Description
An American classic gets an update with the synthetic-stocked Benjamin 397S/392S multi-pump pneumatic Air rifle series.
Although it's been a part of the Benjamin air-rifle lineup for decades, the company has continued adding improvements like a swelling in the forearm to make it easier to pump and a fully adjustable rear sight, for example. Its sleek, Monte Carlo style stock has been reintroduced in a synthetic option that's durable and all-weather rated for years of reliable accuracy.
The 392S/397S series features a rifled brass barrel painted black. It's a bolt-action air rifle with which the shooter may control the muzzle velocity depending on the number of pumps. And, although these guns are scopeable, the B272 intermount is required to do so.
Ideal for everything from small-game hunting and pesting, to plinking and target practice, the Benjamin 397S is an accurate, powerful, reliable shooter that is suitable for a variety of tasks and they're built to last and last.
This air rifle has no scope rail or dovetail. An Air Venturi Intermount is attached to the breech, a Weaver/Picatinny rail is attached to the intermount and scope rings are mounted on the rail.
Combo includes Benjamin 397 rifle with an Unmounted Mantis 3-9x32 AO Rifle Scope and Leapers Premium 1" Rings (scope & mount not installed). This gun does not come equipped for a scope from the factory, therefore our specs have it listed as unscopeable. To scope this gun, you have to purchase an aftermarket rail or an intermount. This kit comes with a rail and an intermount.
Note: To maintain the seals for a long time, remember to put one pump of air into the gun when putting it away after shooting. Whether you plan to shoot again the next day or not again for another 2 years, always put one pump into the gun when you're done shooting!

7 of 7 Benjamin Multi-pump Air Rifle, Black Kit Reviews
It's a solid rifle. Well made and powerful. The scope included in this kit is amazing and attaches securely with the rail and mount. I had it close to sighted in after about 10 shots. I'm not a great shot but I'm doing pretty good at 100 feet.
Things I Would Have ChangedThe trigger isn't the best. 2 stage adjustable would have been nice.
What Others Should KnowThis rifle is HARD to pump. If you want to get to 10 pumps (the max) it becomes a workout. Honestly after 5 shots I need to give my arms and elbows a break. This rifle is not ideal for casual plinking, etc. I kinda wish I got a break-barrel but I like it enough to keep it.
Solid, beautiful finish, great etchings, a real powerhouse. Mine is a .22.
Things I Would Have ChangedWell, I bought mine elsewhere since PA did not have any at the time. Disappointed on this one. Front sight was angled vertically and horizontally to the left instead of straight on. Same issue with the 1077 I own. Benjamin should have corrected this long ago.. There are numerous blogs and reviews out there that mention this issue. Hence I cannot give this rifle the 5, I would like to give it. Tried to bend the sight. Cheap metal it broke. Superglue and black electrical tape meticulously applied and trimmed makes it hard to notice. Still the sight is obviously not in line as it should be. I put a Bug Buster scope on it, but still for the money: not acceptable. Cheek weld on stock is a little high. I manage tough. Don't get me wrong. It's a keeper and one that I am sure will provide years of service and reliability. Dead on with the scope for accuracy. Make a camo stock and maybe a camo with black trim. And don't forget Muddy girl theme. I have daughters to.
What Others Should KnowAside from the mentioned issues: It is still worth having. At least you know the issues up front if you read this review. Does take some effort to pump. Do it often enough and your upper torso and arms will get stronger and well defined.
I can see the bullet in the scope and it is on the money .I think it is more quiet then my Benjamin 342 I just resealed.Some how the bullet goes more straight then the 342 model.
Things I Would Have ChangedThe pump handles too big. Needs a place so you do not slam your fingers in it.
What Others Should KnowThis 392 is longer then the 342 model. Made for adults.
Had one of these back in the 40s .Was a great air rifle..Had a peep sight on the rear . Loved it. This is a tried and true little air gun.
Things I Would Have ChangedI would like the rear peep sight.
What Others Should KnowI kept this air rifle for at least 10 ys and it was working when i gave it to a friend..
Was going to order one plastic stock?
Things I Would Have ChangedBring back the wood stock Crosman what are they thinking?
What Others Should KnowAmerican made is great
Almost everything, I use mine to keep the sparrows out of my Purple Martin Nesting area. I got about 35 sparrows and 10 blackbirds so far this year. Sparrows are like the worst mugger you ever saw on Purple Martin nest. I got to be very accurate.
Things I Would Have ChangedEasier to pump up, like double the air in each pump.

Things I Would Have ChangedWould be nice if there was atleast weaver rail on the gun.
