Welcome, Kevin.Good on ya for steppin in and starting your own repairs. Those are all doable, but you'll likely need a special tool or two.You'll find a Sheridan repair manual in pdf form here if you look around. Crosman has all of their user manuals and parts break-downs online at crosman.com, so those will be easy to locate. You'll find that they also have the ones for Benjamin airguns.I favor Mac-1 for parts, but that's because I've known Tim for a long time. Baker will do you right as well.Looking forward to seeing your progress.Thank you for the response, I have been Crosman's website, looks like I need to figure out which variant I have for the 760 Powermaster. Also, I guess I need to look harder regarding the H9A...trying to figure out where that one falls (Crosman or Sheridan) or maybe I am missing more information on the model? Thank you again, and yes, I will post follow up as things progress. Ride on,J~
Great you are interested in getting your airguns going again, and including your daughter.If you haven't looked already, I'm sure that there is a tutorial on how to rebuild the 760 on youtube.The earlier versions had some internal springs on the detent for the BB feed, and also on the little gate/lever to lock the BB's in the chase. Watch for those if you have that model so they don't launch on you. As suggested, go to Crosman's support site and you can download a user manual and also an exploded parts diagram.The seal kits for the 760's are pretty easy to find on ebay, but there are repair shops that sell them also and include additional parts sometimes.Good luck, and do post here for others to guide you to resources or share info.
Don R., Thank you for the information, though it appears to be a link outside GTA.

The Streak manual was put together by UJ Backus, noted Sheridan aficianado, who happens to be a member of GTA (alias "20cal") as well as other forums. He created a website of his own devoted to Sheridans and that's where the Streak manual resides. If you find it useful, consider posting your appreciation here as he may see it.The airgunblogspot link also goes to a location "outside GTA", with loads of useful info based on actual work on airguns.The Crosman website exploded parts diagrams are also "outside GTA".Don R.

It is holding air…mostly? Does not seem to produce the same accuracy with each shot even with a sandbag rest at 10 yards. Appears it is going to need a rebuild unless I am missing something.
