Patriot II. Not a good gun. Cast metal parts that fall apart and internals are soft. -
Ah, thank you!
I do like that brass barrel- they didn’t happen to be AC threaded?Tinker-er of many

I'm so confused by this thing. What's under the massive forearm/shroud? What's the pull pin for on the top of the receiver? What's with the vertical asa and that spacer cylinder? It gets worse the more I look at it.Comment

-Nothing, it's just a plastic foregrip. The gun's basically just an STBB, the only thing in that shroud of the front valve plug.Originally posted by 1shot_Dave View Post
-Typical quick-pull pin that retains the one-piece back plug, Pull that, and the hammer/bolt can come out. Same idea several Spyders and other STBBs had.What's the pull pin for on the top of the receiver?
-The factory air setup is just the bottomline hose screwed into that welded bung, much like the original Spyders. In this case, somebody used a female remote-hose end to make an ad-hoc vertical ASA.What's with the vertical asa and that spacer cylinder?
The original bottomline hose is screwed into an elbow that was screwed into the burst-disc hole of the tank. That makes the little 3-1/2 ounce tank into an expansion chamber- an old CO2 trick.
The gun's not AC threaded, the Patriots had their own proprietary threading.
They're not bad guns, though as noted, not long-term durable.
