May 9th pump day, need a pump?

I dont want to get anyones hopes up because the 9th is mothers day so I dont know if I can make it for sure (I will try to find out ASAP)

I have 5 Tippmann SL-68 II pumps, as some of you make know I couldnt get any working right (They had been sitting untouched for 5-10 years).

I bought o-ring kits and rebuilt them all, so they air up and fire great now. Last time I could only get 2 to air up but they wouldnt chrono very high (low 200's). the other 3 I dont know because they leaked terribly. But I read you could put a spacer in the valve spring and get some more FPS out of them (though NEW springs would probably be best, but taht cant happen by sunday).

Anyway, I will try to accommodate anyone if they need a pump for the day, just let me know. Again, I will try to get a deffinite answer about mothers day.

Who knew sock monkeys could be so nice???

Oh wow!
I don't need to borrow one, but I'd love to try one if you get one or more holding air and at 250-ish fps.

EDIT: I might need to borrow one. I'm trying to get my nephew out of the house for some pump action.

I have aired up the three I have installed the kits in, (only takes 15 minutes maybe) and they aired up and shot great. As for FPS I dont know.

Norm, would it be OK if I came by Saturday and tested and got the SL's shooting good?

Also if it turned out I couldnt make it, I could leave a couple with norm maybe? and just have you return them at the end of the day. I should know tomorrow though, if I can make it or not.

Thanks for asking first - I'll have customers for a private event and it's their day, so they come first. AKA we'll need to work around them.

Stop in before 9:00 am They should not be around until after.

And I have no issue with you leaving them with me for someone to use.

Yeah, I noticed a confirmed private event, so I wanted to make sure first. BEFORE 9 ON A SATURDAY?!?! ?!? thats like impossible!!

Like I said, I should know tomorrow if I can make it. If anyone wants to use one for the day let me know by friday/saturday morning and I can leave it with norm if I cant make it sunday.
