My Favorite airgun growing up. Harvested alot of small game (squirrels and rabbits) and varmints(woodchucks and opposoms) with this gun. Very durable and acurate.

I own a few airguns,gas and spring piston,and pumpers. But time after time it's the Blue Streak I grab when heading out the door for a hike. The weight and size are perfect for the trail,and it's .20 cal is all the power and range I need for the terrain i'm in. The only reason I gave it a 4 instead of 5 stars is because a few of the screws lose their threads after continued disassembly,easily remedied with stronger screws or loc-tite. Another issue that is easily fixed is the rifles poor scope mounting ability. The B-square mount is a must but even this is weak only being held on by two very small screws. What I did to stiffen it up is use one of the barrel scope clamps that can still be found, replace the screw with a small bolt and nut w/nylon threads. you will need to bore out the clamp some to get it thru. now you have a third scope mount that will keep your zero rock solid! I had my rifle zeroed for 7 years till i put on a different scope. Also the trigger return spring will need to be stiffened with a new spring. the trigger mechanism dwell in the stock can also be snugged up with a strip of 3m doublesided tape, the kind you use for affixing vent visors and such. the front sight post can also be tapped for a sling swivel allowing you to carry the rifle at the ready. Lastly the stock's butt under the butt plate can be hollowed out quite a bit with Bore bits,sink a 1" in the center and 5/8" left and right,5-6" deep. chisle out the corners, and pour a laminate inside and brush it up a bit,let dry. now you've got storage for ammo,tools, etc.The stock also paints well for camo if you want. hands down this is a great little airgun, as well as a inexpensive test bed for anything that comes to mind.

I've got the same in silver, mounted the Williams peep sight. It's dead on at 20 yds and 9 strokes w/ the Benjamin Ammo, 5 strokes at 10 yds.
It's reliable, powerful, and easy to use and train on. It's a quality pellet rifle for kids and grownups.

I've owned this air-rifle for over 20+ years and it still is as strong like when it was new. Rock solid is all I can say.. PLENTY of power!!!! This is no toy mind you as soon as you pump and fire off he first shot, you'll see what I mean... I completely agree with on of the other reviews speaking on the scope mounts... If I had to do it all over again I wouldn't hesitate on the purchase of this quality product... :)

I bought my rifle and a pack of pellets at a garage sale 35 years ago when I was 16 for $5.00. I then sent off to Sheridan and ordered a scope mount. I can't remember how much I paid for it but the total was around $10. since then I've shot many rabbits and squirrels for the pot. I've shot snakes, and possums,and raccoons. I've made most of these kills with head shots. I got the old Blue Streak out the other day and it still shoots 1/2'' groups off my crutch.
I would give this pellet rifle 5 stars. it has been a great value for my money. I've shot it a lot! probably in the neighborhood of 10,000 rounds or so. It still shoots great and is a cool looking pellet gun.

I;ve own an blue streak for over fifteen years and I have no problems with the one I own, It's a great gun accurate,reliable,durable and a faithful friend for the outdoor sportman. I have never had any problems with my air rife and hope to use it many more years and pass it down to my grandkids. Ya

After 30 years this rifle is still a champ and just as good as the day I bought it.Plenty of power and the 20 cal is a great balance with good co- effieient.

I traded for this (Crosman C9A .20 cal.) for my son for his first learner for his 15th B-Day. He LOVES it. We are both very impressed with the workmanship, Power and Accuracy. Also many thanks to Kim Yaddow of Crosman in idenditying this (Apparantly Rare) version and providing the manual and Parts List. She is a Gem of helpfulness.
I can imagine my son passing this on to His sone someday, in the meantime we are both enjoying this before moving my son up to something that will REALLY show him what I mean about NOT letting the butt get a running start on your shoulder...

My Sheridan was a Blue Streak CO2 powered, 1977 @ Sporting Goods Department / Montgomery Wards...master valve failed after one year. After two repair jobs, the rifle was off/on and iffy.... In 1987 I got the Silver Streak, multi- pump rifle..Man we got a baller here!!! Many a rabbits, chipmunks, squirrels, possum, raccoons and pesky feathers received their diplomas (University of I'm the Law here)!..25 years of un interrupted hard hitting, low maintenance service, you can't beat it! This year I'm going for a new Blue Streak to replace the CO2 rifle (yes I still have it ) for back up...

It was 1982 when I saw for the second time at a gun shop’s front the Sheridan C9. It was an instinctive move to buy it and from that time it shoots and shoots and shoots...
The first time was when I was 7 years old (1967) when I admired the little rifle at the hands of my father's good friend who had just come back from the States bringing a Parker side-by-side and this little wonder! It was sleek, ultra powerful and a real gun in the eyes of a kid playing with toy-guns, so it became a dream (waiting 15 years to come true). You see I was born and live in Athens, Greece where back then it was not easy to find such an air gun.
Being now 52, I own and shoot a full collection of firearms and air guns with a wide choice of makes, models, energy output and caliber (actually there are 36 of them). But one gun remains the favorite for ALL the family, this Sheridan. My wife, an active ISSF and IPSC shooter, adores it for its accuracy and power, my daughters for its lightness and ease of operation, I for it is a dream come true but the most because it is robust, dead accurate, powerful, easy to handle and transport, taking all the abuse of using it.
I decided a month ago to service it for the first time! To my surprise all I did was just to dismantle it, clean it thoroughly and put it back without replacing anything but a small o-ring. Even this was replaced just in case of failure, a way to excuse myself for stripping it to the last nut. After so many rounds and almost 30 years, all I did was the usual few drops of oil, a good cleaning and a polish on its stock.
This little gun costs nothing but in the eyes of this beholder is a wonder of craftsmanship, an excellent example of the KISS rule, the best around making me proud for owning it and shoot it and recommending it to all my friends as the air gun to buy being the first or the 100th.
To make things straight, Crosman has many years now a good representation in Greece with full stock of products and spares and most of all good service and a big smile for the gun enthusiast!
Thank you for providing this little marvel for so many years and please don’t you dare to stop producing it!

I guess you could pay alot more these days for an airgun but you could not end up with much better than the Blue Streak. My Dad ordered one for each of us (from Montgomery Wards I think he paid about $40.00 a piece for them) my little brother and me back in 73. Together we pretty much are responsible for the shotage of small birds and game in California I can't remember how many we took. We would shoot at the creek near our home and at my Great Uncles place out in the country. My brother passed back in 97 from a boating accident but his and my own Bluestreaks still shoot as well as when they were brand new. Try and find that kind of quality in what you buy today.

I had a issue with my sheridan blue streak and was very
happy with crosmans service i would recomend this company
to everyone they have fine products and stand behind them.
