Amazon has the Daisy Red Ryder BB Rifle for $30 with free shipping. Features a smooth bore, steel barrel, lever action, 650 shot capacity and shoots up to 350 feet per second. You'll shoot yer eye out, kid.
According to the Daisy Air Rifle manufacturers on the Special Edition DVD documentary on the history of the Red Ryder BB Gun, the gun did exist except for one error in the story: The gun did not have a compass and sundial as mentioned in the movie. According to the historians, writer Jean Shepard confused the Red Ryder gun with another rifle that did have those features. But because the story and screen play were scripted to have the compass and sundial, guns had to be specially made for the movie.
The real house used during filming can be found at 3159 W 11th Street in Cleveland, Ohio. Pictures and a "Street View" of the house can be seen on Google Maps. A nearby street that intersects with W. 11th St is Clark Avenue.
@Solow. You can get these year round at B&M stores year round. Basspro has a pink one too. The online price is the same but IIRC I got a flyer selling them for $25, either color.
These things are not toys, but they are weak as BB guns. Besides nostalgia, I don't see why anyone would want one. Buy a BB pistol for $40-$50 and have way more fun.
The 1200 fps break barrel ones are as powerful as a 22.. This might be a good cheap substitute for a paint ball gun. Still can cause some pain, smaller welts, but won't kill anyone.
We had BB Gun fights all the time as kids. Wore my dad's welder's mask and my catcher's chest protector/shin guards. after that, you had to double up the blue jeans and sweatshirts. it still hurt like h^ll to get hit, but it prepared me for Desert Storm!!
You'll shoot your eye out!
you'll shoot your nuts off
If it don't kill ya, it makes ya stronger, half blind, but stronger!
Strangely I have known two people who lost sight in one of their eyes due to BB gun accidents. Guess the quote is based in fact...
The Quote, is "You'll shoot your eye out kid." Stupid f |_|cks.
They probably only sell these once a year when TBS runs that movie.
No compass in the stock = no deal.
It doesn't meet Ralphie's description...

That's big talk for a one eyed fat man.
I almost shot my eye out when I was target practicing at the wood pile, ricochet back and hit me in the cheek right below my eye
Cool
Sweet!

#12 I meant actually sell them, not offer them for sale.
