If you have the cash, i would take this guys advice. Out of the box stock cockers are actually amazingly good, and dead upgradable. everyone will tell you how acurrate they are and easy to maintain they are. What are you playin with now? and which team have you joined?

Cockers

Dan,

If you can aford a Cocker, then do get one, I have an eclipse mini-cocker and am very happy with it (If you can't then look out for one second hand). Don't get a cocker before you have tried the trigger, it takes some getting used to (you have to pull it all the way back, and then all the way forwards, then repeat (real fast))some people have a problem "short stroking" with single and/or double trigger cockers.

BTW a Cocker is a semi automatic just like a tip-man, and all other tournament grade markers in this country (turbo/automatic is illegal).

Cheers

Richard

P.s. Cooks, are the pimps going to be at the Diablo?
