I have a vintage Sheridan Silver Streak air rifle, I’ve seen pictures of a lot but none quite like the one I have, has anyone ever seen the chrome trim on the pump and trigger? Did pirates use this on their ship to kill mice!?

Looks like someone got tired of pumping and had a creative way to make it easier. Pumping does get old fast if you like to shoot alot. Mark

The guy that made that leverage extension did a really beautiful job of it. I had to pump mine with my arms and my legs as a kid.

taking a tube and cutting it down bending it back on itself and do i see a rivet
speculation, a man that built airplanes made it, wild guess

@ChuckHunter I wonder if it makes it less valuable, although I’m not really looking to sell anytime soon.

@marflow 777 The pieces form and fit the gun pretty perfectly it also is way easier to pump, who ever did it has some skills

It wouldn't to me, I'd be more likely to spend a little more on that gun if it were something I was looking to buy today. I'm a sucker for period mods, tools, and good fab work however.

I've got enough SilverStreaks, but that one would have definitely followed me home. A unique discovery for sure.
