Benjamin Sheridan H9 pneumatic pistol 1991 - 1994

(1/1)

TheTigerWoodsOfFishing:
I bought this Benjamin / Sheridan .22 caliber pneumatic pistol when I was in college sometime between 1991 and 1994. I started a family soon after so I kept it out of the way and eventually forgot about it when life got hectic. I have read through various posts and there is reference to collectors quality, but no mention of a proper age to qualify as such.

The serial number is R014903 it is .22 caliber.

Thought? 

TheTigerWoodsOfFishing:
I am planning to take my nephews shooting with this unless I should consider it something special to only shoot occasionally. I wouldnt be surprised if it hasnt been fired in 20+ years.

Put some oil on the pump cup and pivot points. Pump it up, see if it holds air.
Then shoot the heck out of it. 😁😁
