I am selling my antique Benjamin model 252 .22 cal that I bought as a collector some 35 years ago. I had shot it a few times and it shot well and I was impressed. I still have the original box and paperwork, although both are faded and worn. I received it that way. The pistol is in good shape- considering it's age (sold from 1953-56). The cool thing besides the name and history of this rare collectible is it's small size. It fits in the hand real nicely and is easy to aim and shoot. It shoots the small 8 gram cartridges which are still available in Amazon (sold for soda machines, and carbonated water, etc). The airguns from the 50's used to all use them before the 12g size superseded them. There's not much difference in shot count, and they are cheaper to buy. This is a fun and collectible specimen.

Asking $50 which is less than what I paid for it, but I figure the rarity and box have raised the value by now. A true collector's item and good and fun shooter too.
