I love my baikal mp-61. It is technically a cheap gun, but is a little hard to find right now. Though it is ugly as sin, when you pick it up it just feels right. Also, it is very accurate and the ability to quickly reload is a plus.
HW 30 urban pro from AOA $500 it’s scooe mounts for $500. That’s cheap for what you get. Wish I had my old daisy BB gun from back in the early sixties but the HW is the least expensive of my recent purchases
I haven’t seen a nicely made BB gun like you used to be able to buy. Real junk today
I bought a Hatsan AT44 W .22cal 4 or 5 yrs ago. Paid $450 for it from PA, and it turned out to be an excellent gun. It shoots just as good as some of my $1000 guns. Its a little on the heavy side, but a good shooter none the less. You don't always have to pay a lot to get a lot.
I have s Hatsan Flash carbine in .22. I paid $250 on sale and put a cheap UTG scope on it. Lightweight, powerful, great trigger and dead nuts accurate. I just love that little gun .It can hang with anything I own.
I would have to add the Grizzly Scout. $39 new I paid for it and i put on a Ruger Scope 4X32. Shoot 10 meters and it is bang on with one ragged hole every time. I did open it up and put a 3/4 piece cut to 1/2 inch of electrical pvc conduit behind the spring for a deep thud instead of a twang. I always amazes me and shoots just a touch under 500FPS . Pistol has to be my two P17's.
I have a Crosman .22 Nitro Venom in a wood stock I bought several years ago, package deal with a scope. Probably have shot it well over 10k shots and treated it poorly. Still shoots accurate and hits hard
Gotta vote for the Daisy 880. $29 refurbished, and can hold sub-1" groups at 25 yards using cheap cphp pellets. Once I actually managed a 0.75" 9-shot group at 34 yards (but only once). Still, for $29 you can't go wrong.
Crosman F4 for $79 from Wallyworld. Admittedly though, I have more into it than that with scope, mount, tweaks, time, etc. But it loves lobbing H&N FTT's downrange with great accuracy.
a Crosman 760 taught both of my kids rifle etiquette on that gun when they were 5 and 6 years old. It's at my daughter's house now she still shoots it. 686 ft per second on 10 pumps. Little bugger is accurate and just a ton of fun
