    Look what I bought... now what is it?

    Got this beast by way of Still Gar and curious to learn bit more about it. I know it's a PPS semi auto over under that was built for HPA, other than that not too sure what I have here, except a big ass grin on my face!

    Ho my ... 🤤 ...
    I think you got most of it ... "Nasty" something or other ...

    Does it shoot/cycle/hold air?
    How does it feed?
    Love my brass ... Love my SSR ... Hard choices ...

      Not sure, I'm out of air right now. I've been told to set the trigger finger to slow as it's an over under and possible to chop the first ball dropping into the lower barrel.

        Even worse you can chop both barrels and have twice the mess

      Tbis is too cool. But that ball having to fall through the top barrel is ugly. I always figured they a feed by the top barrel into the side of the bpttom barrel.

        Same here 😅
        I have one on my bench in progress ... And got a K-frame to mount on it ... Just a dream build ...
        Over/under is a "one day" gun ... Definitely on the bucket list ...

        I supplemented my double urge with my double trouble ion. Its no brass, but with my WALZ build in the oven, and a viper on the line locally. I can live with my double not being brass. Lol. Look forward to seeing your build.

        Sounds like a great lineup 👍
        And thanks, I need to finish my "PGP" first ... Actually it just needs a bolt ... Somehow I can't find the motivation/energy (mental) to finish it ...

        I was dreaming of feeding a double barrel with one feedneck like that and posted about it in older Mcb versions. Is that fed by one feedneck?

          It certainly appears to be only one feedneck. I remember back in the day Drum showed off his over/under nasty hurricane and I'm pretty sure it had two feednecks one for each barrel. Kind of odd only having one feedneck but in theory it should work.

            It does have only one feedneck... both balls feed from the top down.

              That's a pretty specific closeup! Do you have this gun right now?

              It looks like the way the detent positions the bottom ball, the top ball sits slightly back. If both bolt faces are even with each other , the top bolt should make contact first ,and cause the top ball roll upwards a bit before chambering, I think. If the top bolt face is slightly longer, that might help even more with chambering......hmm, very neat design! And I want one now!

            Can't imagine the rate of fire could get very fast feeding that way. Still I like how it gets rid of an entire hopper while still being a double barrel.

              I think you're right that this might be chop friendly, if you lean into the trigger too much.....but if this thing could chug along at a leisurely 5 balls per second without chopping, the victim would be experiencing the hailstorm of 10 balls per second, wouldn't they!

                For the dozen or so shots I got off before it started leaking (PPS amm-i-right?), yes, I would agree. But if I can get it around 3 bps, it's really 6bps, right? That's basically 5.5, which I've heard is popular with kids these days.

                I'm planning to run it with a 50 round hopper and my 10 round tubes in an old ammo box harness and one if those 22ci 2" inch ninja tanks, if I can find one. The 26ci is a bit too short.

                  So this gun was commissioned by one of my friends, who has an excellent and expensive taste for weird paintball guns. I remember when he first got it, and brought it out to a scenario. He usually ran it with a small CO2 tank and a cram n' jam feed. I got to shoot it once, and was pleasantly surprised how well it fed and shot, and we had some small paint that day.

                  I agree with the idea that ROF is pretty limited, but who cares? that's not why you got it. Very cool and unique piece.

                    Yeah, I actually connected with him via FB messenger and he filled me in on its history. Pretty cool little gun, I'll probably mostly be using it while role playing at RKE games and as a medic in others.

                    Can PPS build an over under like this , single hopper, but in a typhoon based gun? Are they using smaller bore brass nowawdays?

                      I would say yes - this one was built on a Typhoon "chassis", it has the mounting spot for a conventional gripframe. If I remember the marking methods correctly this one appears to have.685 barrels (2 rings machined into the end of the barrel).

                      I sense a fire sale in the near future. 😉

                        yea, a pps custom gun order would create some sticker shock, maybe just a little bit!
