Post by: amb5500c on July 20, 2011, 05:09:33 PM
There have been a few changes since the last family group picture. This is the latest picture of my happily growing Benjamin family.
From left to right:
177 model 397
177 model 397 *NOTE* these two on the far left have consecutive serial numbers.
177 model 397-P "nickle plated"
177 model 310 "polished brass"
 22 model 342
 22 Trail NPXL 1100
 22 Marauder

I like it. My Sheridan is currently "pink" since I thought I could use a re-blue kit on it and found out the black is just paint. I'm thinking of polishing it or repainting it. Those stocks look like they've had some major polishing done. Is that gun stock wax and polish time or did you refinish them?

The only stock in the picture that I have done anything to is the old 310. I sanded the old finish off and applied a few coats of tung oil and waxed it to its current finish.

That's a great looking group of Benjamins, Richard!

One thing though, keeping them too close together is making them multiply, it seems.... ;)

Thats fine by me Stephen. I only wish they were born in litters instead of single births.

Nice pic hun... I was going to ask if you got the 310 back yet and how it looks.... I still think it is cool that the 2 are consecutive guns per serial numbers.
Enjoy them..
