    There is an easier way. If you simply take a brown paper sack. Twist the open end up and fasten to the eve of the area being attacked. It is a easy way of simulating a hornets nest. You will not have them drilling near that area again

    My son and I like to use a short stick of 1" pvc,the ping that they make when hit is fun to hear.

    Finding another Daisy pump might be difficult and if you do find one it might be wore out too. I'd look into refurbishing it, might need to just replace a rubber gasket to get it work again.

    Thanks everyone for comments.
    KenDive came through with a very nice Model 25 that almost looks new.

    Had one as a kid and happy to latch on to another one.

    Thanks Ken and Thanks GCGF!

    Your Welcome and it was nice meeting you. :)

    My grandfather gave me a Model 25 for Christmas when I was about 6, around 1961. I went thru literally tens of thousands of BBs in that gun.
    Dad sold it at a yard sale when I was away at college.
    Daisy has come out with special edition 25s a couple of times in the past 30 years and I bought one of those.
    My grandfather had an old one with the wooden stock. No idea what happened to it.
