Description

This bb gun is styled for shooters who appreciate the nostalgia of old-west Cowboy Action Shooters. The Sheridan Cowboy is classic in its look and feel. Sized for youngsters, its ideal for entry-level shooters and intended to satisfy the demands of young shooters at any skill level.

The innovative, ratcheted lever helps protect young shooters from the annoying lever snap-back noticed on some other lever-action rifles. The ratcheted lever remains in position until its fully cocked before allowing it to gently return to the stock--no matter how far its cocked. This BB gun is both lightweight and dependable, making it the right choice for developing lifelong shooting and marksmanship skills and for teaching safety.

Steel BBs can ricochet. The shooter and everyone in the shooting area should wear safety glasses when a gun is being handled (even if it's unloaded). Remember to remove all pets from the area, as rebounding ammo can hit them, too. Never shoot steel BBs at hard objects (including metal targets) or water, as that increases the chance of ricochet.

A classic BB gun that will help develop safe gun handling among younger and new shooters.

The ratcheted lever stops that annoying lever snap-back and remains in position until its fully cocked before allowing it to gently return to position. It's lightweight and dependable.

Great price, wood stock and fun to shot. I think it may be hard for a child to cock, at least my wife finds it hard. I am thinking of getting another one for my workshop rodent control program.

Its power, which has been more than I had with a Red Ryder but then from BB gun to BB gun even of the same model it appears there are variances in power (fps)..With minor adjustment to elevation it is dead on accurate and serves my purposes in keeping pests out of my small yard.

I had the fore grip and stock refinished..couldn't stand that "orange" looking finish it came with and i am short man and even for me the stock could be longer.

I think it is too hard to cock for a young person, harder than my Red Ryder. Mine was defective in that the door on the BB loading opening wouldn't stay shut.. Rather than return it I had a jury rigged O'ring fix to keep it closed..When i went to return it to the factory I found it to cost almost as much in shipping costs than a new Sheridan Cowboy ..So when this one breaks I will buy another the warranty is no good with the expenses involved. Quality Control should of caught this!

-Overall solid gun -metal lever -looks great -good punch

-Needs a longerstock, or an optional butt pad for and adult shooter -Needs a bigger area around the trigger (very hard for me to get my finger in there) -hard to cock for a youth gun -could use a better finish on the metal parts

While the lever is metal it has a weird tab on the back I've managed to pinch myself with more than once.
Too hard to cock for youth, though excellent sized.

The lever isn't metal any more, now it's plastic.

There is no doubt about it. This BB gun has a bit more power than the Daisy RR. At 15 feet the RR would only put a good dent in a soup can. The Sheridan Cowboy not only put a dent in the can but also added a deeper dent and a split to it. Wood and metal +++ Accuracy is very good.

The finish of the gun is a flat black. I would change that to a more realistic looking blued finish ???. The butt stock should be 1'' longer.

This BB gun is no longer Marlin or Crosman supported. The BB gun I received from PA is the Sheridan Cowboy. The gun has no longer the ratcheting cocking lever. Why??? Law suite??.

Nice rifle for a youngster and fun too shoot.

Quality control.

The finish on this gun is flat black not as glossy like in the picture's. all work's fine except the lever is not ratcheted as advertised, at least the one I got isn't. You have to cock it all the way or it spring's back.

Sturdy build and very nice wood finished stock and forearm! Has enough weight to feel solid even for this adult. This is a real competitor to the Daisy Red Rider!! And it has a metal cocking lever...no skimpy composite material!! Out of the box everything was solid - no loose screws, etc. and shoots strong.

For the money...nothing!

A great BB gun for entry level and on up with enough power to please any plinker!! Thanks for the great product!!

Wood stock and metal lever, solid feel.

Smoother trigger,it is very "crunchy"

Not accurate when bought a year ago but much better with use, now getting 0.8 to 1.4 inch groups at 5 meters, but trigger feels no better.

I like that this airgun is mostly hardwood and metal. The black metal is a nice contrast to light coloured wood stock and fore grip. I like that it holds 700 rounds! I like how the gun diesles at first! A little smoke is fun with this Cowboy gun! The low report is perfect for indoor use.

I would change the Quality control person who let my gun get by them with faulty rear sights that were crooked and the part of the rear sight for aiming ("u") should have been thrown out instead of on the gun. I decided to bend the rear sight with pliers to line it up properly with the front sight, instead of packing the gun up and returning it from Canada to PA.

Don't over oil inside the gun....but to avoid rust on the external parts just wipe the gun down with a rag & Pellgun oil, including the wood stock.

I've had my Sheridan 'Marlin' Cowboy for a year now and it is well bbroken in and shooting better than when it was new! I painted a white dot on the front sight post and modified the rear sight so the notch is narrower and now it is easier to shoot accurately. I was shocked when i shot at a soup can and the crosman copperhead BB actually made a hole!!! This lever action air gun has some punch! I have tried 4.5mm gamo lead round ball, which shoots well, but i treated the gun like it was a single shot, to avoid the lead balls deforming in the magazine and jamming the barrel. The occasional ball does get stuck, but i just used a ramrod i made from a length of wood dowling to ram the stuck roundball back into the guns breach for firing again. It still works best with steel BB's. All in all, this is great bb gun that i wish had a man sized shoulder stock. I plan to make one on my own, and then this bb gun will be even better.
