Sheridan What is a Sheridan? Really

[6gun]

A lot of people on here are to lazy to cock a springer let alone pump 5 or 8 times . but what do you think a "Sheridan" Nickle or blued and a nice stock would cost these days of course a LW barrel or maybe that new barrel company ? would you buy one @ $ 875.00 ? or more ?

EDIT: btw the answer is yes i would pay that or more depending on the build / parts .

If they put a choked, nitride coated bore, removable barrel on it and it was marketed to the high end guys, with fancy walnut.. 850 could be on the menu as a custom order gun I would think. Heck I'd take another green mountain like my mrod 25 if they lessened the choke a little.

Ludicrous!

I just love the look and feel of the Sheridan ( Air Rifles )

I refer to to the feel as Handy!
A real danger to any small game inside of 50y.

When you have time can you post a photo of the guns right side to include the bolt, cam plate, and inspection date in the same photo?

I would like to forward the information to a friend who has devoted much of his life documenting these models.

Thanks in advance.

Is that what you're doing?

No better vintage American made pumper in IMHO.
Picked up several since this photo and the collection keeps growing week by week.

There you go!
A beautiful collection!
BTW my Bluestreak is not a factory Williams. I aquired a tap and bit, and mounted it myself. I also aquired a tap and bit and mounted the spare irises in the trigger guard. I found the trigger shoe in the Beeman catalog, and a front sight hood which I mounted. I ordered an intermount from Sheridan, back in the seventies, but didn't really use it as the sights were excellent with my young eyes. Recently I had Tim do a Steroid tune on it and change that front sight. It has not been right since Tim did his work, and I'm concidering sending it to Mr Baker, as I don't want to take a chance of producing a wall hanger out of it.
When someone visits and says, you remember that old Bluestreak? I want to.pull it out and say you mean this one? Load it up and have function normally.
All the best with your pursuit.
