Pump PMI Piranha

[capitalpaintball]

In my quest to pump as many semis as possible, I wanted to do a Piranha. They never really took off in my area. As a semi it had a lot of nice features that should have made it more popular then Spyders.
this is an early model but has a beautiful anno. I had wanted to get a vert feed but this one came with the single trigger frame, gas thru, and bottom line making it ideal for pump. Not bad for $40

That looks really good! How smoothe is the pump stroke on one of those?

A "Pirump" sick! Jw'd, Is the pump guide rod custom made, or what kit happens to work on the Piranha front block?

[capitalpaintball]

The pump guide is custom built, I would have rather had a lp chamber on the front to work with but the early Piranhas didnt come with it.
the pump rod was a piece of round stock that i cut, threaded and bent to fit. also replaced the rear cocking handle to a solid bar stock and tapped a thumb screw for field stripping.

Do it… if you build the they will come

Looks great, did you use the cut a groove in the hammer method?

grooved the hammer and changed the valve pin to a solid shaft.
