“BUFFALO BILL SCOUT”
VINTAGE DAISY MODEL 1894 3030 WINCHESTER STYLE WESTERN CARBINE BB REPEATER AIR RIFLE
The most iconic of all the Daisy’s Wild-West look-a-likes the 1894 series models were such a good likeness to the actual Winchester that Hilliers book states they were used in films and parades as stand ins.
This particular model is one of the rarer named editions and was produced from 1969-1973.
The rifle features a wood effect brown plastic stock and grey japanned metal parts.
It operates exactly the same as a genuine Winchester; the cocking lever half cocks the action on the downward stroke and completes it on the return.
BB’s are loaded by depressing the sprung loaded door to the right hand side of the action and pouring them into the channel. Then if you point the barrel towards the floor and push forward the sprung slide to the magazine tube on the underbarrel up to 40 BB’s will roll into it.
Before firing you need to pull back the cocking hammer, so again just like the real thing!
Note, the rifle ONLY takes 4.5mm BB shot.
Condition; stock is intact with no losses, cracks or repairs, just some surface marks. I have the original silver medallion that should be mounted to the side of the stock. Various losses to the japanned metal finish at the edges and high points and some pitting to the original butt plate. Original fore and rear sights and saddle ring on forearm.
This piece is working fine.
There’s plenty of pictures so if you’re interested have a good look and contact me with any questions.
