Hello everyone

I bought this shooting game the other day and it came with all these parts. I was thinking of switching it to space shot.
What do you think?
Thanks

I bought 2 of the Silver Dollar ones in the US, yes I would switch it to space shot, and make some nice space themed stencil graphics instead of the Big Top artwork.
I took the skirt side pieces off mine and they looked much better for it. Space shot is a lot less common and more desirable subject matter.

Should you need parts, Roger Hilden at Crow River Trading is the person to contact. He's the ABT expert in the States and has been for years.

The 1st machine I ever bought at auction was a US Marshall/ Silver Dollar machine, when Steve ran the events at Huntingdon racecourse.
It does not have the side skirts or the prize giving parts and as Moonriver says looks better for it.
I’ve still got the machine because it is so fun to play , with its scoring and ranking.
You start off as a corpse on 0 and with every correct hit you then become a dude, pose member , sheriff, and eventually US Marshall on 10 hits. Fantastic. !SHOOT! !SHOOT!

Thanks. I do need some parts. The machine only has one steel ball left.
