Hector the collector
collected bits of string
collected dolls with broken heads
and rusty bells that would not ring
pieces out of picture puzzles
bent up nails and ice cream sticks
twists of wire, worn out tires
Paper bags and broken bricks
old chipped vases and old shoelaces
gattlin guns that wouldn't shoot
leaky boats that won't float
stopped up horns that wouldn't toot
copper keys that fit no locks
rings that were too small for fingers
dried up leaves and patched up socks
worn out belts that had no buckles
Electric trains that had no tracks
airplane models broken bottles
Three-legged chairs and cups with cracks

Hector the collector, he loved these things with all his soul. More than shinin' diamonds, more than glistenin' gold. Hector called all the people come and share my treasure trunk.

And all the silly sightless people looked at it. And called it junk.

I really need a KP-3

If my tax return had gone in at the time, that woulda been mine! Nice buy though

I got the gun yesterday and it looks like it could've come straight out of a box. The pictures of it on e-bay, really didn't to it any justice. It's much nicer in person. It's got Pursuit Marketing Inc. stamped on the left side, middle of the barrel, like a couple of other guns I have. So I was pretty happy about that. It's leaking, but I knew that, so I'll rebuild it sometime when I get a chance. I'll try to post some pictures of it, in the Sheridan picture thread, soon as I get a chance. :-)

Wow. That was just a great pick up. Are you playing with this or are you maintaining it's pristine condition?

As long as I own this, it will not be played with and I will certainly maintain its pristine condition. I've got other KP-2's, that I can play with, so this one will just stay in my display case. :-)

hhmm, can't tell from the pics but does it have ball bearing holes in the barrel? looks a lot like a pump converted k2... has the same knurled pump handle my k2 had on it when i got it too...

It's got 1 tiny hole w/a tiny ball bearing(not like the standard KP-2 ball bearing holes, on both sides of the barrel), on the left side of the barrel. No ball bearing hole on the right side of the barrel. I also have an early minty K2(serial # in the 8000's), and I got to looking at it and noticed that there are no ball bearing holes on either side of the barrel, where as this gun has that one tiny little ball bearing hole w/a ball bearing in it, on the left side of the barrel. So I really don't think it's a pump converted K2. Just my 2 cents. :-) I got it sealed up yesterday and all put back together and it's holding air. So I'm happy about that! I'll try and get some pictures posted, as soon as I can.

Interesting...

I'd like to see some photos of that. Also, that would be an interesting note to add under the KP2 section on Vintage Rex.
