New sniper inbound...

[MondoMor]

(also known as a "pump Autococker")

Traded for my Automag RT, and should be here by Monday (maybe Friday!)

Halfblocked, CCM deluxe pump, karnivore reg and 90° ANS frame.

My PGP and Maverick aren't bad, but they just don't feel right. I can always get behind anything with 'cocker lineage, though. :)

[Carlito]

very nice. But I'm not sure I'd like the 90 frame, maybe I'm just used to the 45.

[MondoMor]

I've never tried a 90° either. I've got a cheesy plastic single-trigger 45 frame if it doesn't work out.

[Drachen]

The 86* frames are nice, and do take a little bit of getting used to. If more people besides CCM made single finger 86* frames, I think it would catch on better. But the CCM ones are a bit on the spendy side.

Nice looking sniper though Mondo. Can't wait to see it in person ;)

[AKA]

Looks Tight! But the RT? I hope it was'nt even steven!:eek:/AKA

[Erndogg]

With the amount of pump kits on the market, you can get kits for fairly cheap (20-30).

It was. :(

The market is in the toilet right now, especially for RTs. I probably could have moved the RT for $150, which is annoying because I've easily got $300 into it (paid $225, had to replace a bunch of parts).

Halfblocked snipers with decent parts tend to move more easily - I could turn this around for $200 pretty quickly, and maybe for a little more once people start having money again. If I need cash in a hurry in the next months, it won't take forever to sell.

I perfer the heavy Bad arse Sniper rifle myself. since I was a kid I was infactuated with the m16. I got a Armotech wg65 for a first Marker(still have it) Then I saw th 50 cal.Barret M82A1 on the Millitary Channel(Extreme Weapons Epesode) I was In love. I had Frank(ISH) make me the opps gear version. Semi Auto was cool th first year ,then I need it faster, I will retire with my Armotech wg65 and My tippman98c M82a1. no need for another Marker. I always Liked the Uzi or Mack 10. Maybe a tm7 might be the ticket.
Jamie's Motto.... Don't matter what marker you have If your quite and Patient enuf ,you can shoot them in the butt with any kind of Marker. I just love it when newbs think thier out of range. then I light the up 12 balls a second. Hehehe. So,I guess I'm more of a Sniper heavy gunner.
I remember at GBG final battle when i was in the tippman tower. i had a guy yell at me, their to far ,save your paint. I Yelled back. Thats why I got him out. I hate it when people tell me to save my paint. My paint I'll waist it if i want to. LOL

[MondoMor]

This isnt' that kind of sniper. :)

Since the body was originally an Autococker, it traces its lineage back to the Snipers Bud Orr made (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autococker#History) in his garage more than 20 years ago.

Most people call them "pump Autocockers", but semantically at the heart of every Autococker is a Sniper. old:)




It arrived last night. I dry-fired a few times to get an idea for how well it worked, and then proceeded to completely disassemble it into its component parts. It's a disease...

[Krutsie]

I understood the History Leason , could you repeat that in English. LOL . Just funnin with ya Mondo.

[slick assasin]

Love the half blocks. I'm working on putting together my second (dream) sniper. Should have it together in a month or so, I just need to make up my mind on a body.
You'll have to let me shoot the half block sometime, I'm thinking about a half block but I'm not sure if I'd want one for sure or not.
Sick gat you got yourself though!

[MondoMor]

I've always preferred artfully-done mid-blocks, but halfies are really light. I kind of wish the previous owner had gone the whole way with a mini and midget mod. But those are almost too small...

It shot really nice on the chrono range!

There's a really good chance I'll be at Splat Tag's Customer Appreciation dealio on the 19th, and you're welcome to try it out then.

[Bunker Busters]

...sorry for the thread jack Mondo :p...

[MondoMor]

Those P-block cocker bodies (Prostock?) are pretty. I'm not completely sold on the ANS 86 degree frame, Bunker Busters, so I may be willing to swap.


Still wanna swap regs, Drachen? :)

[Bunker Busters]

I'm gonna go with the CCM 86*........I just found where to get one to ;) J/K very nice S6dribble:)

mines the superstock but the 05 prostocks did have the same body, they were not drilled though.

[Drachen]

Yeah Mondo, I'll still trade regs with you. The stock ccm regs look better on ccm markets than a cp any day lol.

Out of all the WGP bodies, the 05 prostock/super stock is among my top three bodies. You got a nice sniper there bb
