The quiet competition means you can hear them sweat.

"Daisy, Daisy, give me your answer do". The fading words of "HAL 9000" in "2001, a Space Odyssey". I have an answer for you HAL: the Daisy will SHOOT! I shot it for the first time last night at the OKC Gun Club in Production with a Holosun red dot sight. 40 with a 39 re-entry to get me qualified for the upcoming state match. Missed a stinking turkey. Also shot a 40 UAS (Morini) and consequently lost to Jim Fields in a shoot off.
The plastic bolt is a stinker and the trigger is, shall I say, rather horrid but, I have lots of spare parts (as does Daisy). Had a good time for sure.

Took the Production championship at the first International Championship match with AIR in Tusco in 2002 with my 747, 77X80. Great shooter. Also, took the Unlimited with an IZH 46M with a 79 missing a turkey. Hence the handle 19 Turkeys! :)

Good handle under the circumstances! It's always those rotten turkeys, is it not?!!
For shoot-offs at the OKC matches turkeys are placed at 18 yards and they must be hit in the head. Easy-peasy for a Morini IF you can stop your heart! :))
I'm still trying to sort out front aperture size on my IZZY for Unlimited.
