Description
The legendary Daisy Red Ryder bb gun! America's favorite air powered bb rifle since 1949, the first year it sold over a million units. Designed with young shooters in mind, the 1938 model bb gun is made with a wood stock and forearm that are sized just right for the younger shooter.
With a capacity of 650 BBs, you'll be shooting all day long! The front blade and ramp sight and adjustable open rear sight make this rife a breeze to learn accuracy and shooting techniques. The stamped metal receiver and synthetic cocking lever provide a smooth action for easy handling. And it now includes the revolutionary LASSO Mount that adds an 11mm Dovetail rail onto this classic rifle. Once fitted, you can easily add a small scope, and keep your targets nice and close.
Best Red Ryder Rifle Ammo
The most popular Daisy Red Ryder rifle ammo is metal BBs - either made of steel, copper, zinc or a combination of metals. BBs such as Air Venturi Steel BBs, Crosman Copperhead BBs or any standard 4.5mm or .177 caliber metal BBs work reliably with the Red Ryder's smoothbore barrel and large capacity ammo reservoir. This makes it perfect for plinking, shooting paper targets, and training new shooters.
Have fun shooting targets up to 5 meters (16.5 feet) away, but don't forget to wear safety glasses and remove pets from the area. BBs ricochet in unpredictable ways, and it's best to take precautions to prevent injuries. Never shoot BBs at hard objects or water.
The Daisy Red Ryder BB gun shoots up to 350 feet per second. Since it's a lever action spring bb gun, it only requires BBs to operate. Have fun shooting targets all day, and take turns practicing your accuracy.

10 of 94 Daisy Red Ryder 1938 Reviews
Can shoot all day on one fill. Well made good looking. My gun is more accurate than as described, I hit cans at 10 yards consistently and a 20oz coke bottle at 14 yards (60%). I have the scoped version, it is easy to zero and it holds adjustments well. The trigger is stiff but the pull is consistent with a clean break.
Things I Would Have ChangedNothing
What Others Should KnowIf you hold the gun wrong while cocking (look at the manual) a BB will not chamber. Have fun.
Well built and simple to use.
Things I Would Have ChangedNothing
What Others Should KnowGreat for teaching gun safety and techniques to my grandson
I love this gun! It is reliable, repeatable, quiet, light, easy to cock, and it holds over 600 BBs. It is perfect for an 8 year old to learn shooting basics - and for adults to scare unwanted critters out of the garden. Everyone should have one.
Things I Would Have ChangedI would change the advertised speed. The spec says 350 fps but mine is not even close. After putting 600 shots through it and lubricating per recommendations, the best I can get is slightly over 300 fps with standard 5.1 grain Daisy BBs, when measured through my chronograph. That is actually plenty fast for the uses mentioned above. (From what i calculate the only way that gun will shoot at 350 fps is if it is using BBs that only weigh 3.5 grains. As far as i know they don't exist .) The inflated speed is only reason i did not give it a 5 rating.
What Others Should KnowThere is no way you will get 350 fps. Figure on 300 fps. If you maintain it properly you will be passing this down to your grandchildren.
If you’re into shooting this is a great beginner
What Others Should KnowAccurate and low power in case of mistakes learning

Wow! This is so much fun. Bought it for my 9 y/o daughter and she loves it. No CO2, holds plenty of rounds, easy to load, and viciously accurate. Can't attest to reliability because we've only had it for a month but have put around 300 rds with no problems.

Simple to operate, high magazine capacity, rugged like Kalashnikov, and when I pick it up and go outside it makes me feel like Christmas.
Things I Would Have ChangedCan't think of anything.
What Others Should KnowJust came in from reducing the invasive species population, lizards. The Red Ryder does quite well at 5 yards and a yard or two more. What's that you say? I am an invasive species also? Well yes...but there can be only one.
