Mine is also the rare 'Pigeon' model, not the more common "Flying Turnip" model

Edgar,
I thought the "Pigeon" model had a straight grip and 32 LPI checkering. I'm afraid someone duped you. What you have is a "Yeoman's" grade with the corncob forend and plain walnut stock sans checkering.

Both mine, and Phil's are the rare Pre-64 model, long before the Yeoman model came out. These were engraved by famed engraver Stanislaw Kowalski

This is my model 118 Targeteer. Technically it isn't a BB gun. A BB gun shoots .177 diameter pellets. The Model 118 shoots a .118 diameter pellet, hence the model number 118.

This is my favorite concealed carry gun when I go out and suspect I'll run into a rogue gang of grey squirrels.
I do have a permit for this class of 'Destructive Devise'.

My bad. You never mentioned S. Kowalski as that upgrades it significantly.

Here in Md. you probably would.

Wow, I never knew Daisy had so much to offer. When I was a kid I only ever saw one type .... who knew. I did a search and I see lots of Daisy BB guns for sale on ebay????? I didn't think ebay allowed gun sales?

I also found this sit and learned a lot:

BB guns are not yet firearms

air rifles are getting that tag more and more, admittedly - some are getting pretty powerful

if kids (big or little) can't start out with them - its one more lost recruitment possibility and one more nail in the coffin of our sports

Sorry for the miss information, for some reason I thought Ebay wouldn't even let toy guns on the site? That's why finding BB Guns there surprised me.

I've just got the ol' Red Ryder - and it's a fairly recent issue no less. Here's Granddaughter Gracie with it; she's pretty good when she sights with the correct eye!

Not a Daisy side by side but a Fox. A. H. that is made in Philly.
