Timmy or Cocker?

[SuiciDal Sn Y p ER]

I am right now comparing:

Bob Long Dragon Intimidator
vs.
Eclipse E-Blade Autococker

Both are equal in price and look kick***. Which one is better? Please list reasons why.

Personally I would say the cocker. However, I would go with an ir3...I love the way my angel feels, and angels in general. However, between the two I think that the cocker is just better made...I dont like the feel of timmys, they just feel cheap to me. You really should check out some angels though.

90% of tournament players use timmys.

I'd say more like 30%. I see more of them around than anything else though. Despite the fact that I think they are not great guns. People like them because it's easy to cheat with them due to the debounce setting of the WAS board. I would take a Matrix, or the E-blade over a timmy.

lol isn't that a good thing for timmy users than?

[Benfica4ever]

I would probably go with the e-blade

Ok, well everyone knows what I am gonna say...

Timmy

But dont get a dragon, dragons have way to much milling. If you get shot in the gun, it will take you a very long time to clean the paint off. Get a TX storm, or a 2k2 and just buy a WAS board.

E-Blade cocker. Try both and see which one feels best to you.

I STRONGLY recomend a timmy, i have lots of trouble w/ my cocker, but i love my timmy very much... i used to spend more time working on my cocker than playing.. and timmys fell great, have a lot of upgradeable parts and so on. very accurate fast and if u have a was, u basicly have unlimited rof.. i mean cockers aren't SOOOOO bad, i just dont like them to much, also a timmy is more consistant...

well if u get a timmy dont not get a dragon, i mean they look cool, but they r more of a show gun (in my opinion).
i would say get a storm if u have the $$, those things RIP and they r one of the best guns ive ever shot... but if u dont have the $$ get a 2k2 id say... well i hope u take my opinion into consideration. i really think timmies r great guns...alos i took my time to write ALL this about timmys, so that how much i like em...

I would take the timmy Anyday over a cocker, for what ever reason it just feals to me that all cockers are the same. And from a 300$ cocker to an 1300$ cocker.. they work the same! i know they can run smoother and whatnot but who cares is a paintball gun.

i vote: timmy!

I have had my cocker for almost a year and a half now and I have had no problems with it. Why does everyone think that cockers are so hard to maintain? I oil it every once in a while and it works great for me, plus I have only had to have it re-timed once, which was when I got a hinge frame. Also, I chop a paintball about once in a case, so that is not a problem for me, like some people say.

also a timmy is more consistant

This is not true. If it is that is only because you have a more consistant regulator or tank on your timmy. My cocker with an AKA Sidewinder is +/- 2, with field paint.

timmy - 4
cocker - 5

...come on i need to make a descision on which gun to buy and right now it is basically equal.

[SlipknotX556]

Trust me, get a timmy. Just trust the slippy one on this.


But if you need a better reason, I can always type on of my 20 minute reading posts, all about why to buy a timmy :).

[oneshot]

depends how much you know about cockers? the can be complicated,

timmys are great I love mine, plus they have very little upkeep , just air up and your ready to go

electro cockers are cool too though, dragon timmys look crappy, get a lasoya , shocktech or a ironman timmy if you get one.

[thecavemankevin]

how about this...the only bad thing about a timmy is it is slightly taller than a cocker (typically speaking)

cockers, timing issues (even though when properly timed it can stay that way for a year or so) they issues are still there

Plust they have numerous external moving parts which i personally dont care for. And something about that three way with the hoses sticking out in the air just worries me.

Bottom line, its your choice but i deffinatly say go with a timmy. They are fast becoming one of the best markers on the market.
