Hello Folks!
When I was a kid and shooting air rifles (end 1950's early 60's), a buddy had a Daisy pump BB Gun. The darn thing shot pretty strong for this type. It had a magazine tube under the barrel (if I remember correctly) and you pumped the thing once to cock it. Like a pump shotgun.
Does anyone know which Model it was?
Greetings, and thanks in advance.

My bet it is was a model 25. This one has a hinged pump action. The pump handle rides on a thin rod below the barrel and the cocking linkage is jointed so that it points down into a "V" when the handle is pulled back. They did make another that was supposed to be like a Remington rifle. I tried one at a gun show and it was really hard to pump. Went straight back. Those are much less common, so search on Daisy Model 25. They've been making it since around 1915.

Correct!
Thanks RedFeather!
I was enthused to see the pics of the gun I remember, the one with the "elbow" cocking mechanism. It was a good and accurate, strong shooter.
