Daisy, the air gun company, built these rifles between 1988 and 1991 We take a look at how they work and their features Gun Websites.com GunWebsites.com ---------------------------------- Gun Channels www.GunChannels.com
I had the one with the black ABS stock. I got it in 1988. It was extremely accurate. I was able to shoot clays with it. It was stolen from me in 1992. I had so much fun with that little gun. Have always wanted another one.
The plastic stock models were 2201, 2202 and 2203. The wood stock models were identical to the plastic stock models and even said 2201, 2202 or 2203 on them but were actually designated as 2211, 2212 and 2213. The metal parts of the rifles were the same no matter what the stock was made of. You also had the option to buy the opposite stock and fore arm through Daisy as they were universal wood or plastic. The 2 wood stock models he shows are the 2211 (single shot) and the 2213 (semi auto). They were NOT super high quality rifles although they were fine beginners rifles and reasonably accurate to shoot. I have several of them myself. Daisy was forced to stop producing them because they were not licensed to build actual rifles that used powder, only air guns... Main reason for the short production.
Thank you so much for this video. Showed me so much about it. I got one for my son for $20 off a family member years ago. Didn't have any of the original papers with it. This really made it nice. We have the 2202 wood stock with the magazine. It would make a great backpack camping gun now that we know it comes apart so easy. Again ty.
Great video. Just picked up a Daisy for 150 bucks in fairly good condition. It's a 10 shot Bolt action in the wooden stock. Never seen a Daisy before (Didn't even know they made them), was happy about finding it.
I owned one of the single shot rifles, with the 10 round magazine. One thing that wasn't mentioned in the video is that the rifles also have an adjustable length of pull. At least the plastic one does. You can briefly see in the video a round circle in the side of the butt stock. You push in and twist the circle, or mine had a screwdriver type slot, and you could pull on the end of the butt stock to add about 2" of length. When finished, or for younger shooters with shorter arms, you could push and twist the circle and butt it right back up to the stock. Pretty neat idea for a company like Daisy and well ahead of its time.
Dizy Tizy Bah and you think it was easy convincing an overprotective grandmother to allow her 10yo granddaughter to have a bbgun instead of a dollhouse? XD
I have a Daisy bolt .22 with the 10 round mag. Wish I got my hands on more mags. They're very difficult to find now, and when you do find one, they're almost as expensive as the gun itself. Ruger 10/22 mags, although they look similar, won't work. I've heard of people modding them to fit, but I haven't had the time to try that out yet.
I have one of these in semi auto. A fair warning is that is can go off unexpectedly. I was having trouble with the ejector and when my father was trying to get it to eject properly it went off right through the roof of our house at the time. He could have removed the trigger though before doing this, but if you don't it can be hazardous just slamming the action closed.
MrTrialofK I am an owner of a gun club and you should always treat the gun as if it is going to go of so keep it facing down range or whatever you where shooting at...
@@JonJonGTA you do understand younger adults don’t always get to choose careful adults in their life right? Fathers who may not allow their children to question their actions. Or people who forget guns can be unreliable. Or people who get no training at all. While common sense blessed both of us there are others out there. There are also self defense situations where a weapon will be loaded in a house. So while your “not use live ammunition” is great advice there are situations where people should be aware a gun will fire on its own.
i have the model 2202 great little gun..thing is mine had a goofy looking yellow goldish psint job on the stock (looked like it was factory) actually made me think of vomit every time i looked at it so i decided to take it off and i did ...when sanding that paint off i uncovered some really nice wood grain.... at that point i decided that painting black wasnt a good idea so i stained it ... (have forgotten what stain color i used) and then applied a coat of polyurethane (using a foam brush) the urethane was so smooth it didnt need sanding after about a monthe of curing i removed the stock again and applied a coat of meguiars color rx (prescription) wax to the stock ..flash forward to today the stock still so shiny that one can see himself ..although its time to repaint the pot metal components again ..(paint just doesnt stick well to pot metal) but other than that it functions well and is pretty acurate with a scope... the sights were gone when i bought the gun... so i had no choice but mount a scope i dont regret my little 6 dollar tasco scope at all and i dont think any one else will either... be cool yall...
I have owned 2 of the semi autos.... Just FYI daisy did a recall on all semi auto versions. The "trigger" has a VERY small spring that falls out and allows the gun to slam fire multiple rounds. My 2nd gun started shooting full auto (3 or 4 rounds before it jammed). The spring broke..... I destroyed the gun (fear of having it) and sold the other. This was 15 years ago and I paid 50 per gun. Neither would shoot 7 rounds without jamming. Horrible design! The plastic mag has the feed ramp and as it gets worn out it only gets worse.
