Leaver Action Pellet Rifle?
« on: February 24, 2010, 06:16:23 AM »
When I was a kid back in the 70's I had a leaver action bb/pellet rifle that used a 5 shot disc.  The disc was placed in the side of the barrel up in the forearm area of the gun.  (IIRC)  I think that the gun was a Daisy, but am not 100% sure. 

I have been looking for this gun on the web, but have had no luck.  Can anyone here help me out?

I appreciate any help/info that you could give me.

Thanks!

No, it wasn't like that at all.  (That is a cool looking rifle!)  Mine had a red disc ( I think that it came with two).  I think that you had to manually turn the disc after each shot.  The rifle had a simple wooden stock like a lot of Daisy air rifles.

I think that I found it.  I believe it to be the Daisy Model 400 Featherweight.  If anyone has any pics or info on this rifle I would appreciate you passing it on.

Thanks again!
