hello mate. think ive had it about 7/8 years now but still like new . just thought i would try and put a scope on it after all this time .was going to sell and get a 177 but not sure . getting hold of .20 pellets some times a struggle and pricey . have you had yours long . regards .

 

I had one 25 years ago friend and wish I still had it. I don't have one now but would like another. I did not really appreciate it back then!

 

best wishes :good:

Hi Sitty tree

 

It's a problem with the Sheridan rifles..

 

I mounted a scope with both mounts in front of the turrets but the slightest knock would have damaged the scope..

I reckon reach back mounts would help like these on my Airsporter (which are also a ploblem with craning the neck for proper eye relief)

I ended up removing the scope all together and replacing the open sights :good:

Hi Peter

 

They are identical apart from the finish, yes mine is the silver streak, the silver finish is just nickel plate but the Blue streak is chemical blue or chemical black, I can't remember which..

 

They are smashing guns if you don't mind the physical exersion of having to pump them up :good:

 

 

 

Cheers, John :)

Hi Sitty

 

I was given mine to salvage spares for a Benjamin but it was nicer than the Benjamin so I sent it off to a pump up/Co2 expert, he repaired it an sent it back working superbly!!, he had to make a couple of parts for it too!!!
