Default Hard Cocking of Sheridan Model C

Having most of my original air guns since age 6, I have just purchased a 1981 Sheridan Model C. As this is my first Sheridan I was not familiar with the amount of pull required to cock the bolt. Just guessing it must be on the order of 30-40 lbs and
seems jumpy during the cocking procedure. Removing the stock I don't see anything
that would create the condition, the internal components are clean and seem lubricated. Before I started to take things apart to examine for broken springs, sears,
etc I wanted to ask others their experience with the Model C.
So, anyone with Model C experience I would appreciate hearing from you....
Thank You,
David Woodruff
