Description
This Daisy Model 99 Champion is a lever-action BB air rifle chambered in .177 caliber, specifically designed as a youth marksmanship training tool. The rifle features a blued metal finish on the receiver and barrel shroud, complemented by a solid wood stock and forearm. It is equipped with a hooded front sight and an adjustable rear peep sight, and it comes fitted with a tan canvas sling. Key markings on the barrel specify the manufacturer and model designation as Daisy MODEL 99 B-B GUN ROGERS, ARKANSAS U.S.A. The left side of the receiver is prominently marked with 99 Champion inside a decorative banner graphic, and it features a small gold-colored medallion marked Quality Products Daisy Since 1882. A yellow manufacturer’s label titled IMPORTANT NOTICE is affixed to the right side of the buttstock. Note – As an air rifle, this item does not require a background check.
Condition report:
The metal components exhibit a blued finish with minor wear and paint loss along the edges of the receiver and the cocking lever. The wooden stock and forearm show significant signs of use, including numerous scratches, dings, and scattered areas of finish loss. The sights appear to be in good working order. The action appears to function correctly, though the air rifle has not been function-tested for velocity or air seal integrity. The canvas sling is intact with some light soiling consistent with age.
