Pug

So I'm looking to join the PPS family I don't have enough yet but I want to figure out how much what I want will be. On the feed I was thinking I would get the stock instead of spring feed but would i be able to put a Speed Gate on it? Also I might get the stock trigger if I could put a K frame on is this possible? If not I'll get the 45. Also what does high polish nickel look like?

High polish nickel is shinier. Sergi machine will probably make you a PPS fitting K frame if you ask, he has before.

The stock version of the pug is NOT spring feed, and i would recommend NOT spring feed. It is easier to use. You can get a speed feed.

I'm sure you can get the speedgate put on - just make sure you request it when you order. Stock feed is, well, stock.

K-frames are an aftermarket deal - you would have to purchase a K-frame and put it on yourself, PPS does not make or stock them. .45 frames are nice, but more expensive than the K-frame.

High polish nickel looks like this: http://www.palmer-pursuit.com/images...milled-bdy.JPG

You have to buy a PPS specific K-frame, a normal sheridan one won't work (screw holes don't line up). You'll be looking at around $170 for that. Have you used a K-frame before? I love them, but they do add a lot of length and make them very front heavy.

Spring vs Stock tube is totally based on your style of play. I think the best feedplug option either way would be the rotating feedplug that the Squall group order is getting.

Pug's rock, there's something very rewarding about using one.

Edit: Dan does still make PPS K-frames, I'm waiting on one right now. Price is actually identical between a PPS .45 and a K-frame.

Awesome that surgi can make PPS K frames, that would be great on it
I don't like spring feeds so I already decided against that I was just checking to see if the stock one would work with a Speed Gate/feed
The high polish is nice but is it really worth 400 extra?
What is the rotating feedplug?

400 for a Pug? Not unless your filthy rich. I'd do matte nicket or zinc coating. The feedplug looks like this:

Yeah that's not me I think matte looks good so I'll go with that. So does the feedplug come all the way out quickly for reloading or how does it work?

I dont think that polish nickel is supposed to cost 400 dollars extra, unless they are trying to say "we do not offer this option anymore" Classic options are cheaper than that.

Good luck.

You twist it, which turns the curve of the plug ~180 degrees. This lets you dump paint into the tube directly, then you twist it back and it acts as a plug again, channeling paint into the breech.

My Pug is on its way back to me after a little pilgrimage back to PPS land.
Pics will be up as soon as I get it back in my hands.
It has a Sergison K-Frame, Wire Detent, 12 Gram Dropout and its annoed Matte Black.
