Matching Autococker/Minimag. Sterling and AKA Excalibur.

[Whirr]

My son just started playing paintball, so I pulled my old gear out of storage. Curious what they are worth? Do not plan on parting with the Autococker, mag or sterling. They each have a lot of fond memories. But would be curious of their value. I have already ordered a rebuild kit for the mag.

But I never really played with the Excalibur. And probably would be willing to sell it.

History of the Excalibur as best I recall.
I bought it used online in early 2003. It was going to be my first electronic marker.
It came with that "speed kills" already on it, I assumed it was a sticker I could remove. It is not, it is either etched into the gun or painted on, not really sure.
I used it once or twice, then it started cycling slow. I reached out to AKA to get it worked on and boxed it up and never sent it off.
It has sat in that box, in a storage crate with the other markers for over 20 years.
I just pulled them out today. The Excalibur had a set of dye grips that I removed, to put a battery in it.
The power switch is stiff to slide, I imagine it has gunk and grime and needs cleaning. The power light comes on(yellow) and it makes a click sound when the trigger is pressed.
I do not have air to connect and if the state of my other markers is any indication all the o-rings are likely shot anyway.
S/N is EX#00265

Thanks.

Cant help with values, but the matching minimag and autococker are magnificent.

sterling about 300
excal my guess is about 800
not too sure on the mag and cocker cause some people go nuts for splash kits.

Did that cocker come from Florida paintball center?

The cuts look like John Gross's work

Not sure, I was never the original owner of anything I owned.

I was the one who sent the mag and cocker off to be anodized.

However, the cocker was already milled when I bought it. When I bought it, it was black with exposed silver any place it was milled.

*Edit to add: The chrome was also not original hardware it was all added after it was anodized.

The Sterling is pretty! Brings back memories.

excal is lasered and $800-1000 maybe. values on these keeps creeping up.

Great collection! love the matching pair

If you can grab a closer photo of the cocker might be able to figure out what you have

That cocker mag pair is the perfect father-son combo.

This was not a kit or package.

I bought what was more or less a milled stock Autococker and changed out the pneumatics over the years. Eventually sent it and the Mag parts off to be anodized.

If I recall front bolt is not stock and opened up to allow more air flow. Regulator input is drilled for more air. I think the valve input is also opened up.

Here is a picture of a blurry old picture of the Autococker taken prior to it getting anodized. This is the only pic I could find.

The machining is definitely looking like fpc/john gross work. Detent and bottom cut is a huge tell.

Id there any engraving under the frame?

Nothing on any of the pieces. Here are more pics of the body shape.
