A short history. Benjamin air rifles and Sheridan air rifles once were separate companies. Sheridan developed the C9 20 caliber series of rifles. Benjamin bought Sheridan and continued to make the C9 20 caliber series rifles. They also made a .177 and a .22 caliber C series rifle called a Benjamin. Crosman bought out Benjamin (in 1992) and decided to continue making the C series. With the name Sheridan on the .20 cal rifle and Benjamin on the .177 & .22 cal rifle some rifles also had the Crosman name on them. ( confused enough?)
During all this confusion and name changing the C9A came along. I have 4 reference bluebooks on air guns and not one of them can give me a date for the C9A, But Crosman has a web page that list manufacture dates by serial number for Benjamin and Sheridan. (See the link below) when it opens scroll down to the Sheridan dates. (the first part is all Benjamin) Hopefully you have the serial number and can match the number with a date of manufacture.

What is age of Benjamin sheridan C9A series 5mm 20 cal serial 004701027?
I know I'll regret answering this question because there is so much confusion regarding this rifle. Let me explain. At one time Sheridan, Benjamin and Crosman were 3 different companies. In 1977 Benjamin air gun company bought-out Sheridan and continued the Sheridan line. In 1992 Crosman air gun company bought-out Benjamin and kept both Benjamin and Sheridan lines going. Up until this time the serial numbering system was very poor for Sheridan. There is even confusion around the C, C9, C9A & C9PB as to when they were produced. Most Sheridan models were just marked "Sheridan" From 1949 to 1990 In 1972 serial numbering began with. #000000. As you can see yours had too many numbers to date it. I Think yours was made sometime after 1990. See the link below for dates of manufacture and you will see what I mean. Scroll down the page when it opens to the Sheridan section.
