My bad. I'm thinking of an older gun, or something totally different entirely. Seems like back in the day Beeman imported an entry level gun that was cheaper than an R7 without the Rekord. That was when Beeman had sole distribution rights here in the states.

Given two identical guns with different branding, I'd get the less expensive. I've got an R10 with Beeman on the compression tube cap and Weihrauch on the butt pad, so that gun has branding covered both ways I guess.
