Any help with value would be appreciated too. Gotta pay a buddy for it and neither of us know the worth. He’s had it since purchased new. -
Its a 1988 or 1989 WGP Sniper 1

Appart from the valve and bolt oring I dont think there other seal in it.
Have you tried to put air in?
if you need to change spring, Nelson spring should work for the valve amd sheridan hammer spring should work.
Value is hard to tell its a collector item.
Serial number bellow 500 would bring a little more in my opinion.

Nice Sniper. Really nice.Comment

It’s number 653. Is it sniper 1 or sniper 2? I don’t have co2 will it operate with hpa?Comment

If the rail is removable and looks like it, it is a sniper 1. Sniper 2's have serial numbers 2000 and higher.
What you have is a Sniper 1, with a Thompson barrel. The back block and bolt is a Sniper 2. Something someone upgraded to make it easier to remove the bolt out the back and clean the gun mid-game.

Yes the rail is removable with two screws. I found the stock barrel and back block in the bag I got with it. That’s awesome. Now to learn to tear it down and rebuild. Thanks for your help I greatly appreciate it. Any idea of value? Gotta pay the friend I got it from and neither or us know the worth. He was a pro player in the late 80s early 90s and gave me this and a annihilator that’s in rough shape.

Codereddy That's a quick pull bolt. It should just pull straight out if you pull on the black piece alone. That will retract the ball bearings holding it in place and allow it to come out. Might be a little stuck from years of being unclean, but that's how it should work.I am the admin...Comment

So I actually replace the constant air line and put a short air line off a junk marker I had and hooked up my hpa tank. It pumped and fired great! Definitely gonna get some o rings and replace them all. I can’t decide wether to buy a smaller hpa tank and run the stock that’s on it or take it off and attach an asa to run a regular tank setup. Any recommendations on an asa that may fit that angled grip?

If it’s really stuck you could try sticking a wooden dowel in the shooting end and tapping the whole thing on the floor *while holding the backblock*Comment

I finally got it out and checked it out and oiled the orings. Reassembled it and put a temporary air line on it and it fired! It had a constant air line, I am going to replace it. Thinking of adding an Asa to run a regular tank set up, do you know of an Asa that would work with that grip? It’s got no holes so I’d have to drill it and it would have to be angled somewhat to put the tank in a straight position. I could always fabricate a block I suppose. -
Codereddy This is a big time classic, if it were mine I wouldn’t change a thing. If you were to want a bottom line, you could get a whole new trigger frame with the screws already tapped and just drop it in.

The issue im having is it has a constant air line that was hooked up to a co2 tank that had a twist valve on top. It won’t work with any of my tanks. I’d like to keep it original as possible while still enjoying playing with it. Im all for buying a smaller hpa tank to slide in the stock to play it as is but I’ll have to replace the air line to attach to normal hpa tanks. What can I use to do that??Comment

Lots of guys around here probably have something like this in the bottom of a parts bin. You can take the colored part out of the cage, screw it on to the existing hose, and now you have an on/off.
