Nostalgia, rugged and fast shooting for a non-CO2 repeater
Everything else
I got the NRA Centennial version in '71. The spring broke on me once (my fault), other than that it's been completely reliable.
It struggles to break 100fps and sometimes bounces off a carboard box. Accuracy isn't something it aspires to, although it's not quite as bad as my Marksman 1010. Realism isn't its strong suit, either.
I find it's most fun for killing (or rather denting) cans at 15 feet - line up a half dozen, and try to get them as fast as possible. It's not completely useless for "point and shoot" practice.
