How old is your model 122 Benjamin Franklin air pistol?

Answer 1

The 137 is part of the 130 series of pistols made between 1946 to 1985. The 130 was a BB gun, the 132 was a .22 caliber and 137 was a .177 caliber pellet pistol.

Answer 2

Well you are wrong...........There is a Benjamin Franklin .22........marked right on the barrel "Benjamin Franklin"......I also have the original box and pellets and sales slip and booklet that came with the weapon dated 1952.......... Well then I stand corrected. I would like to see a photo of this Air gun. It is not one I have ever come across in any of my catalogues or travels. I have been collecting for several years and have not seen one. If you can send me a message on my message board and I will respond. Rodd Luna

Answer 3

I've referenced several books and catalogues to find a Benjamin model 320 without any luck. I can find NO reference anywhere, but I did find a pistol model 1320 made by Benjamin ( Benjamin Franklin is just a marketing name. Walter Benjamin made the Benjamin line of Airguns in 1899) The model 1320 pistol was made between 1959 - 1964.

Today Crosman airguns owns both Benjamin and Sheridan airguns and a search of their information also does not reflect anything about a model 320. If there is one, hopefully someone else may know more about it.

Answer 4

Benjamin is now owned by Crosman air gun company. The model 130 is part of the line of 130 series pistols, they included models 130, 132, and 137. They were made from 1946 to 1985. My guess the 130 is an early version of the line.
