Broken PGP, Can't Fix myself!

pinesftw · 01-19-2008, 02:34 AM

Hey all, Something very dramatic happened, As my mom was carrying a bag up the stairs, My PGP2 Fell out and went through a gap between the Stairs and eventually fell from 2 floors, The Grip frame is bent, The barrel Tip has also Bent. The Feed Cap is Also dead.

I seriously need help. Should I get a new PGP or fix it?

Not sure how well it'll fire afterwards but,you can usually take a dead 12g and put it in the barrel tip and just tap it with a hammer until it rounds back out,the gripframe should be easy enough to replace,the feed plugs from a Pre-2k PGP can be made to work or replaced with a metal speedloader.I'd say try and fix it...contact Bacci Paintball and see what parts he has to salvage it

The barrel can be fixed by cutting it down. Grip frames are cheep, I have one I'd sell on the cheep but it is in Maine (and I'm not), I am sure someone here can help you with that. The plug is the part that's got me. I can't figure out why they made such a ****ty system on an otherwise nearly (as you have proven) indestructible gun.

I second cutting the barrel down. Hell, the gun will probably work just fine even with the bent frame after you cut the barrel a bit.

How can I cut brass with no machining tools exactly? may I have a little help?

This proves This gun is nearly indestructible, Now to find an Agglet's electro that has been tossed off the third floor...

Thanks!,

i use a 1' aluminum rod to re-round a barrel tip, insert and tap with hammer till bore is smooth...it looks like its just the trigger frame bottom thats bent, happens all the time, tap it back into shape...i just sold my last 2k back plug, a few minutes with a dremel and a speedgate from palmers and you'll be better off than before

if you really just want to cut the tip, a simple hacksaw is what i use followed by some fine grit sandpaper

keep this in mind you can replace it for 40-60 easily you can have a few spares form the old gun too.
