New Daisy BB Gun

Wondering if their is any interest in bb guns.I have all sorts of big guns and a few german $$$ spring piston air rifles,but it all started 35 yrs ago with a Daisy 102 cub.Rescently I`ve been trying to buy a good new Daisy.By sons 5yr old 105 groops in 1in. or so at 15 yds.These new guns,a m95 and a red ryder I`ve bought shoot in about 10in throwing them about any where.These new guns "mist" oil with each shot.Seems they might be getting a little better after 1000 shots with less mist.Also seems like that 105 of my sons was a dog when we 1st got it.Any feedback appreciated,thanks,DD

    Sounds like you are more into air rifles than I am, but my vote goes to crossman. The model 7600 was plenty accurate to get me started. After that, I went to one of those chinese single shots, with the cocking lever under the barrel. It allowed me to hit coke bottle caps with fair consistency at ranges up to 100 yards. After that, I went to firearms.Recently, daisy has been focusing more on the area of paintball, and it is possible that the quality of their bb and pellet guns have fallen behind and are no longer the priority. One more reason for crossman.
