Benjamin 397P Phase 1

[Shed tuner]

Looks good... just need to blue those circlips now

Thanks Ped I'm really happy with it and its held air over night. Hopefully it will work for another 30 years now.

Shed tuner, the silver e clips and new pins are the best thing on this old girl.

I was thinking same thing

[--ped--]

sadly due to kung flu my supplier is shut and they were the only e clips i had (for silver streaks really)but rest assured i'll be getting some and will forward some on as they stand out like a dogs digit

[ratbuster2240]

How about that for a service! Tbh I wouldn't care if they were fluorescent pink, well worth swapping the old roll pins for these, almost impossible to damage the pump arm and tube.

[--ped--]

those will possibly the last i'll do as no real demand for them -i may do a few for myself as i have around 10-12 sheridan/benji's
i'm doing a different style for my 13xx pins and just need to make the 8-32 round nuts

Nice job ratbuster.
I have a similar Sheridan C9A made in March 2011 (serial no 31170456) -- does it have a cartridge type valve?

[ratbuster2240]

That's a keeper AllanM, the new equivalent versions now have plastic stocks.

I believe yours has the cartridge valve, so in the unlikely event it ever needs new seals you won't need any special tools other than a phillips screwdriver.

Very grateful you could make me a set.
