BB gun recommendations
So I want to buy a BB gun for a birthday present. I asked his mom and she is fine with it. I need a recommendation, when I was a kid I had the standard daisy. Still good, or is cross man better or is there a manufacturer that I don’t know about?
Thanks Joe

Read reviews.
https://www.pyramydair.com/s/m/Daisy...on_BB_Gun/2057 I like this over of the lever action ones to kids ready for a pump action shotgun. At $40, I’d probably get a lever action one too. https://www.pyramydair.com/s/m/Daisy...der_BB_gun/271 Don’t forget about eye protection, BBs and targets. |

Red ryder for the win. No chinc crap. I took several to baja to our panga peoples kids with lots of bb's. I was a hero to them. Best look in kids eyes I have ever seen.

My 85-year-old Mom has a really old Red Ryder. I recently took a picture of her holding it with that beautiful carved stock depicting Red Ryder. My 30-something kids said, "We have a Red Ryder BB Gun in the family!" Future Estate court battle is-a-brewing...

You've grown so go with more accuracy and better trigger.
This is what you need... https://www.pyramydair.com/s/m/Daisy...ampion_499/617 I have one - at 25ft you can do a clover leaf hole all day... Ultra accurate, no joke. Plus its easy to cock, has peep sights and quiet... You can see my Red Ryder shot spread to the Daisy Avanti's clover leaf...! Last edited by ejhc11; 08-13-2019 at 5:03 PM.. |

Wow, a Red Ryder is that crappy? I recall always hitting a 12 oz soda can standing, shooting as fast as possible. Prob not 25 feet though. More than 30 years ago too.
I might get my kid a lever springer under 400 FPS... but now I don't want the $40 one. Thanks a lot. |

Geesh, so the Match Grade is $135 shipped one-day from Amazon, and the Red Ryder is $25. I will Probably see if a Red Ryder will hit spinners on my trap at 10-15 feet. Is the Match one BB at a time and you have to stop to load the next one or is there a reservoir?
Amazon or Walmart won't ship airguns apparently (Sac, or Butte County - two I tried)... will have to go to Walmart and pick one up this weekend. Last edited by crufflers; 08-16-2019 at 10:36 AM.. |
