The only difference with the milling is that there isn't a Dye logo on there. Oh yeah and its 300 bucks less than a UL.

Why would someone want to knock-off the crappiest performing Autococker on the market?

There's worse, maybe not for the price, but there are.

Looks like they're using their own trigger frame as well, just a cheap copy of the DYE Hinge.

the only reason i could see someone buying one of those is if they were dieing to get their hands on a Dye cocker body, since i am almost posotive Dye doesn't sell the bodies separately. for the price you relaly can't go wrong i mean the base model of that which is a Dye regular cocker(whatever its called) is less than a stock WGP 03 cocker i think. you will probably end up replacing all the internals on the 03 too so you might as well buy this.

And people can't understand why legal actions are involved in paintball have become common.

Maybe the thing is $300 cheaper becuase they don't have that pesky design/engineering paycheck to pay every week like Dye does.

Here's a thought for the paintball design world, if you see something that somebody else made that you like, go up to them and say "hey man, that thing came out pretty cool, nice work." Then you go back to your shop and try to design something even cooler....it's called innovation.

An Orracle, Freeflow or anything from Chipley Custom/Works is FAR superior to a Dye in quality.
