Waiting on my Weaver Top Mount low rings and then the Simmons Pro Hunter 4x32 pistol scope goes back on. :)

By way of an update, I managed to locate an old Sheridan from a dealer in Queensland. (Google can be useful at times) anyway the permit turned up before Christmas and I picked it up just in time.

It looks like its had some honest use, but metal work is in very good condition. Have managed to put a few pellets through it, with the open sights and she shoots well and holds air which was always a concern. Stock will definitely need refinishing in the near future, then it will look alot better,but it will have to wait to I finish the house renovations. By the serial number looks like it could be a 72 or 73 model.

fenring,
what would be the chance of a photocopy of your manual as I just bought one of those today, always wanted one
will have to wait a while to pick it up as I have 2 air rifle PTA's away already.
This air rifle bug has bitten hard.
