Have one myself, nobody can pay enough for my first rifle. 60 years old and still shooting.
I am..........disturbed.

One of these? Mine was bought new about 50 years ago, has been resealed three times and has dropped a chitt pile of critters. Last reseal was just a few years ago. At the reseal the 'smith (local) had an OEM forearm replacing the "square" one I made in high school. He had quite a selection of OEM Benjamin and Sheridan parts. As above, it's going nowhere. Maybe a grandchild will get it.

just added a 310 and a 312 to the airgun selection. Bought both at a local auction and thought they would need seals but they both are good

Outstanding. I just guess us older guys keep our first air rifle or firearm as a memory to our youth. Kids don't seem to do or appreciate this anymore. I still have my Mossberg 22 I got 75 years ago.

I’ve resealed/repaired/restored dozens of Benjamin rifles. The 312 is my favorite Benjamin! I sure see a lot of Benjamin airguns that have had a rough life of mistreatment!
