I finally figured out why people buy Autocockers

[tremis]

I know of a lot of kids at a field about 30 miles away that love upgrading their cockers. They only play once or twice a month but they have new doodads every week to try out. One kid has a bolt bag. Its like a barrel bag but holds twenty some bolts. It was full when I saw it a year ago.
Anyway, they always ask "what do you think of this beauty?" I answer: "it sure is a gun." that always gets em miffed. They are awlways asking everyone with a decent gun, what they think the next thing is that they should get for their gun. I always told them they should buy some freaking paint for it. If they spent some of that money on playing, they might not suck. But they can impress all of their friends with their guns.
My point being, that the kids with the above mentality seem to be drawn to cockers. Of cource their immaturity prevents them from realizing that there are things that are more important than what their friends think.
Oh, I'm done spewing now.

Edit: simple grammatical error. No need to point out the others.

Sheesh... I want a mag and I wish I could play once a month...

[SoupRman]

well also to add on to why people liek cockers is the feel and the feel of the trigger, sound, etc...

it is a whole lot different and no other marker can compare to the feel of an autococker. either can another gun to a RT. it is smooth and can feel like butter.

also its all just personal preference, if you think you play better with a cocker you shoot a cocker, mag, then you shoot a mag.

i would love to buy a cheap cocker and just tinker with it. then maybe when i get the hang of it, upgrade it to kingdon come.

[MikeCouves]

Do you know what's cool? With mags you don't spend your money on crap, you spend it on paint and field fees and get more experience. What would you rather have?

[RT pRo AuToMaG]

i'd die if i had a cocker. i allready have no money to spent with r/t pro. if i had a cocker, i'd sell my house to buy upgrades

[BTAutoMag]

i just want one to tinker with...

[AdrenalineMag]

people that make theyre guns pretty with ano'ing and fades & stuff are just making up for ugly partners. god i love my mag, its so fugly, heheheh

Actualy many aftermarket parts actualy do help out the pull, with the exception of about 2, 3 ways most either shorten or smoothen out the pull, any trigger frame is an improvment over stock. Rams, there are rams that cycal faster, smoother, and lower pressure. And the pneu reg, they make the pressure adjustable. There are alot of bolts that allow you to go lower pressure and highten velocity. Most any aftermarket valves will work nicer than stock, the best are Red valves by mac dev, and the tornado valve by aka will lower pressure and highten efficiency. But there are stupid things that just look perty like cocking rods, bodys, blocks, stuff like that.

[FeelTheRT]

It's all about personality and individualality. You goto the field and see 20 guys with Cockers(highend of course), and each are different and unique in it's own ways. It would be pritty borring to goto afield where everyone is using the same borring gun. It's just more fresh to see different anodizings and millings and newer aftermarket parts ect.

[veritas]

I think people by cockers just so they can hear that signature clicking sound every time the rear block moves...

[AllAmericanMag]

The REAL reason people buy 'Cockers is because the Back Block is a source of mind control, it makes people buy them.

[BTAutoMag]

my dealer let me play with his today. to give you pespective to how good it is... he bought it for 300, AND THEN he pumped 800 into it. i loved it. i still prefer my mag but it was hypnotic. and fun.

[slayer]

even though I am the most electro guy you will ever meet(I used to be suspicious of revolutions, but my how things have changed)I do like the way a cockers trigger feels. I feel connected with the gun, and at peace with the world. would I ever own one, no I am an incompetent monkey when it comes to fixing/tuning anything. I want an Excalibur to go alongside my E-mag and I just might get one for graduation.

cocker vs. mag

I have both, the fact is that a mag being a blow forward gun simply makes it a med range marker. See aka website.
