"Your Father's Sheridan PG. This is the paintgun of the stock class player. Not as clumsy or random as a semi. An elegant paintgun for a more civilized style of play."




Through good fortune I have come across a number of Sheridan Top Tube PG's. Many will mistake these for being PGP's - they aren't, they preceded them. The last P in PGP stands for 'pump'. PG's are turn bolt paintguns. Yep, slow rate of fire - hella old school. But damn fun. ;)







The one with the wood grips is the first one I came across. Its a real nice shooter, I get 20 strong shots per CO2 capsule and it is (like all PG's/PGP's) surprisingly accurate. I had to replace some seals in it but that is no big deal, not when you consider that these paintguns are getting close to 20yrs old.



This is the 2nd one I stumbled upon . . . it is the oldest of the lot. You can tell by the ramp front sight it has. The front magazine plug is also larger than later sheridans such that the magazine only holds 9 paintballs.



Here is the lot of them. 6 in all. I keep an eye out for them, and for the truly elusive side tube PG. I need one of them to round out my collection.
