How to Load a 1970 Daisy Pump BB Gun

Hold your 1970 Daisy Model 25 BB gun upside down with the muzzle of the barrel facing away from you and the butt of the rifle against your leg or hip. Unscrew the magazine from its location underneath the barrel, holding it tightly to make sure that the magazine does not drop out of your hands and spill.

Remove the magazine from its position under the barrel. Once the magazine is removed, locate the hole through which the BBs are loaded into the magazine. The hole should be on the end of the magazine itself.

Pour 0.177 caliber BBs into the hole in the magazine. Watch the BBs carefully to ensure that nothing enters the magazine that could affect the performance of the magazine loading action, such as dirt, small rocks or misshapen BBs. Even a small piece of debris can lock up the operation of the entire mechanism and, depending on the severity of the jam, could even require the entire weapon to be disassembled by a professional.

Reinsert the magazine into its position under the barrel of the BB gun. The best way to accomplish this is to hold the gun in the same position that was used to remove the magazine, upside down with the muzzle of the barrel facing away from you. Twist the magazine as your reinsert it until it locks into place.
