I bought a Daisy No 100 model 38 yesterday for $35 off craigslist. It still shoots and is in pretty good shape. I understand they were made from 1938 until around 1954 or so (maybe with a break in between). I can't find a ton of info on this gun online-- I found Tom Gaylords blog about it at Pyramid, he states it may be worth around $100 (at least in 2007). I see one selling on auctionarms and gunbroker for $75 and $275 which is a pretty wide gap. For some reason I cannot find this gun listed in the couple of year old copy of the Airgun blue book either. So I'm interested in:
1) How to accurately date this rifle.
2) Realistic present day value. I assume it's closer to $75/$100 then the $275 being asked on Gunbroker.
Any pointers would be appreciated.
Thx!

You might check on this BB gun owners forum. There are some very knowledgeable BB gun folks there.

Here's a link to a vintage airgun forum. A lot of discussions on vintage European springers, but you can usually find some useful info there as well. :)

There is a site called http://www.bbairguns.com that has a lot of BB gun info and an auction, but lately the site hasn't been working. I miss it.

Thanks, I'll check both of those.
