Benjamin & Sheridan Repair Kit, Fits Some Pre-1995 Multi-Pump Guns w/Soldered Valve by Pyramyd Airreviews summary
Things I would have changed:The instructions (lack thereof) are horrible. You could use some thing to really know what you are doing. I searched the internet to compensate... still not very good. What others should know:Glad I found you. I rebuilt a gun that I had for 50 years.
Things I would have changed:Would like the parts available in a seperate kit without tool. I have 2 tools now. Also more detailed instructions on how to install plastic seal that replaces old lead seal. What others should know:Keep trying to get that plastic seal in right and reverse the domed nut so flat side is down against plastic seal.
Things I would have changed:I would improve the instructions to include some details as follows: 1. Kit item #30 (part #10010 - intake valve assy). This small item looks like a 1/2" diameter button, and didn't come out at first. I came close to not getting it out, since it didn't drop out at first. It would have helped to add instructions for removing this part (something to the effect of "push with thin straight wire from muzzle end of air tube, using a flashlight to locate the small center hole at the front of the air valve assy, about 18" down from the muzzle end, through which to push the wire"). Installing the new item #30 should make clear that the rubber side is toward the muzzle; the metal side is toward the breech. This isn't real obvious because in my case, the part just dropped out finally, and you have no way to know for sure which side was forward, although when you figure out its function and placement, it does make sense that the rubber seal should be forward. 2. Kit item #27 (part # 68AT-032 - lead valve guide gasket originally). This is a white (plastic?) ring. I thought it was defective (slit open at one point). It was not defective; instead, the slit, at a 45 degree angle, is there intentionally, so its diameter can vary on installation. Making that clear in the instructions would have prevented my unneccesarily calling Pyramyd to report a defective part. By the time I talked to Pyramyd, I had already followed another poster's suggestion, and had used a 5/8"x1/2"x1/16" rubber o-ring from Menard's in place of the supplied white plastic ring (or original lead gasket). So far, so good. I can still install the white ring, or even try re-installing the gun's original lead gasket, if the rubber substitute fails. What others should know:(See "things I would change", above) 1. My pre-1960 Blue Streak does not use kit item #19 (the tiny o-ring). My bolt is not grooved for it. Never knew there was a grooved bolt, until I looked at a later Blue Streak at a gunshop. 2. Stacy at Pyramyd is extremely competent and helpful. I called a couple times with questions; she returned my calls and was most helpful and knowledgeable about these kits and repairs.
