The 1938 B Christmas story Red Ryder BB gun was only produced in 1984 and had a large compass in the stock. The collectors who have them will not part with them. In new condition they are worth around $450 conservatively.

Daisy has a very screwy and unusual way of numbering air guns and rifles. Example: Model 111-B American Youth. Boy holding first Daisy on side mfg 1998 Model 111 Western Carbine 700 shot plastic stock mfg 1963-78 No 111 Western Carbine 700 shot plastic stock mfg 1963-78 No 111 Model 40 Red Ryder, 8 different variations of this model then it became the 1938 Red Ryder model in 1975. Notice the KEY words "No" verses "Model" Confused enough, So is everyone else. There is NO model 111 40, But don't tell Daisy they may want to make one.
