    That's amazing. Nice gun, especially with one of those early PPS Rock Regulators on it.

      Thanks. I picked it up on the forum here about a year ago from Loophole. I know nothing of its history otherwise. Eventually I'll go through it and get it running.

    The information that Bud told me about sniper 1 conversions to cocker was interesting.

    - A good bunch of them were made for staff and sponsored teams to test the concept prior to releasing the cocker because they had older back inventory of sniper 1 bodies to hack on.

    - A few were commercially converted when they offered that but they stopped offering that fairly quickly.

    oh.... And hears mine fore good measure.

    This was bought from a wgp tech at an event by a BBT employee prior to the auto cocker being public knowledge.

    I left it as bought from the second owner granted it he's some modern parts. You can see the BBT feed vents and wire detent.wotk.
    That LPR was on there that long ago?

    Love this thread! Slab sided cockers are so purdy IMO, and I love the gen 1 round top body!

      Pics or it didnt happen.....
      Best pic I have online at the moment:



      Been meaning to do a proper write-up of it, I've had the dang thing some thirty years now, and it was the first marker I ever milled- and my first custom gun, period.

      It's still set up nearly exactly like that, although I made a nice oak stand for it, and it's been a mantlepiece gun longer than it was ever on the field.

      (And before anybody gives me grief over the air system, Dave Youngblood himself had a nearly identical setup on a polished-silver 'Cocker at the '96 ESPN exhibition game. )

        Just love the look of that gun. Classic.

        I can't imagine anyone giving you grief about the air setup when VERTICAL 20oz tanks were common at the time :-)

        I used to rock a 40oz tank on my Sniper 2. You'll never hear me complain about anyone using a big bottle!
