NOW GET YOUR BB GUN IN
PROPER POSITION
These simple rules will help you hold your rifle correctly.
(Instructions are for a right handed person–reverse for left
handed person.)
1. Grasp the small of the stock with your right hand.
2. Let the forearm rest on the palm of your left hand (or
on the thumb and fingertips if using the N.R.A. standing
position).
3. Place your left elbow as close to directly under your gun
as possible.
4. Place your cheek as far forward on the stock as possible
without straining and press gently against the stock.
5. Now make sure your Daisy still points effortlessly at the
center of the target. To make sure, close your eyes and
point it where you think the target is. If, when you open
your eyes, the gun is pointing away from the center of the
target, shift your body to correct. Repeat until naturally
centered.
6. Prepare to squeeze the trigger with the first joint of your
first (index) finger. But don't fire yet!
AIMING (OR SIGHTING)
A Daisy will shoot where you aim it. The trick is holding
the proper sight picture. To do this, think about a lollipop.
Then make the front sight the lollipop stick, and the bullseye
the candy! Keep the top of the lollipop stick even with the top
of the rear sight and centered in the V notch.
Try sighting. Then check what you see against the sight
pictures above.
To be a consistent marksman, use the correct sight
picture each time you fire the gun, and remember - sight or
point the gun only in a safe direction.

A DAISY BB GUN IS NOT
FOR HUNTING
It's a target-shooting gun. But it teaches you the skill and
safety habits you'll need for hunting.
Or, you might prefer preparing yourself for match target
shooting. Many adult gun owners do.

HOW TO BECOME AN EXPERT
MARKSMAN
If you learn the techniques, and practice regularly, you
can become a real marksman.
Marksmanship will provide you with a lot of enjoyment all
your life. The tips you'll pick up in this book will get you start-
ed. But you'll learn faster by getting some help from an adult
who is an experienced shooter.
POSITIONS
There are four basic rifle shooting positions and two vari-
ations of each. Learn them all so you will be prepared for any
shooting conditions. The positions are prone, sitting, kneel-
ing, and standing.
Half face to the right before getting into any position.
Then:
PRONE - Lie at an angle of about 5 to 15 degrees to the
line of fire. The left leg should be completely relaxed. The
right leg should angle away from the spine and may be bent
or straight.
KNEELING - Half face to the right, then drop to the right
knee. In the low position, the left foot should be extended as
far forward as is comfortable, while the right leg is flat on the
ground with foot flat and rotated inward, with shooter sitting
on side of right foot. In the high position, the shooter sits on
his right heel.
SITTING - In the low position, cross your legs in front of
you with the outside of each foot resting on the ground and
supporting the knees. Elbows should be placed near the
knees forming triangles to support the rifle. legs are not
crossed in the high position. The feet are well spread, with
the heels braced, and the body leaning forward so the elbows
may be braced over the knees.
STANDING - In the Army standing position, half face to
the right with feet spread about a foot apart. Stand relaxed,
not rigid. The right elbow should be at about the same height
as the shoulder. Your left arm does not touch your body.
In the N.R.A. standing position, you may rest your left
upper arm against your body on your hip.
