why are calling the update function from start? its done for you..

are you attaching this script to the object you are deactivating? if so you shouldnt because when you deactive an object you deactivate the script as well

If that script is on the object itself, then it won't work. The thing is, Update() is NOT called on inactive objects.

You might want to try detecting the mouse Up

 void Update()
     {
        if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(1))
        {
          Sniper.SetActiveRecursively(false);
        }
        if (Input.GetMouseButtonUp(1))
        {
          Sniper.SetActiveRecursively(true);
        }
     }
