Hi I gave my nephew my 10 year old Benjamin Sheidan 20 caliber pellet rifle, he now claims that it will not maintain pressure, as if it stops accumulating pressure after a couple of pumps. (I cannot possibly imagine that a 15 year old boy would try to pump the gun 100 times to try and shoot thru a telephone pole!) At any rate anyone know if and how difficult it is to repair the gun? Would I just be better off giving him a new inexpensive break open?

Wanna bet???

Fix the sheridan if he did he probably wont do it again.
Contact benjiman and see where it needs to be sent for repair.
sounds like a simple repair to me.

He's 15 'ea, I'd check the local telegraph poles for 20 cal. holes.

The pump up guns are great for plinking, so even if he gets a better gun I'd still get that one fixed.

Here's an excellent source for repair and tune ups for Sheridan pellet rifles where I had mine tuned www.mac1airgun.com my sheridan is used for pests such as digger squirrels & other varmints.In CA .20 cal & up pellet rifles are legal for non migratory game birds such as quail,grouse,chukar & turkey.
