This has been my main stay for 10 years. This is a limited
edition Bad Boyz Toys Removable Barrel Typhoon made for the
Florida Annihilators, lo those many years ago. A Palmer's Typhoon
is rare enough. A Removable-Barrel variant with custom
fitted J&J barrels is a collector's item. Not only that, it is
a very straight-shooting, reliable collectors item, whose nickel
finish takes abuse unscathed and whose accuracy will become feared
on your field. The barrels have a retention bolt on the right side
of the gun. Push the barrel in all the way, tighten the retention
bolt, and you are good to go.
Looking for an alternative to Autocockers, but still want to
have closed-bolt accuracy? The Palmer Typhoon is the way to go.
Aside from inhumane accuracy and incredible reliability, one of
the most enjoyable aspects of owning this gun is that no one else
has one. The hex-nut velocity adjustment right in the back of
the gun will get you dialed in and on the field before the cocker
boys have even unscrewed their cocking pin.
Since I was planning to sell it (my wife is due in May with our
first child - a baby boy!), it recently went back to Palmers' for
a full tune-up.
Aside from all
the cool standard typhoon stuff, this comes with:
- 12 in. J&J Whisper Death Hardchromed Barrel (super
quiet)
- 11 in. J&J Spiral Vented Brass Barrel
- 10 in. J&J Muzzle-braked Brass Barrel
- Pro-touch trigger
- 2-finger trigger
- Vertical bottle adaptor
- Budd Orr Regulator (old-school, internally adjustable)
- Macroline to bottom-line
- motorized viewloader
- 16 ounce
tank with a SmartsParts On/off Valve.

Standard Verticle-bottle Typhoons start at $585. Put in the
extras and you are looking at $800 and time on the waiting list.
Put in your bid, and I promise that you won't be
disappointed.
Supremely accurate. It won't shoot faster than the new
electronics, but they always seem to leave the field faster too!?!
