Whats up with PGP's ?

[Soopa Villain17]

well i know alot of people are getting fed up with all the bull asociated with speedball, but why are so many people looking for pgps ? im ordering one tommorro and also getting a p68 , thanks jaan :D , but are they really that good of a pump gun ?

[Maggot6]

They are reliable, cheap, and have a bunch ofaccessories.

The things the PGP has going for it are: it's tiny (about as small as paintball guns get), it's very well made (all metal construction) and it works quite well right out of the box (nice brass barrel).

The things not going for it are: stiff pump stroke stock, clunky magazine (i.e. no feed gate) and somewhat clunky quick change mechanism (several upgrades available for this).

Do you have a Phantom yet?

[maglover728]

PGP's have a great upgrade path for custom minded people. they are simple to work on, and because of their simplicity they will function in conditions where most markers will simply break.

It's one of those things, similar to the mag. Untill you use one you just don't get it. I just picked up my second one the other day.

[scrumpy]

Wow that PGP is cool! ;)

[Wheelman]

would b, if it weren't a CO2 tank.

[warbeak2099]

It's not, it's a 4oz co2 bottle.

[peewee]

If its not broke in send it to palmers for a tune up. You wont believe the difference.

Isnt Palmers where you can send your PGP2's and the "Palmerize" them for like 200...Either way my friend did this...so much nicer....mmmm :hail:

[Ratzo]

I love my P68sc and PGP :headbang:
It's great being able to play all day on $4.
But it generally goes up to$40 when I use my Mags as well.

What does Palmerizing entail?

[SpecialBlend2786]

Palmers can make your PGP into a Stroker, which is semi-auto, closed bolt marker among other things

Also they can add spring fed systems and whatnot. pretty damn cool

Also they can do a plethora of upgrades to PGP's and such

I agree. Mine is a SB Piranha Stroker though.

Hummmmm ... maybe I'll just keep that P68 now :D

Just kidding Soopa, but I already know I'm going to miss it.
