Benjamin Sheridan mod 397G

Sounds like a Benjamin 397G to me, possibly with a pentagon F marking.

Spot on chaps, fifty year old eye sight let's you down sometimes.

Thanks very much.

Yep, I often have the same problem.

These rifles are very difficult to date accurately if they were made in Racine ( serial numbers on mine begin with V followed by 6 numbers) but those made in Bloomfield (dot matrix type serial number) are quite easy to date.

I'll have a look, it's packed away now ready for the bash. There's some dot matrix punched text at the muzzle end, but the rest is rolled at the rear.

Thanks
