Sheridan C Series Repair KitHere's another famous pump air rifle that almost has a cult following (and you can count me in that group. ) It's the Sheridan Blue Streak. This gun has been around since the 1940s and has only recently been discontinued by the present owner, Crosman. The original gun was made in Racine, Wisconsin and stayed in production in Racine when Benjamin acquired the company in the 1970s. Only when Crosman bought Benjamin in the early 90s was production of the Blue Streak moved out of Racine to New York.

One of the reasons that the Sheridans were always regarded in a different light than other pump air guns in its day was that it was 20 cal. All Sheridans were 20 cal. For more than a generation of air gun shooters, you could walk into any store that sold pellets and see that old yellow Sheridan pellet box for sale.
