Well, I finally got mine together the way I want it for now, so its time I got this thread going. I know we have at least a handful of people on here that have Snipers, so lets all post them up. Just to clarify for those who don't know, a Sniper is best described as a "Pump Autococker / 'Cocker Clone". DeTrev is gonna tell me how this is improper, but I don't feel like typing out a history lesson for the sake of clarifying what this thread is supposed to be :). Anyways, I think I'd like to do this as a forum competition style thread. That is, I will pick 5 judges using my consience as a guide... No really new members will be judges (looking for 5 regulars, hopefully), and picks will be at my discretion. Other than that, judges will be first-come, first serve. I need 5 judges, so post up if you want to be a judge. Judges may not even have to be used, however; they will only be called upon if the total entries exceed more than 5 members. Judges: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Please post up your pictures by or on September 30th. I will ask judges for their nominees if we get more than 5 people posting up their Snipers within the first week of October, and the official voting thread will go up after that time and run until the end of October. Simple enough, I hope. Winner gets bragging rights :). Also, please limit entries to one Sniper per person. Feel free to post up more if you have more than one, but clearly signify which one you'd like to be entered for the competition. Also, please post all related specs you'd like people to know. All that said, here's my newly created Sniper after about a months worth of ordering parts and tuning:   Specs: WGP Prostock Body Smart Parts Freak barrel system, running a .684 insert right now to stop those rollouts WGP Standard pump kit Air America Vigilante copy vertical regulator off of a Promaster Homeade hitman mod from previous owner (it was purple before though, strange.) Alamo City Paintball delrin bolt and pullpin KAPP lightweight milled backblock Some random slider frame with roller sear, hand polished the trigger plate, pretty smooth for what it is. Dye Sticky grips WGP Torpedo drop forward CCM beavertail Shocktech Phat hammer, hand polished. Medium weight valve spring, light main spring. May need to go to heavy valve spring, my IVG is dialed most of the way out at sweet spot. And I think thats it. I still have more to come with this, in particular a new valve and CCM pump kit, but this is what I'm leaving it at for now. Might add a new cocking rod and detent just because as well. -------------

I'll consider extending if more people need to wait. Post up your old ones anyways if you want.

The Autoclocker with pump kit. Keeping to form on this gun, the pump kit is 100% scratch made. Delrin pump handle, internal spring, brass pump rod. -------------
