Subject: Intro and question on 2202 magazine
Posted: May-16-2012 at 11:31pm

Picked up one 2202 on Mon, and the other today.  The one on Mon is missing the rear sight, and the butt plate.  Cost, $40, some time, and 2-3 gallons of gas.
The one today is missing the trigger group detente pin, spring, and clip; have a lead where I can get all three.  Then just have to figure how to put them in, probably just take the buttstock off, no biggie.  Cost, $39, $30 shipping - which included a very nice hard case that wasn't mentioned before, and $20 for my FFL guy.  $89 in hand.  So total for the two, $129, in hand, plus the gas.  You just have to have patience, and keep looking.   
Both have magazines, and the actions/bolts just as they are supposed to.  Oh yes, both in very nice condition, with the exception of a bit of paint off here and there, I'm thinking the best repair for that is a black magic marker.  I'll be trying that as soon as I find my marker.  Strange, both stocks are plastic, but one is woodish colored, and the other is black. 
 
My son gave me a lead on some Ruger magazines, for around $4-5 each.  I hope to have one in a few days, then I'll see if I can get it to fit - and work.  Will keep you advised.

Posted: May-16-2012 at 10:14am

New guy here - and I need some help - why does this 499B have plain sights.

I recently purchased a very used Daisy 499B.  It looks just like my Newer 499B except: (1) it does not have a rear peep sight it has an iron notch rear sight (2) the front sight is not hooded it is a regular post (3) there is no coin in the wood stock.  Otherwise it is a true 499 style rifle - single shot muzzle loader with plastic safety.
 
I have never seen a 499B with regular iron sights like this one.  They are welded in, and the barrel is definately molded for these sights.
 
Is this a special edition or maybe both types of guns were offered at some time?  What was the reason for this? Afterall, the 499B was a target rifle.
 
The gun is imprinted: Model 499B  Daisy Rogers AR USA
B-B Cal(4.5mm) Steel Air Gun Shot
 
Thanks for any help.

My wife and I visited the musuem in Rogers yesterday and it stirred memories of all of the Daisys I have had over the years. I remembered this old Daisy toy gun I have from my youth so went and found it in the shop. I can't remember for sure but I think it was from the early to mid 70's. It is mostly white with a red stock, cocking lever and what is probably supposed to be a flash arrestor on the end of the barrel. It also had some blue writing that has now faded.  The barrel is stamped with

DAISY MODEL 1011 (could be 4011)
ROGERS ARKANSAS, USA
Divison VICTOR
COMPTOMETER CORPORATION
 
I didn't see anything like it in the museum but I would really like to know what it is. Any help is appreciated.

If the #107 is stamped over the #105, it is a 1st variation. You should be able to faintly see a number 5 stamped where the 7 is.]]> Mon, 14 May 2012 19:11:10 +0000 http://forum.daisymuseum.com/buck-jones_topic4725_post14048.html#14048 Buy & Sell : BUCK JONES http://forum.daisymuseum.com/buck-jones_topic4725_post14047.html#14047 Author: BOOKBINDER10

I know this inquiry is a year later, but would this Daisy still be available?  My eight year old son's Model 660 was just broken when he loaned it to a "friend" and I would really like to be able to find a replacement . . .
