Does the orracle 3way let you make big fixes to the timing or just fine tunes? Thinkin about gettin a 'cocker and I'm just curious.

The actual adjustment of a 4way is the timing rod, not the 4way it's self. All the better 4way does for you is have a shorter smoother throw.

But the Orracle 3wat has an adjustment knob on the end of it. It says under the product description that you can make changes to the timing with it. Thus my question, does anyone know if it can make a big difference in timing or just a small one?

basically it allows you to time your gun easier, because you can do it from the front of the 3way instead of the back. it also has a short smoothe throw, so that's a plus. and unlike the bomb 3way (which i had, and didnt like at all), it doesn't really require a minimum pressure to seal it. it's the best threeway out i would say..

Right, just to confirm. You dont need to touch the actuating rod (timing rod) You just turn the knob at the end of the 3way. It makes timing much easier.

yeah, if i had the orracle 3way on my gun, i wouldn't have traded it for a mag this week :) anyway, on the good side, i'm now a true member of AO. traded my cocker for this mag, intelliframe, 3 barrels, and misc parts:

The front (low pressure) regulator controls the cocking pressure of the gun. The Orracle 3-way is the shortest 3-way on the market today.

It doesnt really help with the timing very much. the knob is just there to adjust the length of the trigger pull. Its a decent 3 way, kinda expesnive tho. Look at the WGP ct 3 way, just as short but cheaper. Also look into a bomb 3 way, very nice.

The orracle and CT 3-way i'm pretty sure are the same thing just one has an allen screw and one has the cool knob.

And you guys I think are a little mixed up. You can't fully adjust the timing with the little adjuster. You have to use the actuator rod and coupling thing to get the 3-way into the vicinity of working.

The little knob is for fine tuning. For example if you timed your gun perfectly but it leaks at rest, turn the little knob to seal the orings over the holes.
