Went out and found my first headstamps (Western Xpress 12 & 2 Peters Victor 20)

However....

The find of the day was definitely the Daisy Air Rifle we found! We did a little research and believe it to be circa 1930

That's a Daisy Model 25. Designed in about 1915 by Fred LeFevre of LeFevre shotgun fame. Daisy bought the design and made it from the 20's to recent times. Might still be made, not sure. The rifle is a take-down. Remove the big screw on the left side and it come apart in 2 pieces. It was a hard shooting gun. I have 4 of them, one from 1941 that was my uncle's. Gary
