When a 159-Year-Old Company Reinvents the .22 Rifle...

Hammerli Force B1 Rifle​

Hammerli isn’t exactly a household name here in the United States. In Europe, however, they are a mainstay. They have been building guns since 1863 and are known for their precision air rifles and 22s.

The B1 is a straight-pull, biathlon-style, .22 Long Rifle-chambered rifle with a few unique features that make it an attractive rimfire option.

Very desirable!

I bought one of their 22's a while back, a really well made gun, much better made than my colt ar22. it also works every time unlike my colt ar22. it uses colt mags. all metal on upper and lower. they are made in fort smith Arkansas. i highly recommend them.

I really, really like that. Dead quiet, with no action noise if you suppress it, but the straight pull makes follow ups fast if desired.

And a barrel swap gives you .22WMR? Sign me up!

I’ve got an Sig Hammerli AR .22 that’s crazy accurate, and reliable…I truly regret not getting one of the Sig Hammerli (Trailside?) target pistols back when they were affordable.

A couple US companies have tried the 10/22 biathlon action but they've seemed to have had issues & the price is very high.

I've looked at them for an ultimate "quiet" suppressed 22lr. but shied away.

This has reignited my interest.

Camo the stock/barrel with rattle-can or Cerakote like in the vids.

They make an attractive 1911 .22lr.

Looks good, don't know about that one but their AR22 is the best out there.

The thing looks interesting, particularly if you like the idea of the straight pull rifles used in biathlon, but the removable barrel seems to me to be a weak point for accuracy. I do notice from the various reports that the accuracy with good ammo is rather casual, but the accuracy with high speed stuff like the CCI Minimag can be pretty good. I will pass.
