Maker of body

[jaysun]

Hoping someone might be able to identify the maker of the body of this Mini-cocker


Or is it just a modified WGP?

Modified wgp... Doesn't look like anything known shops would do

Agreed garage edition Mini-Cocker. Big tell is if the SN# on the other side is cut off that will imply it was a full bodied that was cut down. Never really understood cutting those huge windows in the inner workings of a marker, just invites getting crap in there.

Because you can see things move cool! +1 points

Because you can get sand grit and goo in the body destroying it -1000 points

I wonder how many players over the years has pinched their finger tips probing those windows while firing?

I agree it look garage job but some of the cuts look somewhat similar to this one on paintball history (similar rail and window)

My friends and I did similar stuff in high school metal class. Blatantly ripping off ideas from APG, and then selling them as "super custom".
Since people were painting their stuff with enamel back then, it made it even easier.
I doubt you can even bring a paintball gun to school now.

I did that too in 99/2000..... Machined my first cocker in a high school metal shop

The custom paint-pen job is a nice touch.

Thanks for all your help. I googled Autococker serial numbers and didn’t help much, looks like 28770 stamped into the front block. So maybe between 95 and 96

Serial Numbers are stamped into the body so if you found it on the front block almost definitely done by who did the modifications. So that means it was a full body that was cut down to a Mini body and that serial number is definitely in the '95 to '96 realm and most likely more likely '96.
