Daisy, and they still own the company.
The oldest known air rifle gun was invented by Girandoni of Vienna about 1780, for the Austrian Army. Lewis and Clark also carried an air rifle on their trip across the west. The first BB gun was made by the WF Markham Company in 1886. After the turn of the century Daisy owned the Markham company
I suggest you contact Daisy airgun company directly and request an owners manual (See the Daisy customer service link below)
Daisy made a model Golden Eagle BB rifle but it was a model 104 golden Eagle from 1966-1974. Daisy made a model 88 Hunter rifle, roughly from 1957 - 1960 Daisy made a model 98 Daisy Eagle in three variations from 1955 -1960. (I think this is the rifle you are referring to.)
If you are talking about the Daisy Air Force Rocket Command Rifle, it was made in 1959 only If this Rifle is in excellent condition it is worth about $300
Only if the rifle is designed for pellets. If it is a "Red Ryder" then the answer is NO. Daisy makes PELLET rifles.
In order to get an answer here, you would need to describe the condition of the rifle. Unfortunately you haven't, So I am going to give you a Daisy web page that may to be able to help you if you want to pursue it. See the link Below!
Almost any air rifle scope will fit a Daisy. Check Walmart or a sporting goods store for a Daisy scope. But any air rifle scope should fit the dovetail mount that is on the rifle.

Your question is a little too vague. Daisy made several models during the 50's. I need to know the Model number (it will most likely be on the barrel) are you talking about a gun or rifle? Look up this information and post your question again.
Daisy offers a free service to tell you more about your Daisy. You can also write to them and see if they have a parts drawing for the rifle (See the links below)

The Model 1894 is a BB rifle made by Daisy to resemble the Winchester lever action rifle used in the old west.
