Contact Harry Smith in sunset.
He just fixed an old benjamin sheridan .22 cal pellet gun and an even older benjamin franklin bb gun for me. Both guns turned out great.

This man really loves and respects air rifles. Each time I went in his shop I was there for 30 minutes because he was explaining how the guns worked and how well made the old benjamin franklin bb gun is made. He actually offered me $250 for the bb gun before I walked out. I was thinking of throwing it away befoee I brought it to him to check out.

Anyway he has about a hundred benjamins of all models in his shop and also knows a lot of other gun smiths around the country who specialize in air rifles and may be able to find what you are looking for.

If you cant find his contact info let me know. I think one site has the wrong area code for his phone number.

Got one of those in my shop just like that. Sheridan silver streak that shoots the 5 mm pellet. I bought it with my grass mowing money I made back in the 7th grade. I remember exactly, I paid $63 brand new at that place right on the east side of McNeese. I think the name was Miller's house of sports or something like that. That was way back around 1976 or something like that. Still shoots good, it could use a good cleaning though. If I remember right, they shoot around 700 fps. New ones now days shoot up in the 1400 - 1500 fps range.
