Daisy 880S Kit

The best bb/pellet gun I've ever bought in terms of accuracy. I've taken out countless birds and squirrels with this gun. Not to mention a large groundhog with a single shot. I never mounted the scope to it and just used regular iron sights and had no problem dispatching squirrels up to and beyond 100 ft away. Great gun would recommend it to anyone for plinking or pest control.

I’ve had two first one I shot the barrel out shooting bbs and my groups kept opening up with pellets, so I bought another for just using pellets. Incredibly accurate however the scope is completely worthless. No field of view and makes hunting more difficult then using irons. I replaced the scope with a 4x32 offa junk springer I had and I can hold groups that will fit under a penny at 20 yards. Hunted squirrels and rabbits out to about 15 and all successful clean kills with heavier pellets. Done pest control on farms and have killed a few crows with it. Great starter gun, beware that if you shoot bbs and pellets your groups will open up with pellets and bbs will open up as well

Pros
Accurate, light weight , reliable, can control power level

Cons
Trigger is heavy and scope is junk but for an air rifle like this it’s a great deal

I have three vintage models of these ,I got my first one one for christmas when i was thirteen, a Sears Eldorado which is essentially a Daisy 880 with a gold color metal receiver and metal pump arm with different color plastic stocks (says crafted by Daisy ). The iron sights seem to work very well in my experience ,easy to adjust and use.One of the better values in air gunning today i highly recommend it. You can't go wrong. My other two are Daisy 880's circa 1980's. Recently rebuilt my Sears model was not holding air , got the rebuild kit and now it shoots like new .I bought the Winchester 77XS which is no more than a Daisy 880 with a thumbhole stock ,i was disappointed to find that is mostly plastic but on a positive note it is very light and seems durable .These rifles are very easy to pump for just about anyone.Loading a pellet is another story almost takes a pair of tweezers to load, but BB's work well .880 'S can be found on Ebay with the metal receiver and pump arm for around the same price as the plastics , and then they can still be rebuilt for even less.

Pros
Very light ,easy to pump seems durable even with the plastic construction. Quiet. Great iron sights.

Cons
The scope included is not good.

Once it is zeroed in, I found this airgun was perfect for discouraging squirrels and doves who make a mess in my attic/yard.

Pros
Easy to shoot, quiet, and once zeroes the telescopic sight is very good.

Cons
Pellets need a channel designed to keep them oriented when placed in the chamber. Too often they flip over and you have to shake them out and re-align them. I don't use BBs, so I can only assume they feed without trouble, not having a front or back.

I have had this sine I was 4 it is a great gun for kids but I want a new gun now

I bought this as my first rifle. I used it for hunting and I must say it gets the job done. I did have one problem with though. After about month my safety broke and I was only able to turn it on when the rifle was loaded. Probably a minor fix... idk, but all and all it makes for a great first time rifle and great for kids too.

Pros
Great, easy to use for beginners and children and not expensive at all. great for for small game hunting.

Cons
my safety broke after a month and i was only able to to turn it on when rifle was loaded.

I bought this for some plinking fun, but soon realized this little bb/pellet gun could do more than just plink. I will say, the scope this comes with is junk, so don't waste your time on it. The iron sights where dead on out of the box for me. Get a very good grouping every time. As for power I'd definitely say this could dispatch squirrels and birds with no problems. But use pellets if you can, although bb's would probably still get the job done. Also this gun could take rabbit I'm sure. I've been hunting many years now and I'm sure this gun could get the job done. This rifle is extremely light, which can throw you off at first, especially when you're used to heavier break barrels. But the advantage of the weight means it's easier to haul with you through the woods. It's light weight also makes it a great first air gun for a kid. Overall this gun is worth the money. It's great for plinking and hunting small pests!

Pros
Lightweight, Accurate, Descent power

Cons
Scope

i got this at walmart for 40. as with all pump rifles it doesnt give u a follow up shot but if u have zeroed it properly and have a steady hand it will not let u down. i am actually getting better than 800fps witb crossman pellets. around 850fps on my chronograph. the scope is ok. not great tho but as one reviewer said it does hold its zero well. i found that it groups best at 15yds with the iron sights.

Pros
cheap. reliable. accurate.

Cons
cheap. scope could be better. the screws were a little loose out of the box. but tighten them up and theyll be ok.

Out of nostalgia when I went to get some air guns for my step sons and one for myself I bought these three of them. I went through two of these as a youngster and when they broke it was due to NO fault of their own I really really used the heck out of em. But from the initial un-boxing these have been disappointing. Lots of plastic where there was formerly metal The barrels were not tightly bedded in the shrouds causing hideous inaccuracy the scopes were only gotten because the with scope cost the same as without but when I ordered I got three scopes of better quality for them never even unwrapped the freebie scopes. I have managed to get decent accuracy on mine by drilling small holes in the shroud (could have been one but my own mistake required a second) and injecting a couple syringes of epoxy. It is also way pickier about what pellets it will shoot well then my old one my old one shot everything well it seemed just needing a loppy little sight adjustment between pellet types but this one is super picky I finally settled on Gamo Tomahawk pellets as it does now shoot these into a single hole at 20 yards. I doubt seriously that this one will last anywhere near as long as my Old two did ( many thousands of shots each) but then I don't shoot like I did so it will probably last me well enough and hopefully long enough to hand off to a grandson. If it was to be done over I'd have spent the extra to get the Benjamins though they may not be as well made as they were either. Hate that nobody seems to make good stuff anymore and if they come close they want more than a decent 22lr costs. Shame on daisy.

Pros
With a bit of work and epoxy will shoot well enough for a trainer.

Cons
Cheaply and sloppily built, scope is trash, A FAR cry from what this model used to be. Should even be able to give it the same model name it is so far removed.

So I got this and put to test and I was very surprised by the power it has and the distance it has with pellets. The scope on the other hand went in the trash because that's all it is. on full power it went through 3 of the 4 empty soup cans I had set up denting the 4th.

Pros
Power and distance it can deliver that power and accurate once you adjuat the sights

Cons
The scope is garbage would rather them not even send the thing at all I feel as if I got the short end of the stick by them sending me scope that's worthless but nothing wrong with the rifle.
