So I snuck my grandmother's Sheaffer out of the house today to restore for my mom for her birthday. I'm wondering if someone can help me identify the correct name for it. It's an 875 balance military clip model with lifetime nib. It also came with a 400 military clip pencil which I'm wondering the lead size. It's cleaned up as of now, but also needs a new sac (it's a lever filler). So if anybody knows sac sizes as well that'd help. Next stop after I get the sac fixed is to find a Sheaffer box to put them in. Thanks for any help you can give!

Take a look
here. Does it look like the Vigilant about halfway down the page?
Lead size should be either 1.1mm or .9mm.
Hope this helps...
Cheers,
Tom

That's it. Thanks a bunch, mine's a green striated version though!
