Help for a friend - Psycho Ballistics Cocker

[SteRoberts]

My friend asked about the Psycho Ballistics Lightning Delux on fatbobs - http://www.fatbobspaintball.co.uk/acatalog/Psycho_Ballistics.html asking me if its a good gun.

I was like, well its an autococker, and from what ive heard they are good (my eblade is performing well thus far) but are a bstard when they go wrong. And i told him id do some research.

However the picture does not have a foregrip. Is that what the regulator is on my eblade? So would that have to be bought seperately?

It all seems a bit fiddly to me, would anyone reccomend the '04 WGP cocker over it? or perhaps another entirely different gun in a similar price bracket. He is just getting into paintball, so he will prolly be open to anything.

Thanks - Ste.

You can do alot better than that for £250 I reckon.
Plus you will need an inline reg and an air system.

Second hand angel LCDs go for that price in the classifieds on this site.



Edit Technically it isnt an autococker, as I believe the body was not made by WGP.
Notice the word cocker is conspicuous by its absence from the description.

Yeah...not a WGP gun, so not Cocker...not electro either...as has been said, he would do better to buy secondhand....maybe an Angel or an Impulse etc...not forgetting that air and hopper etc would be required....or just get a credit card, and buy something with muchos speed and bling, from a reputable dealer...so not an SP gat.

ok thanks guys, i was under the impression that an autococker was the way it worked (cocking rod, moving back block abd 3 way hoses at front and stuff) and not the way it looked.

Ill have a chat to him and try and let him know whats what, ill steer him away from that gun tho. Buying an inline reg aswell as air would just cause trouble.

Actually Autococker, is the way it's named!! Sniper was pump operated...then they made the Autococker from that, replacing the pump arm, with the rams n whatnot...

When they are E gripped..they are actually quite simple..as whatever is wrong, can only be down to a few things.
