Hello,

 I found this BB gun in my father's attic. Could someone tell me if it is a Daisy or if not what it is? There is no manufacturer mark. As the attached photo shows it has engraved/molded animals including an elk, near the trigger and barrel. It also has engraved/molded "1900" near the wood stock. Would appreciate any information at all, age, manufacturer etc. Thanks

Maria

Maria,

I didn't get the picture, but it could be a  Heilprin 1900.

It was made around the late 1890's and early 1900's.

It is a gun that many collectors would like to have.

Someone may be able to add more details.

Thanks bavaria55n, that was helpful. Still having trouble identifying the rifle. I found a Columbia Heilprin 1895 on an auction site. So far that is all I have been able to find. The 1895 looks a great deal like the one I have. Can you recommend any websites etc where I could get more information? Is Columbia the manufacturer? I could find no information on a Columbia gun manufacturer. Once again thanks.

Maria
