Hmmm...
I say this is a perfect time to buy one and do a review due the rest of us!
Damn does that ever bring back good memories! Its been decades of course so not sure how the new compares to the old. For in an apartment type range I am sure it would be plenty accurate. These kind make very little real noise. If the TV or radio was on I doubt anyone in another unit could tel what you were doing in there.With ammo prices skyrocketing and winter coming, I am once again looking at airguns. Is the Red Ryder Adult a good gun?

Is it too loud to use indoors? Is it even accurate at all? Most pellet pistols and rifles are too loud for apartment living in my experience. Thanks.
I believe there are better choices.With ammo prices skyrocketing and winter coming, I am once again looking at airguns. Is the Red Ryder Adult a good gun?

A .22 HW30S is very quiet and a HEEEEELLLLLLL of a lot more accurate. You could even source a slip on moderator is necessary, which I don’t think would be.
If it helps you could use your phone to measure the Db’s of various stuff in your home. Write the numbers down etc. I will take some Db measurements of my more quiet air guns indoors for you to compare. Just let me know if you want me to do this and if it would help.

What about pellet, cmp still has the daisy m853 used for $105 and $15 shipping. Very fun and very accurate.

So true, especially for "indoor" quiet shooting fun.Why all the debate about whether it's a "good" gun or not,,, Go to Wal Mart and spend less than $30.00 for the rifle and ammo.Is it too loud to use indoors?

YEP! I too have been amused at all the suggestions for air guns that cost many times what the OP wanted to pay for playing inside an apartment. Yes there are FAR and away better but, OP was asking about $50 for inside and apartment. So I have to guess the range would be quite short. Most important is ANY trigger time is good. My first air gun I was allowed to buy myself was along the lines of this Daisy many decades back. Parents had a hard time getting me to come in the house to eat for weeks after. Next trip out with Dad to shoot my .22, that I could only take with him, I out shot him BADLY. It was due to the time I had spent with that Daisy. After that I was allowed to take the .22 out on my own, when I could afford ammo for it.So true, especially for "indoor" quiet shooting fun.
Right now, Walmart even has Red Ryder Christmas model for $25 ... and plenty accurate for indoor shooting distances
