[vintageairguncollector@gm]

Hi

Does anybody know how to determine the date of production for a vintage Daisy model 25?

Here a few pics, loading tube is old school cool, air rifle is strong for a single pump BB gun.

Thanks for any help.

by B.B. Pelletier Most of you don't know this, but I receive many questions and comments on the older blogs. One of them, the one about the Daisy No. 25 pump-action BB gun, is particularly active, and the questions are almost always the same. They want to know which version of the gun they have.

Randy, thanks for posting. Thats really neat and glad to hear it still works. Perhaps you should just contact Daisy and see what they have to say. Would love to see a pic showing the whole rifle and hearing how old it is. Good luck!

Made in Plymouth so it’s pretty old

Septic Death thanks for leads, I have determined it is a 1930 - 1935. Based on BB articles.
Rifle has post-1930 receiver tang but a pre-1935 longer barrel straps instead of a short strap with 2 spot welds. Shoots strong, it was part of a group buy not an intentional purchase. This is a fun BB gun. It is a definite keeper.
