Sears/Daisy Lever Action BB Rifle Find
I thought I'd share my latest find. A neighbor of mine was clearing out some old boxes and came accross this Sears/Daisy Lever Action BB Gun.
Well she offered and I couldn't hardly take it out of her hands quick enough(It's been a slow year for me if as far as guns go)
Anyway I hope you enjoy...If anyone has any info on it feel free to share.
Thanks,
Kobsw

That was my very first gun... and it was a shooter!
Thanks for sharing. It brought back some fuzzy memories and put them into clear focus with the close up pics.

I got a brand new one in about 1955. I had forgotten but was reminded by your photo's of the "engraving" and the simulated wood grain in the plastic stock.

I worked for Sears for 20 years. They stopped all gun sales including air rifles in '85-'86, so it would obviously predate that. Sears gun related stuff is pretty collectable these days.
