What do mag owners think of cockers? just curious..

[einhander619]

Hmmm, contrary to what you say think from my various quotes and sigs, I think cockers are not bad guns when they are well taken care of. They are, however, outdated and obsolete when compared to something like an XMAG or an IR3. Or my RT, for that matter. All I know is that I am fairly sure my RT can outperform any mechanical cocker out there. The electros, I have no idea, but putting electropnumatics on a cocker seems like throwing gas on the fire that is complexity. I wouldn't mind having one to tinker with, providing I didn't have to pay for it!

well i personall just recieved mine, i had it custon built, milled, and annoed. o couldnt be happier. to be honest with you i do in fact feel it shoots farther straighter then my masg. i will neer get ride of my mag, won mayny a gsmrs with it. but my cocker is under my pillow now. my 3 cents peace

cockers are good in the right hands. they are realy comfy feeling imo as well. customizable and can be vary unique, which is why like them and i am trying to get one. i dont understand why cockers are rivals with mags, i guess its kinda like, kids who like death metal, and kids who like black metal, i love both, but so many ppl hate deathmetal for the singers voice being deep and growly while others hate bmetal for being high pitched screams, but when you realy listen to them both, you realize there isn't much differance other than black metal is alot more complex in musical structure, kinda like a cocker. if you think about it, it makes seince.

I think they're fine markers. I've personally never looked 'down' on cockers and have shot a few.

If I had the extra money lying around, I'd buy one too - just to tinker with it. After an E-Mag Extreme and a Timmy that is.

Other than that I'm perfectly happy with my Rt-Pro and have no plans on buying any other markers soon.

Sounds like you have a marker there that fits your preference. Enjoy it.

i thaught i hated cockers for a long time. Friends called me 'the mag bigot'. Every time i picked one up i shortstroked, and never gave myself a chance. One day a friend gave me his to see " HOw many damn times i would shortstroke in a row" ( the record is 4 for me -- a QUADRUPLE FEED!)
anyway, I quickly got the hang of the trigger and to the amazment of my friends was shooting insanly fast. I amazed myself. I was shooting twice as fast as w/ my mag, and i already outshot everyone w/ my mag. Wow i thaught, and this was an ALL stock 2002.

And the DArk side overwhelmed me...i got a cocker

Still love mags, but cockers are work great for me.

I dont see the argument between mags and cockers either. Its strange how they are about the last 2 high performance mechanical markers out there now that the electros have taken the stage and they are still not thought to be in the same category as eachother because of the differences in design, even though their performance is very close.

For me the only thing that sets the two apart is the trigger. Most of the people who I know that have gotten used to their autocockers just CANT shoot a mag without shortstroking (or very fast either). Its just the other way around with the mag owners and shooting cockers.

i think there really easy/col 2 shoot maybe i would buy one someday maybe not.. but i play on a sup-air with a stock one and did quite good (ruled with my mag tho)

I think I'd like to own one, eventually. I just got Lvl 10 for my warp+mini, and I'm really lovin' it.

I'd like to own an RTP and/or an e-mag (extreem, or otherwise) before I'd pick up a 'cocker..

...unless the price is REALLY outstanding or something

I'm on my second. Just love the trigger, it rips, even stock.

Get a stock 2k2 VF, throw a STO front-block and Supa-Fly bolt on it, and get ready to astonish people with a gun that will shoot just as fast as the much overhyped Orracle and many others in that price range.

Of course, mine's a project gun. When I'm done, the onlything stock on it will be the body, and that will be heavily milled (Can you say Angel feed, & Angel Sight rail)
