As  a new person to the air gun world i have bought 2 air guns  and have a questions about my R10..      I got it for a good price i think?  70$ but its missing the ft sight.   I have no idea where to find one i'd like to put one back on it...and i would like to know the age of it...it's somewhere between 1985 and 95 is that correct?  the # number is 95401  Santa Rosa.... I haven't got to shoot it yet i need to find pellets for it .20 cal..help  on what pellets to start with....thanks.....Derik   Oh the other gun is a Benjamin  Sheridan Blue streak  in 20 cal also..

Weihrauch went to 6 digit ser # in 1962, so can't help as to date.

My Santa Rosa .20 likes JSB best with crosman premiers second then FTS. havent tried any h&n yet.
My Sheridan likes the premier well enough

also assuming you left a number off your serial the barrel could have been switched from an r1 (production started 1980) or maybe a San Rafael r10. My guess is an r1. (though thats not saying much)

I have an R10 .20. Stamped santa rosa, west germany...The collector I bought it from said because it had " west" Germany it was made before 1989.  That is when the wall came down.

It shoots JSB cp won't fit in the breech they are very tight.
