This "American Rifleman Television" segment explores the history and features of the Daisy Buck Jones BB gun, an air carbine that predates the more famous Red Ryder model. The video highlights that the Buck Jones, not the Red Ryder, was the model depicted in the film "A Christmas Story," featuring a sundial and compass on its stock. The origin of the Daisy Air Rifle Company is also detailed, stemming from windmill sales by the Plymouth Ironworks. The Buck Jones, named after the popular movie star, was produced from 1934 to 1942 and was discontinued following Jones's death, leading to the introduction of the Red Ryder.
