Barra 1886 MSP pellet rifle.  Looks like a Henry, but mostly made of plastic.  I wasn't expecting much, and really only bought it because of the video posted here, and the fact that my local Walmart had them for $59 and change.  It pumps a lot like a Daisy 880, which is to say, very easy, and non-progressive.  I expected a pretty toy that I could let the kids shoot, so they felt like they were shooting a "real gun." It has decent heft, but could probably benefit from filling the stock to give it some balance and weight.  What I didn't expect was the accuracy!  I don't know where they sourced their barrels, and frankly I don't care, but this thing is surprisingly accurate for a $60 plastic gun.  (And, it's really pretty!)

Bought on a whim, but just might become a keeper.

It is pretty enough to hang on the wall isn't it.

i have been reading many post about pellet gun shooters getting a real kick out of shooting BB's rifle

there was a post on another forum about the Crosman 760 and i thought if that was good a Crosman 1000 legacy could even be better and of course your cowboy gun

if it shoots we like it, just big kids i guess 

there is nothing wrong with cheap fun

@marflow I'm with you on that one Mike. I love the joy and fun that a $80 pumper brings as much as a $800 Springer
