I just took the opportunity to rework a severely damaged model 95. The barrel was dented and bent about half way down and the shot tube was missing the muzzle cap. I was able to cut the barrel, add a piece from a pop gun, and shorten the shot tube, adding the muzzle cap from a messed up model 25. The lesson? Don't throw away all of the broken Daisy's. Fixing them doesn't always mean keeping them original.
BTW, yes, it shoots great! |

Got them, Thanks, I have the same problem.
Nice looking job. How long is it? Looks like a handy sized one. Especially like the ventilated pop gun muzzle. Gary

Thanks Gary. Barrel is 14 3/8. OAL is 32 1/4. The forestock is a cut down Red Ryder. Lol. I have no clue where the mount for the spotting scope came from. I just thought it would look cool! |
