Good Points: VERY accurate. Quick Reloading. Feels great in the hands. Nice 'Mossy Oak' Stock..
Bad Points: Low Power. The Scope it comes with can be a pain. Can be a little unreliable.
General comments: Overall, its an amazing gun (For a first time shooter).
It feels a little plasticy when you first hold it, but don't let that fool you. This gun packs a pretty decent punch for your first gun and I find it to be amazingly accurate.
From about thirty feet I can blow a hole through a full soda can.
This was my first gun and I still pick it up all the time.
The cocking/pumping system lasts a life time (As long as you take care of it).
The decent sized BB capacity (350) means you don't spend all day reloading when you could be shooting.
The Fibre Optic Sight is great.
This gun is great as a Starter gun.
If you are looking for a nice accurate rifle that will last then this is the rifle for you.
I love this gun for close range Plinking and such.
8/10

For a low power, low cost air rifle, this is a great value. Have several air & CO2 rifles, including the Crosman Pumpmaster 760 & 1077 and this is the most accurate of the lot. Against Daisy's recommendations, this rifle is routinely pumped up to four or five times and it still works as if it were brand new. Several years old at this point-- still kicking.

Great first gun. BARRLE break guns are jealous of this 840. I got this 840 when I was 9 years old, I'm 33 and it still shoots the same. Save yourself the research and time and just get this gun. Later on you can get something with more power.

Going to buy a new one to see how it compares with my 1979 model which i believe was one of the first made?.
Accurate for a bb gun
quick reloading
durable 29yrs(zillions of bb's) and counting

I have two of these for my kid's they make a good first air gun.
easy to shoot with bb's I was surprised at how good it shot pellets as no riflings could get one hole groups at 25 ft.
I got this for the kid but find I enjoy shooting it my self.
Good for nice quite plinking can's in the back yard.

I had this gun for a bit and I love it because its so easy to use and it looks even better. Its great for the target shooter or beginner who wants a little more fun. I thought it would be cheap and brittle because of the plastic but it is actually VERY durable and comfortable. I was also surprised at how easy the scope was to put on and use. I recommend this gun to everyone.

I cannot call myself an expert on air guns, but do own some pellet and bb guns. I think this gun worth a try if you are not demanding or I should say it is great for beginners.
I have never use pellets on the 840 since I think it is a waste at around 325fps only. The BBs work great for me on the 840.
I have a Crosman Pumpmaster 760 before, but it has "retired" due to the worn-out valves. Since the 760 is not available in Hong Kong anymore. Without option, I got the 840 to replace the 760. ...

As a first time airgun, this Daisy Grizzly 840 served me well. It came with a crooked scope, which means quality control is non-exsistent. After mounting this scope, I soon found that the mounting hardware cracked the mount. I moved it forward, more gentle this time. It still showed fractures, manufacturing tolerances are loose, as demonstrated by the pump arm and stock. While sturdy, the stock has a noticeable line where stock meets receiver (which is plactic, btw). The pump arm wobbles with ea ...

This Daisy Grizzly 840 is a nice good value for the money kid gun. All my kid enjoy shooting it. I would not let my kid's hunt with this gun to weak. But a great back yard plinker and target shooter. I enjoy shooting it my self.

We have an older model Daisy Grizzly 840. I purchased this little gun about 13 years ago, and there is little if any change as compared to the new 840 grizzly! Glad some things are made that good so no need for change. Best I can say, is this little gun does just what it is suppose to do!

This gun is good for the younger because of it's safe low power and easy handling. You don't have to waste your time by loading BB after BB due to the BB repeater, which comes in handy. But if you plan on hunting then you should think of another gun because this gun can barely kill small birds with a headshot. But if this is for a child who wants a gun to improve aiming and wants to work up to a better gun then I recommend this gun highly.

Nice to have the opportunity to say something here since I purchased the Daisy Grizzly 840 air rifle via a hard time making decision, after all, not easy to get stuffs like this here, in Taiwan. ^_^ Do envy you guys here in America, I mean it. Oh and, the value for money got only 5 because price of this second-handed 840 was about 155 US dollars...amazing, wasn't it?
Well, this second-handed 840 came to me with its multi-pump kit already assembled. I must say, it serves my need even with jus ...
