Healthway Plainsman?

I was in a gun shop earlier in the week and there was a vintage BB pistol for sale there called the Healthways Plainsman with the box and all paperwork. From doing a quick Internet search, I believe it was model 175. It uses CO2 but smaller then a 12gr and, if I recall correctly, .175 lead balls. It was used but looked to be in decent shape with all parts intact. Does anyone have any information regarding the possible range of value for this?

Gun is probably not worth over $30 in decent condition. I would offer $15 and shoot to score it at $20. The pistol uses 8 g CO2 carts available from Pyramyd Air and restaurant supplies. Accurate Airguns is the only repair service I know of for this pistol.

I've tried to look them up before, because I saw one I was thinking about buying, but information on them seems to be very scarce- that, or I was looking in all the wrong places.

My son had one and wanted to give it to me. I messed with it for awhile and figured it was not worth playing with. AS I am not a collector I gave it back to him.
