Owning and shooting bb guns is an American tradition that stretches back more than 100 years. Since the bb gun’s inception, thousands of different designs and models of bb guns have emerged, each with different purposes, strengths, and weaknesses. So here’s a list I compiled of bb guns I would recommend for what you’re trying to do with the gun.
1.
Daisy® Model 74 CO2 BB Rifle
The Daisy Model 74 is a great bb gun for beginner shooters and those that are just looking to plink cans off the porch. It shoots rather slow at just 300fps and uses a Co2 cartridge as a propellant, so you are not going to kill any varmints with this gun.
2.
Crosman® DPMS® SBR Full-Auto Air Rifle
The Crosman DPMS is a great gun to use if you want to enjoy some full-auto action without having to go to the gun range. It can fire over 1000 bb’s per minute and shoots approximately 430 fps. So again, you’re not going to kill anything with this gun, it is mainly meant for fun and target shooting.
3.
Daisy® Boy Scouts of America® Air Rifle
The Daisy Boy Scouts Air Rifle is a bb gun that can double as a hunting rifle or just simple target shooting. It can fire either bb’s or pellets, pellets being more appropriate for hunting, and bb’s being more appropriate for can shooting. It is a great gun to kill varmints with in addition to letting the kids go out and shoot cans with bb’s.
4.
Gamo® Swarm Whisper® 10X Air Rifle
The final gun in the list is the Gamo Swarm Whisper and its sole purpose is to kill any varmint that you do not want on your property. It shoots .22 caliber pellets an astounding 975 feet per second and comes with a 4X32 precision scope. This means you can put precision shots on any varmint over a very long distance.
