So, the next thing I want to do is restore the gun to "like-new" condition I want to have the seals checked, the metal cleaned and polished, the internals cleaned and lubed, and the stock possibly refinished. Now: I have recently discovered from talking to a few people here and there that the only Benjamins that can be steroided are the ones with Sheridan internals, i.e., circa 1977 and forward. So I am still very happy to have this gun. 44.99 Add to Compare Add to Wish list 3.0 (1 review) Add to Cart Benjamin Airbow 1,950 psi Regulator Assembly Benjamin Airbow 1,950 psi Regulator Assembly Fits Benjamin Airbow Part Number.
And it's made with all metal and wood parts, no plastic.īeing made in 1970 means that it's one year younger than me which definitely makes it a vintage piece, since (at least in the airgunning internet community) a vintage airgun is generally defined as being manufactured "Pre-1980." I think the letter on the serial number looks like a D, but if I am wrong, and it is actually a T, then yes, the serial number would place its date of manufacture as 1970.Īnd you know what? The age doesn't concern me nearly as much as the fact that this baby was made in the USA. Well, according to the Crosman website, 342s began production in 1968, so it is definitely not from the 50s.
