Title: Daisy Model 880 variation and Daisy dating info
Post by: cobalt327 on December 15, 2018, 03:08:32 AM
HERE (http://forum.daisymuseum.com/daisy-model-880-dating-and-variation-info_topic8044.html) is info on some of the changes made to the 880 and approximately when they came about. There's gaps that will be filled as I find more info. Besides the members at the Daisy Talk forum being a good bunch of folks, I'm using Daisy Talk because I expect to be adding info for quite some time and there's no time limit to editing there. Thanks to everyone who took the time to answer questions about their 880s- without you this would not have been possible.

HERE (http://forum.daisymuseum.com/topic8040_post34623.html#34623) is a link to a second thread with info on using the REG. and LOT NO.s for dating a Daisy.

If anyone has anything they'd like to add, feel free to post it or PM me.

Just saved all your info to my desk top .. great valuable Daisy 880 info.

Also my year 2004 880 that had one stock screw has a flat piston ... when did the flat pistons stop and the new style begin ? Also the butt plate says Daisy .. not Powerline or Powerking ?

Thank you very much.

Should be a sticky !!

Thanks(http://www.chevelles.com/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)

Info on internal differences and changes made to the 880 has been a bit hard to come by. I actually omitted the internal info for that reason- the sample population is so scant that there's several years between the differences, which makes the info a lot less useful. Hopefully I will get enough info to fill in the gaps enough to make it worthwhile.

For the flat top piston question, I have the following (have added your gun to it):
So sometime between 2004 and 2013 the pistons got a dish. That's a 9 year gap! haha
