Wow! I bought a Cricket for my granddaughter a couple of years ago at JFLOYDS Guns and Golf in Sevierville for about $100.
You can find the savage rascal for 149
If I remember correctly, Cricket requires manual cocking, Rascal doesn't. Trigger very good also. Rear sight is aperture . Easily remedied with bases and scope installation if one chooses! Our boys have been the demise of dozens of nest robbers with a Rascal and one started at 4.
It's a better gun too

We have one of these for my daughter. Neat little single shot
We have both a Cricket and Rascal, everyone in the family likes the rascal better than the cricket.
It's an accurate gun too.
Love our rascal

Take a ole mans advise thats got 14 grandkids and forget about the cricket and the rascal and find a Marlin 15yn and i promise you'll thank me later i've had crickets and rascals and the Marlin is the only way to go imo

Between the two, I'd go with the Rascal any day.
Grab a gun has both the Cricket and the Savage Rascal in stock for around $150. Of course, by the time you add Tax, shipping and a transfer that would be $200.
Saw some Rascals with non traditional colored stocks, purple, orange, pink etc. for ~$120 + shipping & transfer fee. Good candidates for painting or ??? Also agree Marlin 15youth super but not always easy to find. Ours' isn't for sale, Rascal either!

Where are you located?
Our kids enjoyed the Crickett rifles, but probably never fired 25 rounds through either one of them...
NW TN just south of Martin
