It's not a serious "competition" gun.... but it gives pretty good accuracy on 5 meter targets.

It's advertised as the "Official Shooting Education BB Gun" by Daisy. It's geared toward teaching kids the basics of shooting and gun safety.

It has a muzzle velocity of 240 feet per second which makes it about as safe as you can get. It'll still put out an eye but it's not going to do as much damage as a 1,000+ fps. pellet gun when an accident occurs.

It's about $140.
