Traded for some old brass.... what model is it?

Pepper · 02-28-2007, 12:48 AM

Well awhile back I traded a used Apex barrel for two old brass pumps; I just got them in today… I just don’t know if I got the rooks. The first one has only had one owner Im the second.

The one with the auto trigger on it was bought new in 88 and last used in 98. It has had one case put through it, wood grips and al the original O-rings. The only markings are on the back on both sides. I have no idea what Sheridan model this is and I’m not familiar with this bolt… what the heck is the screw for back there?

The second one has been modified with a brass fitting for a hopper. It has the same markings as the first one plus some on the end of the barrel on both sides it says “MFG for Pursuit marketing INC Northbrook IL 60062” and on the other “MODEL PMI”

It also came with a CA adaptor and a stock… its broke but I still have the side panels for it I have a friend who will reattach them for me…

So what the heck do I have

First one looks like a Piranha Long Barrel. I'm not sure on the other one, but it looks like a PMI-II.

Do I need to post a picture of a certain feature????

SpinDoctor15 · 02-28-2007, 01:32 AM

Nah, some of the real hound-dogs on this forum will get it on first sight.

Here's a website that might help: http://www.vm68.com/stuff/sheridan_r...ion_guide.html

edit: It might be a 68 Magnum that someone converted to Constant Air. The reason I say this is that the barrel length is a little longer than a Pursuit Pistol (hangs over the pump more), but not long enough to be a P-12. The rear air port must have been changed out when the owner converted it to CA.

top one is a Piranha LB. the bottom one looks like a pmi-1 that has had the top tube removed and a DF was installed.

You did NOT get the rooks.
Nice snag.

Pepper · 02-28-2007, 02:24 AM

Well im glad I didnt get the rooks!lol I havnt taken these two apart yet, can I use my PGP tool to remove the valve? Also the PMI-I with the DF slapped on it, I was thinking about converting it to a spring fed semi auto. Ware can I find a top tube for my paintballs?

Good deal on those. Id say a piranha lb and a pmi1 with a direct feed conversion done at home. Good stuff.

Pepper · 02-28-2007, 10:26 AM

Can someone explane how the bolt works on the PMI LB, or heck if there is a link.

Crash · 02-28-2007, 11:51 AM

The bolt in the LB is a speed demon bolt. The screw on the back had a knurled knob on it to pull that would release the pump rod from the back of the bolt for removal. Some of them also had a velocity adjuster (choke screw) that could be accessed with an allen wrench from the front of the bolt. And as stated before the bottom one is a PMI-I with homebrew DF on it.
