      If I had a nickel for every Palmer gun I've seen with o-rings turned to goo, I could afford to send one to PPS for a refurb. 😆


      Beautiful gun you have there.

            That seems like an unnecessary amount of parts...

          Dang so you are the one who got it. That’s gonna be an awesome piece once you get it in shape. I put a few bids on it but couldn’t keep bidding up.

              What lube would do that to O-rings??

                It's not the lube, it's the specific material used for the o-rings. the black polyurethane seals that PPS used to use will do this over time as the poly breaks down. Now with most people using HPA instead of CO2 we are using Buna-70/90 seals more at the shop and only using polyurethane when required for CO2 compliance with parts.

              Happen to take more picks of it during rebuild I have one on its way from another member and i assum it will be goo.

              also unles I’m mistaken the orings are goo cuz they originally used poly which Basically lasts 5 years max. I could be wrong as misunderstood Craig when I asked about it.

                I did not get any additional pictures. Are you looking for something specific?

                  Hurricane 3ways are sealed units and can't be rebuilt, as far as I know.

                If you're up to it, could I get some pictures of the stock's internal cuts? I have a stockless 'Cane in the mail and a KP stock also on the way and no clue on what I'll need to remove to get one into the other.
