All the dirt you see is real.

These are my PGP's. The Sheridan PGP is a classic paintgun. Simple, reliable, consistent, and built like a tank. Shockingly accurate too . . . much to the dismay of anyone who discounts them because of the age of the design. This particular design has evolved into classics like the McMurray&Sons Annihilator, the Palmer Typhoon, and the Cockers we see a lot of today. I have 3 different PGP's. One is from the mid 1980's, the other 2 from the early-mid 1990's. One is bolt action, converted to that by me. Well . . . the pump broke and I fashioned the bolt action retrofit in about 10mins. It worked so good I figured why bother replacing the pump. And I left it like that when I found I could more easily carry that PGP as a backup setup like that. Note, I did the turnbolt conversion to that PGP long before I got all the PG's I have detailed elsewhere on this site. Since that picture I have modified that PGP into the one you see below.

This is my PGP with a modified frame from Airgun Designs. The frame is one of the older aluminum ones used on older Automags and older WGP Autocockers. I customized it to work on the PGP. I also added an old style aluminum pump to this one to replace the bolt action setup I used to have on it.

This is my oldest PGP. Aluminum pump with the ball detent in it and not in the bolt like my later ones, no markings like the PG's, but it does shoot very nice. I like the aluminum pump better than the plastic ones the later PGP's came with

A simple diagram of what a PGP is. Everyone should get themselves a PGP. At ~$100 new - or often much less used on ebay - they are worth it . . . but it is sometimes hard to convice beginning players of their virtues when there are some many JABB's on the market at about the same price point.
