Sifu456's Review of Shanghai QB88
26th Oct 2004
Overall Rating
- Value for money
- Handling
- Accuracy
TF88 lightweight, accurate and powerful tapered barrel and adjustable trigger similar to the B18/B19s. Fair/good rear and front sights quite, usable sights. A definite upgrade from TF41 though it seems ever so slight.
Bad Points
Flimsy rear sight, more plastic parts then on the TF41 which its the upgrade to.
General Comments
The Shanghai QB88 looks like a TF41 until you pick it up and feel its improved handling due to a better Monte Carlo stock and smoother trigger. This light weight rifle can make hits on 4" targets out to 50 yards with iron sights. It's probably more accurate inside 40 yards which is far more consistent then the less accurate TF41. The last time I check the QB88 cost $88 and the TF41 was on sale for $39.99. Does the QB88 merits $40 more dollars it depends where you want to start. Do you want to work the TF41s poor/fair trigger and scope it. Or do you want to start with a fair/good trigger and shot accurate from jump.

I can do better with a Shanghai-built QB88 or QB18 (Hammerli 490) with open sights than I can with the '61 and a scope. Second, the QC on the mags are not good.
