A couple pretty Daisy's. They're both near 80 years old.

They're both near 80 years old.How does the Buck Jones shoot compared to a model 25?The buck Jones shoots around 315 fps and the 25 shoots at a sweet 350 fps. both feel like they have a strong main spring. I know that the 25 has been shot way more than the Buck Jones..... it has alot of play wear and the B. J. looks like a gun that was taken away by Mom three days after Christmas. Both have gotten the same oil treatment from me. not sure just what the difference means. Stronger spring in the 25 because it has more leverage to cock it??

Boy does that Rochester look familiar?
