Well, I've decided to build a cocker

[Brak]

After talking to my friend (a cocker user), and giving it a long amount of thoght (5 minutes), i've decided to build a cocker. i already know what body im buying (CCM J2 body), and i am going to stick to stock WGP internals, but i need advice on most of the other things.
i want this to perform well, but i also need it to be cheap, as in im a teenager without a job (cant get one yet). so please help me get the most of my money out of this. im going to give a list of the stuff i already have line up, and please suggest anything, or give me a list on whats missing

body
-CCM J2 body kit
internals
-3 choices: stock WGP, free flow, or CCM
pneus
-mini rock
-bomb
-clippard ram? (not sure)
-might get CCM front end set
trigger frame
-i want the smoothest single trigger possible
-or the most walk-able hinge
(keep in mind i have big hands, i know some are smaller)
reg
-thinking of black magic (becuase it looks cool), but really want something cheaper but good too

i still need a front block, ASA, and come misc stuff

i know some stuff about cockers, but let me know if im missing anything. and if you dont know what CCM is, go to chipleymachines.com, ther make NICE cockers

AKA tornado valve has the best reputation, freeflow is good though.
Also, go with sidewinder or palmer stab for main reg.
Kapp frame is most adjustable. (I like mine), eclipse blade is another one with good rep.

You will need some small items like valve capture screws, hammer, hammer pull, banjo bolt, asa bolt, etc.(found some of the parts on ebay for good price) I had heck of time finding the bolt that held the vertical asa, when I built mine. (12point 1/4" bolt) hmm

mine is built like this

wow, thats really nice. how much did you spend on it, and could you give me a list of those parts?

[askman]

most of the parts I either had or got it off ebay.
well, the KAP body kit with back block and asa costed me $135 shipped off ebay, shocktech front block was $25. bomb 3way $25, palmer ram(best ram there is)$35, akalmp bolt, tornado valve and sidewinder. (swapped off another marker, about 200 if I bought separately)
kapp grip frame for $95, black magic cocking rod, ANS front reg(had it around). beavertail $10, valve capture screw+velocity adjustment screw $10. drop forward(I had around, but probably $40)

total of about $550 total invested(including value of part I had). about a price of black magic, but much better marker. It is super fast

look around ebay, and you can find parts for reasonable price. I am starting to put together a minicocker. (got a cheap one that was in bad shape, so I am going to refinish the body and rebuild) probably have powdercoated.
