I am thinking about changing from a Angel, to a Cocker.
Whats the best Cocker, and why?
I know that the Eclipse seems ok, and people rate the Evo.
I am going to put a eletro trigger on it, at least thats the idea!
Thanks to all the Cocker owners who reply....

I can only say I've been more than happy with my eclipse cocker, although as far as I am aware custom cockers are much of a muchness, although you can put an eblade on any cocker... Planet have even put on onto a right feed cocker.

If you are going to Campaign, go the Race Guns trade stand and talk to those guys. They will let you fire it and once you do you will be hooked. Trust me.

Gary,
No such beast. If you're planning to put an e-blade on your cocker (good plan, btw) your principle concerns should be a late model body (or one bored out for maximum air chamber capacity), ram cycling rates, hammer strike, and valve operating pressures. Any 2K+ body should have the air capacity, the Palmer ram is the fastest and the folks at Eclipse can probably give you the head's up on the parameters they intend to use when producing a complete e-cocker so something in the same neighborhood will probably make the e-blade happy.

I've had an eclipse and a freeflow boxxer and they both rocked, both very reliable and both never broke paint (after I got used to the triggers). But if you're slapping and electro frame on you shouldn't have that problem.
I've briefly shot a black magic which seemed pretty good too, but not as nice as the other two.
Lastly there is the evo which I've never had a chance to shoot (my loss) but has pretty much the same parts as the eclipse.

If you want to try out a freeflow I can bring mine along to campaign mate. I think my old eclipse is gonna be there too and I'm sure I could persuade it's new owner to let you have a trial run.
 
EVO IS BEST!!!.

well, thats my opinion anyway, been usin em for years and no problems.

stay clear of junk ( again my opinion) like shocktech or dye
seen a few shocktechs, all had same problem, basiacly their parts made the gun not work, once we put evo 3way, ram , slegde ect on it was ok, lol.
seen 1 dye, brand new out of box, gasses it up, leaks from everywhere pretty much.

best bet is to try em all.

i am a bid dubious of the elade till i see one. seemd to have sooo many features and is still cheap, i duno, we'll have to see

hmm i had an evo-x very very good marker wish i had not sold it now :(
right i had this coversation with a guy on pbnation.com and he said that "the freeflow was a much better cocker to put a race grip on because it was geared more towards an electro grip frame" ?? so he said ,but i would think u could put one on any cocker and get just as good a performance could'nt you ??:confused:
