Pros & Cons
Pros
A word of advice. It's lightweight, reliable, accurate and pretty crisp on velocity. Worth every penny spent.
I shoot with 7 pumps and it really has nice muzzle velocity. Is easier to pump than my old crosman 760 was, and seems to have higher velocity. She is able to pump it easily and dispatch of cans at 15 yards right out of the box, with bb's!
The gun is extremely quiet too. Zeroing the scope took some patience and getting used to squeezing pellets into the chamber is. My only complaint so far is more because i'm old now, i have a hard time loading the chamber with that tiny lil pellet in t... Read More
Cons
What a pos china copy of a once good gun. Returned to amazon and back to researching. Is it the perfect gun for a young shooter to hone their skills cheaply?
Highlights
Quality
Although some of the parts that daisy made of metal originally they have all been very durable, dependable and very accurate.
Overall great gun, easy to pump considering its ridiculous speed.
Able to shoot through a pop can at 20 yards, with only five pumps.
After finally getting the sights adjusted, the screw was incredibly tight, it's shooting straight.
Price
The price for 500 is quite the bargain at the current time, and have been very accurate in our rifle.
For the price, this one is really hard to beat.

I just cleaned and replaced the seals on a 1984 daisy 880 and it shoots as good as brand new.
Sadley, i find that these 880's are more accurate than my $300 hatsan and gamo break barrel air rifles.
Just remember it shoots bb's as well but they won't produce the same accuracy as the pellets.
