American Pneumatic Air Rifles!!!

 I had the opportunity recently to take this photo of my 70 year old  Benjamin Model 317 alongside a friend's Crosman 1400 Pumpmaster & Sheridan CB Blue Streak.

Crosman model 1400 Pumpmaster .22cal. (1976), Sheridan CBW Blue Streak .20cal/5mm (1972), Benjamin model 317 .177cal/4.5mm (1940-56)
