    Those are some fine old guns. I had a C02 Daisy BB repeater around '69 or '70 but it didn't look like Draco's. Here is my old Webley Tempest .22 pellet springer I've had for at least 35 years. I am attempting to fabricate a bracket to mount this little $10 laser sight I got from China on eBay.

    Thanks.
    i think the reason your CO2 daisy repeater is it was redesigned after mine as the CO2 200, they do look a bit different.
    I have a laser sight i some times put on crosman 1377's i found clamps that crosman made for one of there scopes but i found i can jam the screws in place for a normal scope rail.
    I have a ruger branded black hawk pellet rifle that is a breakdown type, that cocks the main spring, it came with a normal scope so i look a larger cheap Chinese green laser pointer, found that it was a hunk of crap, the beam was weak and mode hopping at 5mw, so i took it apart and found the laser was the head of a laser pointer so i replaced it with a module i had on hand, it looks silly but it works 5
    the part in front of the trigger guard, is that where you are going to put the pointer at?

    In the photo, the laser is just sitting where I hope to mount it. The front plastic stock isn't strong or rigid enough so I will try to utilize the pins in the frame for the trigger and sear replacing the press fit pins with screws. Two flat pieces attached to either side of the frame and a thicker rail to clamp the laser to. The laser also came with a pressure switch but I will be able to operate the slide switch with my trigger finger and thumb.

    yeah mine came with a side trigger too but i prefer to just leave it on, the new module in it is at 25mw with out me doing anything to it, it's really funny
    some times people intentionally put as much stuff on a rifle as possible to make it as unpractical as possible, i held my tongue at one time at a firing range , i was just shooting my ruger 10/22 rim fire and the guy had an optical scope, green laser and i think a flash light on .22 cal pistol, he saw i was using normal ammo, he had a lighter "stinger" that's .22 long rifle and they suck, i looked at his target though my scope and i think he may have hit the paper, i almost said that i latest hit my target, it was comical, but for just for fun i am amazed you can't attach a Swiss army knife to some part of the gun. i may need to invent that, lol
    with the air guns you can have a ton of fun just inside your yard, or inside with a pellet trap, a box of poly-fill works very well

    I confirmed the date on my crosman 101 air rifle it's from 1938-39
    the crosman 1377 pump hand gun with out the stock added is from 1979
    for crosman the first 3-4 numbers of ther serial are the date, the first 2 are the month and the last 2 are the year, so the 679 on mine is June 1979
