Trading a KP2SC




This is the same marker I was trying to trade before for an CCM Series 6 pump. I'm still after one so if you have a S6 let me know. I'm also interested in DM's (7 and up) and Egos, S6 however takes the priority. I'm saying this first so you don't get your hopes up or start offering me other markers, those are the only ones I am interested in.


I took some time to clean her up and under that pitted brass finish was a real beauty, even the pump action got smoother after a thorough cleaning.
Few minor scratches on the brass parts but nothing major, few small nicks on the pump handle as well. Stock looks almost flawless (seems to have been sanded down to smoothen it). Safety works.

Overall I would say the marker is in a good shape and comparing it to other KP's I have seen mine looks to have seen only a little action. This is one of the markers that were once training tools for the finnish police forces special unit (Karhukopla) and was later sold at an online auction. My friend bought the whole lot of them and I got mine in a trade.

I would keep it if I ever played with it, somehow the full stock or the heavy brass isn't my style. I'd hate to let this beauty just hang on the wall, she deserves to be played with by someone who appreciates quality old school markers.

These pics were taken before I polished the brass parts and cleaned her up:


Don't I look cute like the puppy on my sleeve?






Edit:
If youre feeling iffy about trading with a foreigner or with international shipping I have no problems shipping first (I know this is not the PeanutButterNAtion, but thought to get that in there) provided that I see you as a "trustworthy person" (translates in to a major gun whore who makes deals all the time and people still like you afterwards).

Edit 2/13:
Wow! Over 300 views already.
While I really enjoy the attention I'm getting the number of PM's has been ridiculous, everyone is asking the same question over and over again "how much will you sell it for?". By telling you in the beginning that this beauty is for trade only (and i thought the trades that I am after are pretty obvious, so no, I don't want your brandX's)
I thought you, the MCB'ers, would respect my wants and not get carried away like a bunch of PBN kiddies.

You can go to CCM's website, look up the price of a new Series 6 pump marker, then add international shipping costs, add it all up and let me know if you're still interested. I really, REALLY wan't a S6, thats all.

Enough with the ranting and let's celebrate getting passed the 300 view mark with some new pictures. It was somewhat sunny outside for the first time in a long, long time and I had fun just sitting on the balcony floor, snapping away pics of my favourite markers.



I guess I should wear cotton gloves each time I pick up that KP,fingerprints all over the brass parts!
The last photo shows best what the stock looks like up close

I have had some PM's about this as well.
If the dollar vs €uro exchange rate was different then maybe, but not at the moment.

No, I just want a S6.
Thank you (and others who PM'd me) for your interest in the KP

Sure thing!
Having money involved is a little too complicated since I have no paypal account of my own, all they gave me is a visa electron card and there is no such thing paying directly from your account over here in Finlandia. I COULD use my friends paypal like I do everytime I buy something from you nice people but trading straight up with no money involved would be easier for me in this case.

International shipping has been super reliable so far and from running a PB store back in the 90's to this day there hasn't been a single shippment that got lost.
