all full autos are actually ILLEGAL by law in the uk.
as for why cockers cost so much, its coz they are so damn fast....and anyone that tells you a cocker can fire at 20 bps is prob lieing by the way, im pritty sure that 22 has been done under test conditions certainly aint the norm

what is this cocker you have seen?

Yeah, full auto is only legal in specially sanctioned scenerio games, and those are VERY few. And any standard 'cocker will NEVER shoot 20 bps. The adverstised max bps on a stock cocker is like 14 bps. The only way you might hit 20 is if you have an eblade set up like an angel. 'Cockers really aren't that expensive. A stock 2k3 vertical feed will only run you about $340. They cost that much because they're good, better than just about anything else you can buy in that price range IMO. Look at most of the pro tournament teams, what do they shoot? The majority are angels, and second is 'cockers.

Or if you buy a racegun and set it at full auto. Racegun has dune 20bps.

Yeah, and then you can get kicked off of your field, because as mentioned full auto is illegal at ALL tournaments and 99% of other games.

The hopper you're describing was prob a ricochet 2k, They have an led on the back. To the best of my knowledge, I didnt think merlin made and full guns, they made bodies that you can build an autococker out of. However, I'd like to also state my opinion. Unless you're trigger is set to bounce, no man woman or child can pull a trigger 25 times a second for a string on semiauto. It is rare that one can do about 20bps, so it really doesnt matter what speed the gun can recharge, but rather how fast the player can pull. So if you can walk your trigger to 19 bps, great. Honestly noone is gonna be able to notice a difference between a gun shooting 19 and a gun shooting 22 bps. It just sums down to a lot of paint.
