I would use Crosman Pellgun oil. Or RWS air gun oil.
Benjamin made several different rifles. Please state the model number (It's most likely on the barrel) and the condition of the rifle to get an estimate of value. Is it still working? Is it in Excellent, Very good, Good, Fair or Poor condition?
It was made between 1935 - 38 see the link below for the owners manual. it's a model 107 or model 177

In order to answer your question I will need to know a few more things. Like the model number (It's usually on the barrel) the condition of the rifle? Is it working, does it hold air?
You do have an old one. The model 122 at the end of the barrel indicated that it is a .22 caliber pellet gun. There also was a model 177 that is a .177 caliber pellet gun and a model 100 that is a BB gun. All these models were first introduced in 1935 and ran until 1941. these were the first production air guns by Benjamin. The name Franklin was added as a marketing gimmick and had nothing to do with Ben Franklin. today Crosman owns both the Benjamin and Sheridan line of airguns. If you want a estimate of value then give it a rating like Poor, Fair, Good, Very-Good or Excellent and I will try to give you an answer.
There are two versions of the 317. The first version had a plunger right under the barrel, made between 1934-40. The second version had a pump handle under the barrel. It was made between 1940-69
No, do not put any lube in the barrel, but on the threads.
Benjamin Franklin 22 cal single shot pump. Folders brass and wood. What is the valur
The three main parts of a syringe are the barrel, plunger, and needle. The barrel is the hollow tube that holds the medication, the plunger is used to expel the medication from the barrel, and the needle is the hollow tube at the end of the syringe that delivers the medication into the body.
What condition is it in, That determines the value. BTW they all had Brass Barrels.

No, it is not recommended to push the plunger all the way through the syringe while your thumb is pressing on the tip. This can cause the plunger to come out of the syringe barrel unexpectedly, potentially leading to spillage of the contents or injury. It's better to use the syringe as intended for safe and effective administration.
If it appears to be really old it may be on the very back of the barrel on the rear cap. Usually it's on the side of the loading chamber. Benjamin made a model called the 177 it referred to the caliber but was also the model number. For a period of time Benjamin also did not put serial numbers on their guns. Today Crosman Corp owns and produces the Benjamin and the Sheridan line of airguns.
