learned people here can identify it for me. Under-barrel cocking lever, looks to be a .22 but don't have any pellets handy to confirm.

I believe that is a Norinco B3 pellet gun.

The cocking handles are made of soft steel and bend easily.Can be re-inforced with a steel rod epoxied in it to strengthen it.Tune kits and parts are still available.Leather seal I believe.
