looking for specifics

mailmanmike · 10-24-2007, 05:34 PM

I know its a sheridan, though i don't know the model.I know it has some kind of custom work done to it with a dummy 12g in place to run CA. I know it has a Cooper T bolt in it, and i know the stock is from a Crossman Airgun. Thats about it though...so i'm opening it up to you guys. Tell me everything you know!

This is the autotrigger.

i don't think it's a p12.

it's a p series of some sort. the DF isn't factory so it could have been a stock class gun to start with, but it has a front bead sight on the barrel. i can't tell if the sight is factory or not. if it is a factory sight bead it might have been a 68 magnum with a soldered on DF.

also, the pump looks like a McMurray pump so it could be a Mac1 of some sort. does it have a quickstrip slot on the right side to remove the bolt? what about a side tap on the right side too?

after looking at the pics again i see the dummy 12 gram CA adapter so it can't be a 68 magnum. it has to be a 12 gram based gun and that narrows things down to only a few models it can be. a PMI-1, PMI-1 DF, or Pursuit Pistol.

Like a PMI-1, Upgraded with the Crosman stock, a Cooper T bolt, an auto-trigger and trigger shoe. The D/F nipple IS a Sheridan item, they used to sell them so you could solder them on yourself. Many common upgrades from "back in the day".
I like it.

I like it.

but it didn't come that way from the factory. correct?

mailmanmike · 10-24-2007, 08:02 PM

it does have a quick strip slot on the right side, and the sight bead looks like the one on my PGP.

I hope that helps. Thanks for all the help so far. If you would like close-ups of anything feel free to ask!

that's a McMurray trademark, so i'd definately assume it was in his hands at some point. the black paint that is flaking off is another sign of it being a McMurray gun. it's either an Annihlator(sp?) or an Avenger i think.

what do the rest of you guys think?

Possibly an Avenger. Regardless if the mods were done by Mac-1 or not, it looks like it was a stock-class PMI-1 originally. I'd like to see better pictures of the feed nipple, but it does not look factory.

You know, the sight bead and the angle of the DF nipple initially made me think 68 Magnum too. But, would someone have really retrofit a constant air magnum back to 12 grams? With that in mind, my vote is still PMI-1.
