Chrome Fred Schultz Minimag

[Andrum85]

Hey everyone, hoping someone can help me out, I picked up a chrome minimag in a deal, it has a purple splash rail, duckbill, plug, and a barrel sleeve that says Fred Schultz on it. I am trying to figure out if these kits use to be sold like this? And how much this gun might be worth?image.jpg

100 - 150.

Added a better pic, thanks for the price but I know the standard minimags are going for, I'm guess I'm mainly just looking for the history of the anno body kit and if it adds value

[BTAutoMag]

it does but I'm not sure how much. That kit is about as rare as you get. Yours is the first I've seen in a LONG time.

There are few people on here that know lots about splash kits. I am not one but I have never seen one of those before. Does the barrel sleeve come off?
I would say it is probably worth $250 or more.

[Andrum85]

The sleeve does come off and also the rail is pump milled

[Jergs]

The rail on this gun is also factory milled for a pump kit as an added bonus, and the barrel sleeve does slide off.

In case it seems wierd that I know this, I also have an interest in this gun as I went in half-sies when this was bought, so I am just as interested in finding out the info on this one. It look ten times more amazing in person, the anno just doesn't show up well in pics.

Edited: he beat me to that info

i'd rock the hell out of that gun.

Tom wrote a great post about Fred Schultz here.... http://www.automags.org/forums/showt...-from-the-Past

The post shows that Tom really appreciated what Fred Schultz did for the sport of paintball. Sure, it is pretty much a standard minimag with anodizing and laser engraving, but when you hear the story of who Fred Schultz was as a person, the value increases. It might not be a million dollar paintball gun, but I think you should be able to get good money from a collector.

dont worry, I will be squeezing Fred for information when I talk to him.

Yah that was the first thing I read after I got this gun, and just the other day I watched the Disney game which has Fred using a minimag that looks very similar, I got into paintball to late to really know the name but have heard it a few times and it is very cool to own something that seems so rare and part of paintball history.

[BTAutoMag]

Not even a part of histroy. You own history. Fred was an amazing person

When do you think you will talk to him?

[Andrum85]

Even better, so you have contact with Fred?

It's too pretty to use! Haha. I actually bought another chrome Minimag just to able to use one so I wouldn't chance killing this one.
