Need help ID this PMI KP

[Alexndl]

Found this on Kijiji Canada (only seen few wood and brass sheridan in the last 10 years)

Any help ID which gen KP it is?
And maybe if someone recognise who could have made this?
Lots of mods and look verry clean cuts

Also, how know manufacturing date for those?

That's a BretG Sheridan build. Nice score Alexndl.... 👍

[Axel]

Oh yeah. Nice.

[Alexndl]

Any idea of value to see if I did good?

[Rusty Brass]

Looks like it started life as a KP2 which would put the release date in '87 or '88 IIRC.

Springfeed, elevator sight, quick change... maybe $350-450? Hard to price brass. Especially custom brass.
If you like it and can still feed yourself after buying it then you did great.

[Alexndl]

Thanks for the dates and for the apraisal, thats what I had in mind the value was (but this is a keeper for me, so not for sale)

Thats definitely a BretG style Thadapter and Ladder sight.

Maybe it was also palmerized because of the drop out and spring feed. Check the lower tube under the stock to see if there is a grub screw.

Fasst changer, drop out, thadapter, spring feed, rva.... Yeah. That's a beauty.

Last price I saw him post for that marker in OPPa was pretty low considering... Only issue I saw was he wanted local pick up only.

There's a good chance the owner is on here. I've seen him in several Facebook groups devoted to vintage paintball. That custom brass is pretty niche.

Yes there is a grub screw under the lower tube
Does that mean Palmer work?

I gave him more than his asking price to convince him and I am really glad he accepted. Was looking for one of those for a long time

I asked him his name on the forum and he mentionned he was no longer active (was most probably here at one point)

[Axel]

Awwwww tell him to come hang out even if he doesn't play anymore

Anybody who appreciates brass like that is one of us whether he likes it or no 😆

Usually it does. Thats the easiest way to tell without putting the valve apart.

[Carp]

Since nobody else thought to say it first...




Dibs if you decide to sell. 😁

[Alexndl]

Will keep that in mind, but not planning to sell unless I find a lever action KP...

[BenoitOWN]

Hé finally sold it! It took a while.
the pickup price was low for it and no one grabbed.

[BretG]

Yeah, one I did a long time ago. I think it was a rebarrel, so it might not have the port screw. I never put in the bolt detent holes and always made the side tube longer than normal. I did drop outs and spring feeds too.
