Sheridan Products Inc. of Racine, Wisconsin USA, was founded in 1945 by Mr. Ed Wackerhagen and Mr. Bob Kraus.
In this Company memo dating from 1968, Mr. Wackerhagen shares a brief history with the employees at that time.
The Benjamin Air Rifle Co. bought Sheridan in 1977 and continued operations in Racine.
Crosman bought Benjamin/Sheridan in 1992 and soon after moved operations to Bloomfield, NY.
Sheridan designed and produced fine air rifles, pistols, paint ball markers, and tranquilizer guns.
The company also produced pellets, target traps, and other items to use with their air guns.
Sheridan products have stood the test of time; many are still in use today and highly sought after by collectors.
Detailed information on the Sheridan air rifles can be found in my book
soft cover, 100 pages with over 200 b&w and color photos
