Was given this as payment for cleaning a farmhouse basement when I was 15, kept it for ten years.
It is of rolled metal and rivet construction with a wooden stock, which has some kind of logo pressed into it.
It will cock if you hold the trigger "forward" and then when the trigger is pulled you can feel (what i believe is a piston) slowly scrape and shake its way down the length of the barrel. When a .177 bb is loaded DOWN the muzzle after cocking, and the trigger is pulled, the bb will fire out at a "stinging" velocity. Don't ask how i know that...

thinking of SOAKING it in WD-40...

Any thoughts?

Reminds me of some older Daisy's. No idea what it is- but it's a safe bet the only parts you will find for are the ones you make yourself. I might suggest waiting to see if it has any real value before attempting a "fix"- if it is valuable, it is likely going to be more so "as is" than what could end up being a failed repair attempt.
