Benjamin pellet gun repair advice help needed

Hello. Pellet guns are fun. It sounds like the air tanks seals are warn out and causing the air to leak out. The best thing to do is buy a new one. Good Luck.

insert bb in front of bolt,,, i think the little hole on side is for air to flow behind bb. i thought the same thing about mine but thats the only thing i can figure.... as far as the safety being gone its not a big deal unless you are trying to sell or something

Dear Aijaz Talpur,
I am Salman. Nice to see your question about bending barrels of Benjamin Franklin 342s airguns. I suggest you take the barrels to some Lathe Machine Expert (Kharadia). He will easily straighten them. I live in Nawabshah Sindh and have used a huge number of Diana, BSA, Crosman Benjamin and some pakistani airguns.

Please feel free to contact on 03018564852 for further help.

Regards
SALMAN

I couldn't find the model 317, But crosman bought benjamin, sheridan. Check it out.

Crosman bought out benjamin / sheridan, and they still repair just all their pump guns. The ring sounds like a piece of a pellet, the barrels are silver soldered to the bottom tube, Not lead. Also, the repair kit should not have too many parts, you can only go so far with those guns before needing special equipment to get them apart. Get a hold of Crosman and tell them that benjamin sent you a bad part. They should fix it.
I had an old Benjamin Franklin in .22 cal, it was just a brass tube with a stock and barrel. I sent it to them, to be repaired, and I wanted the .22, because I had the 5mm and the 177. So I got it back, cost $29, New barrel, in .177, soldered on, new guts, new paint, trigger, bolt, the works.. Brand new gun. I told them I wanted the brass and I wanted the .22, They said oops, sorry. I didn't complain, nice old gun. Hope this helps.

I recently purchased a rebuild kit for my 342. I bought the kit from airgundepot. It was the kit for the
392 and I modified it a little. On the new plunger, you have to drill a hole in the center of it the same
size as the pin's smallest diameter. You can use all of the parts in this kit except for the small o-ring. I think it sold for about 39 dollars or so. My rifle was manufactured in 1972 and it fires like new.
