Palmers Service: Tools Required?

[un2xs]

What tools are required for servicing Palmers (PPS) guns? I have never taken any Sheridan apart. For reference, I have PGP, Stroker, Typhoon, and a Houndstooth that all need service. I have guns with SNs under and over the magical P500 number. This has been a "when I get to it" project so I ordered parts several years ago.

SOMEWHERE I have a Sheridan tool, but will most likely need to acquire another one.

I have a Harbor Freight heat gun. Will this suffice or is a propane torch recommended?

I havemechanic sized standard and metric wrench sets. I may have to purchase smaller if needed.

What other tools should be at hand?

What references do you recommend, either here, YouTube or elsewhere?

Are there any Sheridan/PPS experts near Manhattan, Kansas? I think the closest maybe in KC.

Thanks

And a punch set.

Yes! Forgot about those.

I also use a 5c Collet and collet block to grip the vertical ASA. They like to red loctite them in so it can be a fight without the collet.

Check out the below links if you don't mind the inexpensive route:

I can't remember the diameter of the VASA but just buy one that is the same size.

Cheap is good - thanks for the links! I'll grab some next time my folks are headed to their PO box in NY, shipping should be substantially less.

If you search around, you can probably find a Canadian supplier for these. They are a fairly common item
