Vanson Dakota. This is one of the few I own that I think looks good on me unzipped. Jeans are a brand-new pair of oni ishikawadai which are stretchy and perfect

I had to look it up, but my dad had a Sheridan Blue Streak when he was a kid and that I shot when I was a kid. I wonder if that would be low powered enough to shoot safely at home with my kids, if I only gave it one or two pumps?

My '79 blue streak is a tack driver with it's williams 5dsh peep sight, and I rarely pump it past 4 out to 25yds.
1 pump isn't enough to reliably fire .
I'm mostly used to 14.3gr pellets and with those 2 is okay out to 10yds, but 3 is a much better minimum.
Those 14.3's I was buying are discontinued now though, and with the H&N pellets in 11.42 and 13.5gr 2 pumps might work out a little better.
3 pumps is still quiet and safe.

The weight is quite manageable at 5lb, the LOP isn't excessively long for a kid, great crisp 3lb trigger, and while they're quite stiff to pump from 5-8 I never had a problem putting 3 pumps in it when I was 10.
Prices are going crazy on eBay and you'll need to have it resealed if you can't do it yourself ( easy from my perspective, but I've been repairing my own for 15+ years ).

I think they're an excellent choice, but I'm definitely biased.

Gambled on a used Johnson M200 on ebay, think it was definitely worth it Feels effortless to wear and move around in, and I'm pretty excited to wear it as the weather warms up a bit

Thanks! It fits well enough that I'm willing to put up with mid-arm seams, which would usually be a dealbreaker. Anyway I like cheap and cheerful pieces as a complement to the more expensive stuff.

Brown Type III trucker jacket by Tuscan manufacturer Stewart. It's one of their vintage pieces, thick veg tan buffalo suede, with veg tan buffalo leather at the collar and front buttons. My favorite suede jacket with my Phigvel goat suede.
