    Daisy Daisy Avanti 753W Elite Competition- Information wanted.

    I recently picked up this Daisy Avanti 753W. New old stock. Trigger was horrible. Over 10 pounds. Did the complete trigger job which included a adjustment screw added for sear engagement. Now 12 ounces with no creep. Could go even lighter. Accuracy is outstanding. On a calm day it will bust...

    To Strip or Not To Strip

    This is the question. Here are three examples. Top one is a factory finished Beechwood stock. Almost looks pickled. No color but a nice matte finish. I did strip it and it’s now the bottom one. Just received a new one (middle). They finally added some color to the wood. Much better. This...

    Sheridan Steroid Pumpers - Sheridan Benjamin Crosman

    I am wanting to know about steroid pumpers. What exactly is a steroid? Is anyone still doing this? What does it involve? How much does it cost? What are the benefits? What are the negative trade offs? How do you know for certain a gun is steroid when advertised as being one? What is an...

    Traditional Rifle Weihrauch HW55S ARH NOS

    This is an opportunity to acquire a NOS untouched Weihrauch HW55 Standard. This is a 1978 (by serial number) ARH (Air Rifle Headquarters) import. Nicer than the Beeman import (to me) because it doesn’t have all the Beeman branding on the metal work. This rifle is as new and doesn’t appear to me...

    Sheridan What is a Sheridan? Really

But the later “C” model is what most recall when talking about a Sheridan. Benjamin bought Sheridan in 1977. They stayed in Racine Wisconsin, and made very minor...

    HW/Weihrauch Vintage ARH/Beeman Catalogs - QUESTION

    Out of an estate find over a decade ago, I got a box full of old vintage catalogs. Is there people that collect these? Where does a person learn a value on them? This is Not a solicitation. If I do decide to sell them, I’ll list them in the classified. Thank you

    Benjamin Benjamin Model 87 Centennial

    Just recently acquired this Benjamin model 87 Centennial. I guess these are quite rare. This one is also in the rarest caliber, 177. It has no serial number. Are far as I can tell through my research, it’s the only one to date that is in the 177 caliber with no serial number.
