My experience with this new Sniper is somewhat limited, but I know I'm also one of the first 100 people to play with it. Empire has done a fantastic job assembling this package with barrel kit, on/off ASA, clamping feedneck, autotrigger and spring feed all included. For the money, you will be hard-pressed to find a better value in any new gun, pump or semi.
Despite cold weather paint issues, the new Sniper's performance has been on par with high-end and custom built snipers on the field. The action is smooth (though a bit heavy for this connoisseur) and the handle has a slim, yet ergonomic feel. The frame and grips are comfortable, but its palmswell grips may prove too thick for some players. While the trigger breaks clean and short, it is blade-style, which threw this reviewer off initially. Autotrigger action is smooth enough to consider a powered loader for those intense games, and the clamping feedneck is attractive and sturdy enough to handle any loader you choose. The colors and dust finish available are nice, but still a bit limited. At the time of this review, only gunmetal/black guns are available from the factory. It seems other companies will be anodizing several guns separately of Empire.
While it will be a while (this being November 2011) before the gun is fully released, I can see multitudes of players jumping on the pumpwagon with this new Sniper. The price point is perfect for those not sure about making the jump between throwing a pump kit on a cocker and buying something high-end. The Empire Sniper has established the mid-range in the pump market, and isn't likely to lose its footing soon.

Overall this gun is a great value, you get a lot in the box. It isn't as custom as other high end pumps but it gets the job done well, and is very versatile.

THIS GUN IS JUNK. It looks good the second I can saw it I fell in love. I finally got my hands on one and took it to the field. First game I was chopping paint bad. I took it home and looked in to it. The hammer would lock in before the bolt was all the way back. The other thing I found when I was looking at is was the bolt didn’t travel all the way forward to seat the ball in the barrel. I tried to wrench on it and still couldn’t get it lined up. I like my cheep Kaos pump over the Empire. It’s kind of sad as I’m an Empire fan, I have an Axe, pants, jersey, mask, and tank but I won’t be shooting an Empire Sniper Pump.

I'm relatively new to pumps but owned a CCM S6 and an Empire Sniper back to back and absolutely loved both. The Sniper though for the price is an absolute steal. Barrel kit is by far my favorite barrel kit out due to longer insert type barrel backs and the hitman mod, 45 degree reg macro fitting, and stock class feed addon are all perks Empire didn't have to include. Highly recommend this marker!

Barrel kit, AT, stock class and open class opition
Cons:
One color. Barrel kit sizes
Pros- great gun for the price. Comes with .675-.680-.685 barrel backs along with a stock class feed tube. It also comes stock with an auto trigger kit.
Cons- One color option. Also I think the barrel kit should have a bigger bore size (.689 or .690). But that's about it
Overall it's a good pump gun.

Empire SniperI just got it and I really like it. The good thing about pump gun is that I'm getting to work on my shooting and being able to have better aim
