    Daisy Red Ryder

    How do they do it for the money?
    Wood and metal multi shot rifle that is great fun and an icon?

    Gingernut having second childhood again.

    Unfortunately I notice that there are many special editions!

    I have had one for donkeys years , it lives in the garage. I passed it on to my grandson when he was 10 y.o., now he is 20 and has other 'interests' so he gave it me back. It still shoots as hard as the day it left the factory, with just a few drops of oil every once in a while.
    Talk about value for money.
    I also have the model 25 Centennial, now that is a thing of beauty.

    I also have one which I brought back from the states , and in my wife's suitcase still don't know how I got away with that one!!!

    I love it, 650 Bbs I think it holds which makes it nice and heavy on aim.

    I did alittle tunning to mine, tinkered with the trigger to get it a lot lighter and also polished and debuted the barrel/tube as I noticed the ball flight was always veering to the left and this sorted it out, as the barrel /tube on min was a piece of tin? Which was moulded to make the tube shape so had a very slight join which seemed to have an affect on the ball as it was blasted out at the massive power of 3ft or maybe less (can't remember now)

    Love shooting little 2by 2 inch pieces of wood off my flower bed wall from 10 yards in 5 yard intervals out to 25 yards!

    Love it!
    Would never part with it!

    I have a few spare shot tubes knocking about, I will have a look later today to see if one fits a 25. If I don't get back to you send me a pm. ( I have a lousy memory).
