I have a NIB BB gun made by Daisy, according to the box.
It's called the Winchester Model 1894 Legendary Lever Action Carbine Air Rifle. According to the specs listed on the box it has a MV of 300 fps.
Anybody know if these are still made or the worth of them?
Thanks,
beefan

If you have the gun I think you have they have not been made for many years and do have a little collectors value. I have no idea how much they are worth.
I got one as a kid around 1969 or 1970. They are almost an identical copy of the 94 and are hard to tell from the real gun at a glance. I wore mine out years ago, but found one in a gunshop about 15 or 20 years ago that was identical to the one I had as a kid and paid $50 for mine then. Mine is the Buffalo Bill Scout edition with silver colored reciever and a saddle ring with leather thong. They also made a standard version with a blued reciever and no special engraving.
I no longer have my box and we may be talking about different guns. I have not seen another one like mine in years.

I had a lever action Daisy back in the early 70's that makes me wonder if it is the same. Like all of them back then, all metal construction. I remember there was a slide at the end of the fore stock between the barrel and tube that you would slide forward and it would hold ten BB's from the reservoir. You were than able to shoot 10 shots fast as you could lever from any position. I remember I considered mine big stuff compared to my friends Red Rider, LOL.

Yes, that is the same gun I have. You load 40-50 BB's through the loading port just like a 94, then 10 would go into the spring loaded magazine. No need to hold the barrel up while cocking. Even had a hammer like the Winchester. Lowering the hammer made it safe, pull back to fire, just like a real gun.

Thanks, all, for the replys and information. Guess I'll take it to the next gun show or maybe list it here in the classified.
