    Worr Game Products (WGP) is a manufacturer of paintball markers and equipment based originally in Corona, California. It is best-known for its Autococker line of paintball markers. Founded in 1987 by Bud Orr ("Worr" is a play on Orr's last name) out of his garage, WGP is one of the oldest companies in the sport. Bud started out making Nelson clone pumps, first the Commando and then the Ranger. He later decided to switch to a more versatile design, at which he started making Sheridan clones with removable barrels, dubbed the "Sniper." Orr later attached pneumatics to the front of the Sniper II, and the Autococker was born.

    This is a quote from Wicapedia,

    The Ranger was out before the sniper, I was there and I still have mine.

    I passed on the Commando because it was a little crude. My Ranger no sports an 18 inch boomstick and still hits the field a couple times a season. She's 20 years old and still got a little game left!

    Remember guys I'm so old when I played we didn't use inflatables we hide behind sleeping T-Rexes! That was an extreme sport! haha

    Don't mean to offend, I just wanted to keep it straight. Heck my first rental fleet was PGP's and KP-1 Rifles. Those were 12 gram 15 shot bolt action versions of the what would become the KP-3
    I thought it went Commando - Sniper - Ranger? The Ranger being the re-entry into the Nelson market to satisfy the lower price point?

    The dates on Vintagerex seem to line up, and also seem to line up with my recollection. I was "there" as well but I was young. When I started reading APGs I believe Rangers were new guns and the Sniper was already out a while.

      I'd probably say Sterling , if we're talking available pump guns besides what's been mentioned.

      Pump stroke like no other in a small tiny versatile package. Easy to customize too.

      This is an older one with a 'Cocker frame using a Mag benchmark trigger. A DM5 clamping feedneck , low volume valve , high flow bolt , milled to take an ASA dovetail/rail and a few other things.



      Lot of it's just personal preference.

      I've got snipers I love , Phantoms too.

      Not a huge Carter fan.

      Original Lapcos were nice , the new frankenGhost , not so much.

      AM Illusions , also pretty nice all around. Pretty close to a Sterling in a bigger package.

      Of course there are others.
