Canadian newbie

[Chris Adams]

Hello all! Greatings from Canada. I have been invlolved in paint ball since the late 1990's havent played much in the last 10 years, but getting back into it a bit now the kids are getting older. The main part of the hobby I like is to mess around with the old markers. Autocockers are my thing. I love building them, tune them up, play with them a bit, then take it apart and build something else. lol kinda my version of Legos. Seeing as I have recently bought a couple of guns out of Europe (I like Eclispe and Evo cockers the best) I figured I would come and visit the forums over here.

Good evening fine sir! Whats your favourite cocker?

Welcome buddy!

Wow thanks for the warm welcome guys. Favourite cocker? Well the first place of course goes to the Evo X (with slide trigger of course) I could see an arguement being made that the eclipse F2 may have been as close to perfection as possible. After that hmmmmmm I really like my AKA revenge for the neat design, quality and the location of the 3 way rod (in the middle). I have a dark secret I hate to admit, but I can trust you guys right? lol I actually like the ANS line of guns. Look good, everything is made by ANS, not just the body, cheap to buy and parts are plentiful. Just had good Luck with them. There feel better now I'm out of the closet LOL In the end it is the tune that makes the gun for the most part.

Still got a few on my list yet to buy, dye reflex, eclipse mechanical, shock tech SFL and sadly I do not have an Evo X yet, only been able to mess around with a buddies so far. For that one I will be heading to your WTB section shortly.

oooh SFL would be a nice one to collect! I always liked the Evo X (only with the slider!) and the Eclipse Banzai splash shiney shiney is always a head turner!

My first ever gun was a cocker, but have shot and used many over the years.
