Title: Benji 392PA ?
Post by: Yng@hrt on January 22, 2018, 07:41:34 AM
I have two of these w/ the "P" style trigger group ('96's). One shoots 618 & the other 588 fps w/ CPHP 14.3 @ 8 pumps. I was wondering what you folks are getting out of yours? Is this the norm or are mine on the low end?

My '93 392P gets 657 on 8 pumps with the 14.3 Crosman domes.

Excellent numbers Randy.

My 2-P's are in the mid 600's as well. IIRC fps shouldn't change much on these Benji's regardless of when they were built. Will probably try flushing out the 2-'96's again to see if there's any improvement.

Thanks!

 Around 630 seems to be the average out of the box.

Thank you Charles & Mark for taking the time to post your numbers. Really appreciate that!

My 392P's are both 91's. One shoots 633 fps & the other 642 fps using CPHP 14.3 which I am satisfied with.

You probably already know this but I'll mention it any way because it matters for the information I'm searching for. 91-93 were Racine productions. Crosman took over sometime in '94 but kept the same trigger group, tang safety & body style through I believe '96. Even though the trigger group & body style remained the same, "P" designation changed to "PA". It is '94-'96 "PA" numbers I am looking for.

Thanks.
