Description:
The Sheridan Airgun company maker of the famous pump bb rifle tried entering into the .22 Target pistol market for a short time with this "Sheridan Knocabout" model. Single shot tip up barrel for loading with safety, plastic target grips. These single shot pack, or survival pistols actually shoot very well and do hit point of aim. Made in Racine Wi. In the fifties.

Sheridan made the guns from 1953 to 1960 and they made about 10,000 or so. Price when new was about $17, about $150 today, so it would still be affordable. At the time, the “new” Ruger auto .22 sold for about $37, for comparison. It seems Sheridan quit making them, though, when corporate policy dictated they just make airguns, not “real” guns — so that was that.
The barrel is 5″ long, for scale, and the gun weighs about 24 oz. Note it’s held together with rivets so you’d need to drill them out to take it apart!
