What's your favorite CHEAP airgun?

I got curious because I am so impressed with the Beeman P-17 I got a few years ago. For a less than $50 plinker, it's astonishingly accurate with any pellet I feed it.
Is any el-cheapo in your collection swinging above it's weight?

When you see a cz634 for sale I suggest getting it. Those synthetic stock (last ones available) in US for around $100 were shooters.......If you don't have a P17 you're not having enuf fun..........

All my airguns are inexpensive, and I have a lot of them. Only 1 cost more than $100 bucks. My P17 is the first one I'd throw off a bridge!

They might sound like a lot of work till you realize you only need 3-4 pumps for plinking.

Probably the daisy model 25.
I tried to like the p17, but I just can't.
It's one of the ugliest air pistols I've ever seen, and it's extremely uncomfortable on the hand.

That’s tough. Probably my B-3. Paid $20 for it nearly thirty years ago. It was my only air rifle for years. No idea how many thousands of pellets have gone through it. For shear hours of enjoyment it has no rival.
Second place would go to any of my Crosman 1400’s. Paid less than $150 for a couple of them.

Hmm the cheaper they are the more $ i put into them to make them my favorites, under 100 and not needing major mods perhaps, nope I will get back to you on that LOL.

Crosman 1077. When I got two of them, they were $39 at KMart. Crosman Destroyers we’re $2.97/ tin. Still have a ton of them. They’re great when friends stop by to shoot. They’re soda can accurate out the 30 yards and powerful enough to dispatch pests inside that distance.
