Budd Orr Sniper 1 #415 (price check)

I bought this in 1989 at paintball direct in Homewood illinois I believe (55 now so memory is a tad foggy) just moved and this has been in storage for like 20 years...it has been used has wear an tear with as usual the feed re attached (common issue) has all original parts save the top block screw that came loose during play and was replaced the cocking rod on the block is original...curious what it's worth

Just looked it up direct connect 😆

Picture of the other side?
has it been modified? All stock?

Bacci have one on his site for sale at $800 in really good shape with the Sat Kong vilage sticker and it have not sold in 6+ month.

Not really sure on what it sjould bring exactly (they don't come up verry often).

I would say around $500 - $600 since this one does not seem to be in perfect shape and the market have been soft lately for cocker.

No sat cong sticker
no modifications except where noted with repaired feed tube and screw on the block that puthe the bolt back that allows ball drop

I'd think $600 with the Thompson barrel and Thompson stock. Normally $500 but worth more with those accessories. The only potential issue is the direct feed, which looks almost as if it was repaired? Now that could just be the photos, or due to the gun being a sub-500 serial number so basically a "garage gun", so could be off due to that. But the color of the body doesn't match up with the other anno, so just wondering if it was repaired?

Either way, still cool and still worth what I said.

was this the one on ebay earlier this year?

[Longshadow1226!]

That is a repair after the typical feed tube break off...I had it done by a local welder...I did play the gun (loved it) so the switching of boxes the garage weld broke...think I painted over the weld with black testers paint...I'm sure an expert could file it down before refinishing the bida

I tried to leave it as original as possible but used it!
I was told the stock was originally an M1 stock has a butt plate and Lil door in it for a cleaning kit

[Longshadow1226!]

Never on ebay
Might have asked here in the past...maybe 10 years ago?

[Painthappy]

Then it all makes sense for sure. You rarely see a "Thompson" Sniper 1, so well worth it for someone who's looking for one.

The stock was awesome but where it attached to the gun it was always "wobbly" because it's heavy!

That was the case with all of them that I have handled over the years.

Makes sense, it's only held in by one screw and that screw can't go too deep into the body due to it being under the cocking rod.
