You know your BB or Pellet gun had some street cred....if it could go through one side of a metal trash can.

The kid I sent home crying was named Kevin. I'd hear a little p-tump and a couple seconds later I'd feel the hit. I finally saw him hiding behind a log. He had that thing elevated like a mortar. I took him across the chest. Game over.

The older 760's had wood stocks and forearms. Shot a lot of starlings with one of those around grandpa's chicken coop.

The new ones are plastic.

Anybody know if a rebuild kit is available for the older ones? I have grandpa's old one but it won't hold air.

I opened mine on Christmas morning 1980.... My dad showed me how load it and all the safety things. I promptly turned around and shot my sister right in the left sitting cheek. My dad then took that gun and proceeded to break it over my back. Had it all of 3 minutes.

Any speedloaders? Pour the BBs in your mouth and spray them down the tube.

Older kids always had the more powerful BB guns...young guys would aim and shoot and have to pick up their bb...cuz it rolled out of the barrel.
We stopped playing when one kid got pegged in the head...pellet gun.

Those old Benjamins packed some punch when pumped up tight, not a lot different than a .22.
