They are a lot of fun. I'm going to do a video later on how fast it will shoot. I know they say up to 800 FPS, but I'd like to see. Thanks for watching!
I've owned 880's since I was kid too, back in the '70's. We always used them for squirrel hunting and they were just great. There is no need to throw it away if it quits working or starts to leak. The 880 is very easy to re-seal and parts are available from Daisy and other sources all over the internet. I've had my current 880 since 2012 and so far it's never needed any work, still functions perfectly. Just keep it oiled but not too much, and store it cocked but not loaded or pumped. This keeps the exhaust valve closed and pressure off the valve spring. If it's left un-cocked, the valve spring is under compression, and sometimes sticks and won't snap the valve shut when you cock it, causing immediate leaking. If that happens and the gun won't hold air, or leaks, just cock and fire repeatedly without pumping, this should free up the valve stem again, it usually works. But to avoid all that, just store it cocked and unloaded, and not pumped up.

That's good to know. Thanks for watching!
