Palmer newb makes first order.

RabidFuzzle · 03-26-2007, 06:36 PM

Ok so it is now official. I have just placed my first order with PPS. Spending nearly a whole paycheck on the only truly custom marker I will ever have owned. (I don't count the stock markers I have bought and customized on my own.) According to Lori, in about 12 weeks time I will be the proud owner of a Springfed Short-n-Nasty.

So any advice from you Palmer vets as to how to handle the wait? I just hung up the phone not 30 minutes ago and I am already antsy as all hell.

Yup. Here is a pic of my inspiration that sold on SCP not too long ago:

Mine will be springfed instead of stockclass feeds.

Bit of advice from a big fan of PPS guns. Have them put smaller bore barrels on like a .688-.685 with wedgits. I have had nothing but troubles with small paint. So much so that I no longer own any PPS guns. I probabally won't again.

If you can get yourself into a very deep state of meditation, the time may pass...

Plan B.... rent a time machine from Austin Powers....
Plan C... Somehow safely induce a coma, I may try this at a party next weekend

....

Plan D... Read the "What are you waiting for from PPS" post and know your not alone

OH... and it sounds like an AWESOME gun to be waiting for !!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm trying to buy odds and ends that I think I'll need to complete my marker. Hunting for them in the BST sections and then receiving in the mail sorta takes the edge off....

if i ever order something new from PPS, it will be w/ a .685 wedgit barrel...

and i've always said, "once you spend the cash at PPS, it's the WAIT that kills you..."
