That wood furniture looks great, where did you get it?

I got them from a company (guy) called Alliance Hobby. Unfortunately I've heard so many bad reviews and people having to get refunds from not receiving orders from them that I sort of feel lucky I got the stuff. Personally I had no problems with placing or receiving my order. It's too bad about the spotty service because these grips and forearm are really nicely done.

Haven't seen a Benjamin like that one in many years.

No this isn't a firearm, but a lot of people don't realize that S&W actually once manufactured airguns in the 70's.
They had the 77a MSP rifle, a co2 bb repeater, then they had the .22 model 78G and .1777 model 79G co2 pistols made to replicate their model 41 .22lr target pistol.


This is a 1978 example from the final run of production before the tooling ...etc was sold off to daisy, I bought it last year from the original owner who purchased it new in 1981.

It's quite pellet picky but is pretty accurate when you find one it likes.

Saw one last week at a pawn shop, it looked as new. Asking $100 for it. If I were a serious S&W collector I’d have bought it. I was more interested in the 5 screw K-22 they had…

Now that's a pretty rare one.
I can't remember the model number on those but basically they took one of these ( this is a rare model 177 only made in '35 )
and cobbled on a lever before coming out with these. ( this is an early 132 from '48-'52 )

That pistol you have was unsuccessful and unpopular so it didn't last very long.
I can only imagine that they're a little more convenient to pump than the early " bicycle pump " pistols like my 177, but not as good as the later lever pump pistols.

I'm not particularly into the 1377 and 1322 as a pistol but they make a great rifle with the right parts and a little work.

For pump pistols I prefer the Benjamin H9a.


For the Crosman pistol platform I prefer the 2240.

The co2 platform makes a great carbine as well.

But they're just fine as a pistol.

Is that a 130, 137, or 132 ?
Based on the grips and rear sight it looks to be a 60's gun

It’s a 132 to be sure a 60’s gun

I just looked up the SN, and it's a '65 example to be exact.

I had a USP years ago, solid pistols. Reliable and tough.

Looks like mine must be a transition model. It has the straight pump shaft and same rear sight as your 177, but has 117 stamped in the end cap.
