What makes the Autococker such a Great Gun?

[liigod]

yea upsidedown stuff is great, ive dont that... i walk out with my gun upside down. I dont call out and i dont raise my hand. I just walk slowly out, walk up next to some anoying dude and THWACK! right in the thigh.

[PBpunk]

thats not real sportsman like.













ha just kiddin you gotta take those annoying ones like that every now and then just so they know their role (of couse thats not really playing paintball)

[DC Nelson]

Tinkering factor...

I love to mess with the thing CONSTANTLY (too much sometimes, so i have to make it work to go play...hehe).

Oh, and so my brother can shoot me with it upside down........

Plus it is giving me an excuse to get a mag... trading parts from the cocker for mag parts.
Almost have a complete mag built from trades, now. :)

the theory seems to still hold true, MAG owners will eventually own a COCKER and COCKER owners will eventually own a MAG.

Experienced players will have both, and will have equal appeal to both.

IMHO I dont believe there should even be a Mag vs Cocker debate. Both saide have aired their rubttles for years. I think the debate is about ELECTRO vs MECHANICAL.

At first, I wanted a mechanical gun, something simple, but ever since I went Hyper, theres no way for me to leave the darkside of paintball.

One con I dont like about electro is how it completely eliminates the uniqueness fo each different guns trigger pull, since now everyone pretty much has the same mouseclick pull.

Oh well... as long as Im happy...

Yup, I tryed to resist the 'cockers temptation. Thought my E-mag was adequate. But... my Gen-X 3 is on the way!

Mags and Cockers rule!

Lets see.....Why did I get my cocker.

1. Trigger pull....Very unique....I love the fact I can hold 6bps for a whole minute without a problem.

2. Gas efficency, right now Im getting around 2k per 68/45....Not bad.

3. Ball breakage...I went a whole year without a ball chop, and that was no less than 5 cases in it....Maybe 7 cases.

the trigger...

the moving parts, the complications, it just begs me to take it apart and completely change it on a daily basis.
that and i can get a sickening rapid fire groove because i time my shots on the back block.

then again, the mag works all of the time whereas the cocker (through no fault but my own) is constantly being tinkered with... [evil grin]

If you haven't tried the Worr Hinge trigger on a cocker, I suggest you do. It is light, amazing and fast, not to mention that you can set the trigger pull much shorter that a slide trigger. With the design it is also much harder to short stroke the trigger as well.

Some that have reviewed the frame have said that it is the best mechanical trigger system available.

One thing I like about a cocker is that fact that it can be customized to the users liking/taste, no two cockers can be alike.

Cockers are also very reliable, PROVIDING YOU DON'T MESS WITH IT if you don't know what you are doing leave it be. Basically if it works don't mess with it.

Just my 2 cents....

Two words: flat trajectory. I love my RT to death, but I also love cockers. They're just so da$# neat! They have parts that move and make a neat sound! Gizmo heaven.

One word Elves... Flatter trajectory is physycally and mathmatically impossible given the same velocity and no ball spin.

[bushjumper]

I think it is because there is so much stuff to (watch it! - cphilip)around with on 'cockers. Every single part can be customized. That and the little moving block on the back is mesmerizing.

In fact, sometimes I get a little jealous when I'm sitting there ready to go before a game and I have to wait for the cocker guys to fix their guns and all I had to do was turn on my tank. I feel left out.

[Panzerr]

Cocker DO have a flatter trajectory. Go shoot one. Unless you're blind, you'll see a difference between their trajectory and a mag's. It's flatter.

[CRySyS]

I've owned both as well, and I shoot all kinds of guns almost on a daily basis because I work in a PB shop. And if your seeing a so called "flatter trajectory" from your cocker its either shooting faster than the mag or its time to lay off the drugs. Sorry but physics don't lie and the only thing determining the trajectory of the ball is the angle and velocity it was fired at. It doesn't matter what kind of system accelerated it to that velocity at that angle, it will always have the exact same trajectory. Physics just don't lie, until you get into all that wierd quantum probability stuff but trust me, stuff like that isn't effecting your gun in any appreciably way. This does not take into account the effects of spin which is slow and random unless you have something that creates it in one direction and at higher rotations like, say, a Tippmann Flatline or Z-body Mag. This argument has been proven countless times before and untill you can show some proof of your own your just living in a pot smoke induced haze. Sorry.

Cockers DO NOT have a flatter trajectory. It's impossible. If they do, then every physics book in the world must now be changed. Some how, Budd has managed to defy the laws of everyday proven physics. Thanks to him, they will now release a new book, called "Budd's Guide to Physics, The Autococker approach" This book will of course be right next to his other book, "How to Steal Ideas from people with a last Name that Starts with 'P'" -laughing-


Read a book or even pass a course on Physics, and you will see the Autococker doesnt have a flatter trajectory.
