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?

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. 😁😁

Also, when done shooting, put 1 or 2 pumps in it to maintain pressure on the seal. I "recovered" my FiL's ancient (mid 50s) .20 Benjamin and now he knows to store it with a pump or two.
Those pumper pistols will put meat on the table if small game is your larder. They other are perfect for knocking cans down, launching bottlecaps off a fence post, or smashing Necco wafers from across the yard.

true! and the fact that they are Multi pump allow for safe indoor plinking if wanted. Even if you can find one, everyone should have a crosman 1377

This topic inspired me to finally address the unacceptable trigger on a H9A I have had for about 15 years.
Went the distance and disassembled the pistol and polished the parts. Also freed up one leg of the sear spring.
The trigger is smoother and much better now. Still a little creep, but totally manageable.
