| . Join Date: May 2006 |  Converting a pirahna short barrel to take PGP internals?? I was doing some cleaning this past week and I found something that I totally forgot I still had - a gutted Pirahna short barrel body and trigger assemble/frame. Is it possible to convert a sheridan short barrel body to take 12 grams like a pgp? Smiley |

Ahh yes you can...  trust me...The pic I posted is a replacement valve chamber....no one said it would be easy but yes it can be done and has been done.. Now dont get me wrong the front lower tube threads are a b-itch to get in but it will work... Now I really do not recommend it unles you absolutely have to...the one I did was badly buggered up and it was either give it a try or scrap the gun or scrap the gun trying.. Matt MadCustoms

| MCB Member Join Date: Apr 2006 Location: NC | let me clarify my first post... when i said it won't work, i meant that about it being a drop in part that requires no modifications. i assumed the OP was looking for a drop in application. sure, it can be made to work but it'll take major mods.
