The well loved Christmas movie "A Christmas Story" is largely responsible for the popularity of the Red Ryder BB Gun. Filmed in 1983 the film has become a nearly instant classic and a theme throughout is that the main character (Ralphie, played by Peter Billingsley) wants just one thing for Christmas: a Red Ryder BB Gun.
