Select Fire AutoCocker

I understand. But really though, don't you think that if WGP starts to integrating the parts of their cocking mechanism into the body they will step on Palmers toes a bit? I mean, unless they add another tube to the body to house all that stuff, or something like that, but it seems to me they'd have to retool the body layout quite a bit if they want to integrate their ram and LPR.

Incidentally, seems like an E-Blazer wouldn't be too difficult. The three way in a blazer is housed in the grip frame right? So you'd just have to find a solenoid valve small enough to fit in the frame along with a board and switch.

It is routing the air from that solenoid that I see presenting the problem... but maybe I am recalling something incorrectly now.

As far as the more integrated WGP set up, I was thinking of a part to take the place of the frontblock on any given 'cocker body (except, sadly, a Nexus body). Something that utilizes the threads for the banjo bolt and applies the force where needed, to the pump arm.

Anyhoo....my concept wouldn't involve building the Ram and LPR into the marker body, just consolidating the front block into a more compact unit. This would minimise the hosing on the front, make for cleaner design but still maintaing the cocker signature of front mounted pnuematics.

Seen the trilogy anyone...

Warmer... but the Trilogy uses hoses still. I'd like to see a front block that tucks everything in nice and tight and uses a manifold to route gas to and from the solenoid.

Indeed, but don't you find it ironic that the cheapest cocker in the series has the most streamlined look and feel, I really like the ASA/3 way intergration bit too.

WGP keeps us neck deep in irony.
