Just paid for one, should be here in a few days. Looked to be in good shape so hoping for the best.
Does anyone here know what I should expect for MV from a 107 in good shape?

Do you know the age of the gun?

No, I sure don't. Seller said the Reg. No. is A022586.

I'm sure it has rubber seals and they are likely dried out some. Oil will help but they won't swell like leather would. I'd be surprised if it shot harder than 300 fps and probably alot less. Keep us in the loop.
Good luck!!!

Took delivery this morning. Shoots a little under 300 fps. I confirmed the Reg. No. does have an "A" suffix and it's a Plymouth gun so was happy to see that. According to Gary Garber's encyclopedia, that makes it one of the less common 107s.
Some close up photos to try to show the condition: |

Nice find! from the wear on the pump guide, looks like it was hardly shot.

Very nice find indeed. If you're interested in making a few dollars on it email me. I have a pump gun display that is missing very few since the inception of the King #5 and this particular one is missing.
The bottom Buck Jones is for sale, so that frees up one spot. Yours would go where it is now. |

Thanks Mark, I appreciate it. It's a chronological history of the Daisy pump gun. From top to bottom...

My Ranger is a variant that he had not yet seen. And of course an A coded, Plymouth manufacture, #107.

Very nice collection/display.
Thanks for the pictures and list of guns. I don't know how they sold any of these. They are very had to cock compared to the 25. I thought the first Buck Jones I bought was broke (as did the person I bought if from) until I realized you had to pull back really hard to get it to cock. Gay
