It's ok to disagree with me. I can't force you to be right.
While practicing through my scope, I thought about the "cheek weld". My shooting improved drastically when I discovered it was talking about my face.

Well, I’m going to do this all scientifically like. BRS & Co (owner of Daisy, etal) owned Logan’s Roadhouse. I ate there. It was good. Therefore, I predict Crosman will be okay. Maybe with a loaded baked potato.

On a good note...
Both Daisy and Crosman have always had great service and parts departments.... at least in my experiences, I hope this continues with both. But it does beg the question.. what will happen with the Crosman Custom Shop?
Also, will Crosman go to Spain? Oh, and who is going to make all those great shooting pellets that most of our guns shoot well?
Lots of questions to be answered.

Be interesting to see what gets lost in the shuffle.
Will it be the end of some of our favorites?

This is crazy news, I hold neither Daisy nor Gamo in higher esteem than Crosman. I only hope they keep jobs and production in the US, maybe it will work out, fingers crossed.

Keeping customer service staff and staff generally at Crosman will answer my questions for now.

No, It's whose holding company has more cash and has a better plan on how to s*u*c*k the life from the victim. Who cares about the shooter.

Tuesday afternoon while in Walmart I looked at their airgun section. There was one turquoise Daisy kids’ rifle but not a single 880 in stock. That’s the first time I’ve seen them out of the 880.
Probably unrelated. Made me pause, though.
