Hi fellow enthusiasts. Couple years back I was 'in the money', so when I saw a fellow named Gene (you probably know him as the NW Daisy master) at an antique show I decided to take the plunge.

I own a large collection of Daisy Rayguns, but for real shooters I only have my old Crossman 140 that I grew up shooting.

I bought a Near Mint first year Red Ryder with the scope from Gene. At the next show I bought a Near Mint Model 25 from 1932, (with the scope).

Well last week I actually found another first year Red Ryder on Craigslist. The fellow swore it was from the 60's, so I didn't argue. I just smiled while looking at those copper bands....and handed him the cash.
