Barra 1866 Junior Reviews

Bought this gun (3 of them to be exact) for our three children for Christmas this year. What a blast our kids have been having with these guns! Very precise shots and so easy for them to handle. The gun is well built, doesnt scratch easy, and not too long.

I bought this for Christmas for my kids 7 & 8 years old to teach them about gun safety and how to handle a gun properly without being scared. They were both able to understand and get the hang of it super quick. Loved that the instructions manual came with a list of safety “rules” would definitely buy again

Bought this BB gun and have thoroughly used it with my kids, it's so cool how the hammer is designed to be the safety and the lever is designed to be the pump, also the bolt action is smooth, GREAT PRODUCT!!!!!

Received this for Christmas today. Have tried other similar air rifles before, and this is definitely a stand out. Very quiet and smooth. Accuracy seems great so far. Easy pumping even for my 10 year old.

It is a nice rifle to teach your youngsters marksmanship and to plink around. It comes as a kit to start shooting immediately with targets and everything. The company seems to be safety-conscious as it includes glasses. The best feature is the one-pump pressure build-up, which is enough to send the projectile with plenty of velocity to plink with. The best feature is that it can shoot both pellets and bb's. The only downside is that it is plastic so it won't take kids' abuse for too long.

Great price for what you get. It’s better than similar brands at a better price. I bought the kit for my daughter for Christmas, she loves it.

Great starter air rifle....exceptional quality at a very reasonable price. Very pleased with this little air rifle.

Recently bought the 1866 Junior for the kids to learn safety and fundamentals with. Other air rifle was too large but the 1866 Junior is a great size for them.

Amazing BB gun, thank you guys so much for everything there was no hassle on getting a replacement gun lots of happy kids in the house we're all going to go shoot the BB gun together. Teaching gun safety!

Bought this for my son to learn how to start shooting. Super simple to use and shoots great. My son is loving it! He was especially excited that it came with his own pair of eye protection! Would definitely purchase again

I love the quality and performance of it. Great purchase to have.

I got this for my son,and he loves it. Very well made. Great gun.

He wants to go hunting so bad. Your rifle has been an excellent learning tool for him, oh & not to mention, he is a crack shot, after I taught him.how to use the irons. This rifle is excellent and the Aim ( at short distances ) is dead on. I am very pleased with it. The only thing I think could be a bit better would be the actual firing power. He has hunted squirrels, and believe it or not has got one. But all in all, it's great for teaching safety and firing practices.

I honestly have no dislikes, my son absolutely LOVES it. He says he feels like he's holding a "real" gun. Haha. But I love how it came with targets and safety glasses also.

I liked the idea of the price/package for my youngster to start learning about guns and gun safety. Ill start by saying that it was nicely packaged and equipped. It shoots rather straight and did not scare him with a loud pop. I honestly felt like the lever/housing action is a bit on the flimsy side being made from plastic. I am worried about its durability. Other than that, it is a very nice beginner gun.

From my son: I really like this gun. It is pretty easy to use. I had fun shooting at targets on our land. Thank you

This is a great gun kit for the price! Easy to use and easy to maintain. Great for target practice.

Easy to use and a good fit for my size! Delivery was fast and I’m excited for target practice

We purchased this gun for our 9 year old son. He was intimidated to shoot at first but once he did, he loved it! He is spending time target practicing with his dad so it is also wonderful bonding time for them.

Ok, so don't expect the moon with this air rifle. However, what you can expect is a lot of fun, with your kids, and a great way to teach methodical safety procedures. I love the fact the kit comes with 1000 SS BBs, no lead! While lead is cheap and easy, I don't like the idea of my kids handling them. Love the fact the barrel is rifles, means that shooting pellets is great. I love the fact that you can have BBs and pellets in one good looking rifle. From the specs, the level seemed like it would be metal, but in the version I received, the lever is definitely plastic. I am not sure the longevity of the lever, and if there was an optional upgrade to metal, I would immediately upgrade it. I think it is great as a backyard plinker, sights are reasonably accurate.
