Daisy Model 118 Target Special
and Targeteer... Years Produced 1936-1953

Description: 118 Target Special was Daisy's
first Pistol. It shot a .118 Cal. shot that was designed for
Indoor shooting and all guns were sold in a box that made
into a target or come with a target. The .188 shot is Collectible
and highly priced now, but a Number 6 Steel shot will work.
Variations:
FYI... The first patent was given in Oct. 1938
I believe
1936-1948 They were Blued with fixed sights

1948- A extremely rare Nickel finished model
was given only to Visitors during their visit to the Daisy
plant in Plymouth Michigan. Daisy was celebrating their 60yr
anniversary and called the set a Diamond Jubilee Targeteer
Set.
1948- The adjustable rear sight was added
1949-1952 A Chrome version was introduced along
with the blued version.
1953- Production was ceased this year. But some
were produced with a painted finish and also some stamped
Targeteer.
The plastic Targets will bring as much or
more than the pistol itself
