Building Autococker

[V-Viper]

Im probally going to start building a 100% custom cocker, and I was wondering a few things. If someone could give me a link to a place that sales some nice.. GREAT cocker bodies, and also where would I buy the internals. Like the velocity spring. I know I have to buy the reg, triger frame , front penitcs, bolt, and vaule. If there is anything I am missing plz tell me. Any tips would be great as well. Thank you very much.

Hey I'm glad you like my cocker :) (the one in the pic you attached is mine!) Although it now has a Race electro frame on it.

You can get those bodies from http://www.impactpaintball.com/main.html but bear in mind they are no longer producing Spearhead bodies so guns like these will be rare and not available if you don't snap it up soon!

I'd consider buying a full Spearhead rather than by parts, which would make it much more expensive. It's only worth buying by parts if there are very specific components you want.

Manike, thats one of the coolest cockers I've ever seen. You need a Freak though, but thats just my opinion.

I've got one now :) . That pic was taken a while ago. I have a freak with SS back (new smooth style) and a 14" tip in gloss black. It's gorgeous and shoots well also!

CP kit takes a big #2 on the freak. (the name of the freak says it all)

The Spearhead body is an anno'd Spanky body, so you can still get the bodies through Spanky (Just not in that cool colour).

KAPP, Belsales and MacDev make internals for the cocker. Belsales are tops, but the KAPP and Sonic(MacDev) parts are very nice.

Mine will work out like this:

Stock V/F body (Making stealth cocker)
Belsales Rex Hammer Kit
Belsales Valve
STO Ram
WGP Orracle 3-Way
WGP Ticker front reg
WGP Delrin Bolt or Shocktech Supafly
KAPP 15degree ASA
KAPP Twisted Cocking Rod
SS Pump Rod
Stock Back Block
Eclipse Blade Frame
SP Stickies
WDP Spiral Reg
KAPP Milled Front Block
KAPP SS Banjo Bolt
KAPP SS Screw kit
KAPP Ball Detente
Shocktech long Apocalypse Rail
Freak Barrel
SP 68/45 Max-Flo

All I can say is the dye swing trigger is the best I have ever tried.

I can shoot strings on a dye swing frame cocker almost as fast as I can shoot strings on my automag Rt at moderate input.

I would also like to suggest palmers everything. Thats the only way you are gonna get it to be happily reliable.

Don owns 3 cockers. All his 3 ways leak at one point or the other. He just installed a bomb on his kapp cocker I fired it yesterday and it started leaking already.

My roomate has a palmerized cocker the thing has been sitting in his garage for years 50 feet away from the ocean almost all of the bolts are rusted and when I got him to get back into paintball it worked perfectly.

The quickswitch 3way , and rock LPR are expensive but it is well worth it.

Not quite true actually. The Spearhead body is a Spanky with more milling and jewel (comes with three jewels).

Spearheads only come in 4 stock colour options. Blue, red, black and chrome.

It looks quite different close up with the extra milling although the basic principle and look is the same as the Spanky Cobra.

The CP kit is nickeled and engraved to match and is actually a very good set of barrels. Seems to shoot on par to the Freak but doesn't look as good... and only has 3 bores.

Didn't notice the extra milling.

CP is now selling 5 bore sizes (They always claimed 5, but only now are shipping the other 2). You can order the individual backs from them. Personally I prefer the Freak setup, with inserts being seperate from the backs.

Im suprised noone said www.airamerica.com . they have nice bodies... last time I checked. 120 or so

[Laxpunk2006]

I'd say your first step should be takin a look at www.air-powered.com it's a great site for cocker owners. Which body really depends on how much money you want to spend. as of now this is what I would get if I were building from scratch

AKALMP Merlin Body P-blocked
AKA Tornada Valve
AKA Straight Pump Arm
DEZigns Etralyte Bolt w/ evo style pin
KAPP Evo Style Pin
KAPP Back Block
FreeFlow Tungsten Hammer
Madman Springs
Sonic Ball Detent
KAPP Milled Front Block
Belsales Evoloution Ram
Belsales Hollowpoint 4-way
Mac Dev Sonic LPR
Dye front block screw(on 2k's you don't really need LPC's)
KAPP Milled ASA
KAPP Timing Rod
Mac Dev Gladiator In-line Reg
KAPP f/x beavertail
KAPP Screw Kit
LPC Hoses/top hates
Then the trigger frame would be one of these three:
Racegun
Dye Hinge
KAPP Slider w/ roller sear + AKA trigger plate, KAPP springs
Also any barrel/ cradle you are comfortorable with
I hope that gives you an idea of what kinda parts are good. www.compulsivepaintball.com carries almost everything there

Yea manlike your cocker rockz,
how much did it cost you off the bat, and how much have you put into it so far? i see angel air and all. I just hope that spearhead is for sale for a while longer, I getting a job soon, so i MAY be able to get a loan from my parents and pay em off.

My STO and air, halo, dye swing triggerm not to metion cheap $20 BE mask where stolen, and right b4 the summer. I think it can be said i wanna get back "in da game" as fast as possable. Not joking or anything im going to buy a safe to put my gear in,

lol im planing to go all out on this 1, angel air and all. By the way are the HALO Bs out yet? Hehe i feel like 3 years ago when i was a rookie looking for a "pro" gun again, maybe its for the better.

o and one more question manlike http://www.impactpaintball.com/spe_2.html did yours come like this 1 and you just put on the black trigger frame and grips? Not to be pickie but the way there selling it now is kinda ugly to me.
