Wally World has these this year: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.th.../27/daisy-christmas-story-red-ryder/amp/Picked one up for $25. Yes, it’s made in China..... Oh, and it DOES have a metal lever, not the el cheapo plastic lever that everyone hated. Buy 5-10 of ‘em and give them to kids whose parents hate guns. Really pizz ‘em off...

I carry one in the truck
I get out and shake it at my dogs so they won’t follow me to the back fields.

I keep my Red Ryder barrel-up in the shed. That way the squirrels can't hear the BBs slide down the magazine when you put it to your shoulder. They run when they hear that sound.
Got one the other day that did an actual back flip on a phone wire.

Wow! Good price. They're $61.00 on Amazon. Yeah. Sure, they’re made in China, but they’re honest to Gawd wood and steel, for $25. Things will last 30-50 years. Plus, kinda neat that these actually have the compass and sundial on the stock. For this price, they’d even be a cool cheap gift for ADULT friends.. Don’t see them ONLINE at Walmart, but they had a whole center isle display of them there, today. Only $25 at mine.. https://www.ssusa.org/articles/2020/10/26/new-special-edition-daisy-christmas-dream-red-ryder-bb-gun

They don't seem to have the power as the one I had as a kid. I picked up one a year or two ago and it is pretty sad.

My wife brought one home today as a gift for her step-dad. He's a big fan of the movie these are marketed towards.

I have one. Call it my goose gun. Use it chase geese out of the yard when they come off the lake channel into my yard.

The wife brought one home about twenty years ago. Some kind of commemorative or something. Never did take it out of the box and it's still up on the closet shelf just waiting for her to make a thousand dollars off of it.
I could wish a lot of things on my worst enemy but neuropathy ain't one of them.

Big cardboard display in center isle in front of sporting goods. “Christmas Wish” Edition. The silliest thing is, I had to call over an employee to get BB’s.... Morons keep them in a locked glass case.... Ten feet away, they’ve got shotgun ammo sitting on an open shelf.
