You have to unscrew the shot tube at the end of the barrel.
Push the little spring loaded clip Up towards the end of the shot tube. You will see a little hole that the BB's fit into.
The shot tube holds 50 BB's. Re-insert the shot tube into the barrel and screw it back in.
PS. Make sure the gun is not calked.
Holy Smoke; Heather, BB guns are not toys, they are in fact dangerous to the uninitiated. Always keep safety in mind, never point it at a person, do not look down the muzzle/barrel opening, and before you try to load it make absolutely certain, as my predecessor informed you, that the weapon is not cocked by pulling the trigger while aiming straight up in the air(if outdoors) and at a proper target if indoors. Also, when reinserting the shot tube into the barrel shroud do not force it down, it has to 'seat' into a protruding air tube; work it gently until it screws tight.
Good luck, and don't shoot your or anyone elses eye out.

Re: Daisy Model 25

is there another way to load one cause it doesn's have a sping. it is my dad's gun and he has forgot how to load it, and knows it has all its parts. so someone plz help
And to the other guy who is telling me guns arent toys.
I know they are not toys. but telling me how to load it, doesn't mean i am dumb. I know safety of a gun. but i have never had a bb gun so i dont know how to load one.
There are multiple models of the Daisy No 25 BB gun; the specimens manufactured up to the 1970's have a shot ltube that is inserted into the muzzle of the barrel shroud; if you have that model you grasps sthe barrel in your left hand and with the thumb and forefinger grasp the knurled edge and turn it counter clock wise until you can remove the shot tube. The other models have a trap door device on the left side of the barrel about 3 inches down from the muzzle, and all you do is push the trap door in and up and that will enable you to load the BB-s; now as for the shot tube, it does have a tang attached to a spring which you draw all the way back toward the top, holding it firmly turn the shot tube around and you will see a hole in which to push the BB's into it up to 50 of them. The trap door loading type have magazines that can store up to hundreds of BB's. There is no other way to load a Daisy No 25 pump action BB gun.
If your BB gun does not have the above loading features it is not a No 25. Check the top of the BB gun receiver and look for the stamped engraving as to exactly which type of BB gun it is, and record the patent numbers which will be helpful in identifying the gun, also, see if there are any Register (Reg) or Lot Numbers and copy them down also, so that you can relay them to us.
Heather, I had no intention of offending you, but you have to see my point of view that if someone doesn't know how to load a BB gun, they may become injured in the attempt, because it can be awkward trying to work the gun and not really understanding how easily it can go off unintended. I served twenty years in the Marine Corps (1953-73) and have been around firearms since I was 17, and still managed recently to shoot myself in the hand with a BB Gun while trying to remove a shot tube, so it can happen to the best of us.
If someone was used to a lever gun it may not be obvious.
You also want to watch out for that spring tab.
About 50 years ago I got zapped by one the first time and it still stings just thinking about it.
Sort of the Daisy version of M-1 thumb!

M1 Thumb

I think M1 thumb is much worse.
The spring just stings you the M1 mashes you.
At least that was my experience when loading the M1 in a rush.

LOL; I don't mean to laugh at you, Anonoymouse; I never got an M-1 thumb, but I can still remember when I got my first look into an open receiver in Boot Camp and thinking, "My God, that there is a freaking bear trap!"
Two months ago I received a Daiy Model 50 Golden Eagle, one of those copper plated jobbers and after the 3rd or 4th round the trigger got humg up; I removed the lever, freed up the trigger, put it back together and bagan firing her up again. Danged if the trigger didn't get hung up again, so I repeated the process of removing the stock, then got the bright idea to remove the shot tube, forgetting that I had cocked the weapon, and while twisting the shot tube I must have disturbed something because that sucker went off and nailed me in the fleshy part of the palm of my hand.
My excuse, other than sheer stupidity, is that it was late at night and I was tired etc.. etc., which means I ignored one of my self-imposed safety rules, never screw around with weapons late in the evening when: (1)you are an old geezer; (2)are tired; (3)are tired; (4)are tired. Sometimes repetition doesn't save you.
