In order to give you an estimate of value. I need to know a few more details like, The model number. Sheridan made 5 different pellet guns and 7 different rifles. The 5 pellet models are E, EB, ED, HB and H20PB. Which one is yours? Is it still working? What condition is it in. Poor, Fair, Good, Very Good or Excellent (Like new) without this information No estimate of value can be given. In 1977 Benjamin airgun purchased Sheridan, In 1992 Crosman purchased Benjamin. Crosman owns Sheridan today. Sheridan and Benjamin look similar. All the .177 and .22 Caliber rifles are marked Benjamin. All the .20 caliber rifles are marked Sheridan. Other than caliber the two models are identical. If you want the owners manual for your pistol a link can be found on the Crosman home page.

Musketeer Rifles were a brand of high power center fire bolt actions marketed in the nineteen sixties and perhaps a bit later by Firearms International Corporation (FI). They were based on quality Fabrique National (Belgium) mauser actions which were imported, barreled and stocked in the U.S. by FI to make complete rifles. They used alloy bottom metal (rather than steel) which is perhaps the only less popular feature of them. Over about ten years of manufacture, the had several succeeding stock patterns. All styles had good quality wood. Offered in popular American calibers at competetive prices, they were nice rifles. They are relatively uncommon but their value is as good hunting rifles rather than collector items. On today's market (April 2009) they would probably fetch in the area of $350 to $450, depending on variables of caliber, condition and stock configuration. Sako was a large Finnish firearms manufacturere making hig quality rifles in the same era and they are still in the same business, now under the auspices of the Baretta firm. Their only connection with the Musketeer was that FI was also the importer of Sako rifles during the Musketeer era. Other than that, there was no direct connection at all and they were noticably different action designs. - iskra
