Palmers Typhoon

[Peejay_t]

Hey guys it’s me again. I’ve decided I’d entertain some offers on the typhoon so that I can add to our spoiled 3 year olds Christmas fund instead. All I know about the marker is that it leaks down the barrel. As much as I would like to add it to my collection, I’ll never use it and would like someone to enjoy it and appreciate it. $350Obo + shipping, also, this marker is heavy as you know so shipping will probably be sort of hefty

Someone will probably come say forum rules state you must post a price. So you could just put a higher number and OBO.

I totally thought it did. I apologize!

I'd be on this if I didn't already have a leaking typhoon *shrugs*

[OpusX]

Are there NOT leaking phoons? 🤣

[chplnstone]

true, I bought mine with the claim of leak free, immediately rebuilt it, ran great for a few years but now leaking somewhere in the lpr... may have to make it a winter project

I miss my craig palmer typhoon. I wonder who has it

[Hairball1969]

Still around?

[Painthappy]

Good question, heck I might want it.

Ok, I've never dealt with too much palmers stuff, someone tell me what's going on here. Is this pneumatic assist pump I'm looking at? Or semi mechanical? If it's semi, what's the difference between the typhoon and blazer?

It's a semi. These were built out of Sheriden markers sold by PMI, PMI 1, PGP, etc. With different designations depending on which marker it was based on. The Blazer was built from the ground up made out of aluminum with internal airways for the pneumatics and the 3way is hidden internally.

How is it 3500$ then?

Looks like a space is missing.... "$350Obo + shipping". It reads like "$350 Obo + shipping" to me.😉

Typhoons are semi-auto.

The differences are in construction. Typhoons are based on a Sheridan rifle (Glenn favoured the .20 cal pellet rifles) but automated, with pneumatics essentially grafted on to make it semi. The 3way is inside the gripframe and connected to the trigger via a bellcrank arrangement, the ram is inside a housing soldered onto the side of the body, and the LPR built into the front of the lower tube.

Blazers are a clean sheet design, with everything integrated into the body extrusion.

Can you put an eblade one this and make it full?

Snowpuff - short answer is no, long answer is not without a bunch of custom parts and pieces.
