So, the day after my Outkast Sniper II arrived, I got another nice little (okay, it was kinda big) package in. What was inside?
  :)
A nice comparison:
 Anyone want to take a guess as to why this number is significant?
 The guts:
  Back block mojo ain't got a thing on this. It's a solid hunk of aluminum:
 My thoughts on it? It's gonna be fun to use this thing! Not to crazy about the pump stroke, and I can fix that. Just requires me to do some drilling, so I'm hesitant. The bolt is really nice for what it is, and will be nicer when I polish it. I'd like to replace the old WGP hinge with a slider, as I LOVE the feel of a nice slider, and the barrel is an old J&J stainless barrel I had. The pump kit on it now is Hooptie, but I've got the original WGP kit as well.
As I said, it's gonna be a blast using her!

The serial number is your birthday--04/01/1990. Have fun with it. Nice to see a classic floating around here. ------------- Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good. |

Not my birthday, but maybe the markers!
The SN puts it at 1990. This sucker is OLD!

Hey, coming into the world in 1990 does not make you old.

i forgot how those guns were not really mill'd much, just a solid block of aluminum with a couple of holes in it lol.
i allways thought you were older, odd. but yea thats pretty old for a paintball gun (just makes it more fun). -------------
