I am looking at this one and the Daisy 880 for my sons first BB gun. Is one better than the other? It will be just to shoot cans and targets.

you can`t go wrong with the pump bb gun. for the money and it`s workabilityits the best there is. your son will love it like I do. enjoy! let me know if you agree.

880 is a great starter BB gun for a child. They can then work their way to better BB guns such as the 25.

In my opinion, the daisy 880 might just be a little to powerful for a first gun. You will have to worry more about ricochet with the 880. It's a gun gun to move onto when he has proven safe and responsible. In the meantime, the model 25 will teach him fundamentals, safety, and responsibility. The cans and paper targets won't know the difference.

I don't know. I had a model 25 back in the late 50s and early 60s. That is why I bought this one. I would think they all are fine. Just depends on what he is going to use it for/

I would suggest the Red Rider for first BB Gun. Built right for a young person and easy to use...

I would choose this gun over the 760. The 760 has a smooth bore barrel, while this one has a rifled barrel. This one should be way more accurate with pellets. The 760 may be better with bbs though.

Not too bad, I ordered it for my 17 year old. We had a single break bb gun that was harder but also had a really powerful shot.

Spring rifle is a good starter gun but get an electric rifle instead. G&G;, AGM, Cyma are good brands.

Shoots both but stay away , I had mine about 3 weekd and the C02 seal starting Leaking and parts are almost impossible to get , gun looks and feels awsome but it is a piece of junk , BUYER BE BEWARE

It depends upon what you shoot the most. I have both and enjoy them both. They are both a bargain.

This BB gun is great. I can shoot far with pellets and be accurate. I have a very great scope, but that is unnecessary. For more distance choose a higher FPS, but for shooting cans, do this.

I have this air gun, it is ok....one of my compressors only puts out 135psi at 60cfm, this gun doesn't have the power the Aircat has, so recently have purchased the AirCat. The Aircat has higher torque and is a better gun....esp when we hook it up to a compressor that puts out 175psi. Hands down, choose the Aircat.

It shoots pellets great but expect to much from bbs. Way more accurate with pellets.

I have had the best luck with the jsb exact diablo 8.4gr as far as power and accuracy goes. I have a umarex octaine .177 that I have found to be very picky with pellets. Yours may differ...For what it's worth I would recommend trying a few different different brands and weights to see what shoots best for you

jeez steph. zack, idk what the fps is, but shes a nut :3 .2gram isnt the size of the bbs. 6mm is the size. .12 to .25 would be most reliable. id say its about 250-300 fps

If you mean shooting it in a large back yard, yeah. With solid backing material (1/2" plywood) and cardboard boxes and filler. Shooting at plastic water/soda bottles filled with water will slow down your projectiles well. This BB/pellet gun is no kiddie BB gun, like the Marksman Zombie Splat BB Repeater Rifle (which I also own; which is a lot more powerful than you would imagine, too), so treat it with respect and care for it. It's a nice rifle, though the pellet loading mechanism is little cumbersome/annoying. It would be nice if Daisy made a break-barrel...

Abner, I prefer the zinc coated Bb's over copper. I have shot most brands and they all work fine. The zincs leave less deposits in the barrel over time and I think k they are more uniform in size.

It is a gamble. Mine was total crap, same problem tons of other people had. Wont shoot half the time, and when it does a few go good the rest just fall out barrel or shoot 5 feet, I would tell you not to get this one there are others on amazon way better. About the shot gun,, i Knoiw my shot gun shoots about 350 fps,, it shot right through pepsi cans and shoots really good with heavy bb.

This hits hard. 50-60 yards consistent. Depending on ammo you can get about 1300 fps with the high velocity pellets. I shoot the heavier lead that runs about 900-950 subsonic but it is way more accurate and packs a punch. Most 22lr rounds are 1250fps but would carry lead further out. It will shoot the 100yds no problem but accuracy just will not be there. I have a ruger .177 that doesn't shoot as fast as this one and they are both way more than the daisy 10 pumps of old

It's just a single shot gun. I'd go with one that actually fires several bb's at a time.

Benjamin marauder and umarex fusion can't be compared. They are very different. Still marauder is much quieter.
