Well even if you have written instructions, some people still can't time it.

Some points:

Stock LPR, Twisted Kapp I beleive Ram (Ie an STO RAM with milling) Bob Long Torpedoe, Eclipse Frame, Fireball Mountain Body. Some sort of aftermarket bolt.

I would not give over 400 for the marker, without knowing anymore about it.

Indeed, what everybody else said about the parts is correct. I believe the bolt is either a Black Magic stock bolt, or the Shocktech Supafly, both have that same design. Look inside the gun and see if its delrin or metal, and if its delrin its Supafly, if not then its most likely the Magic bolt. With cockers I prefer Delrin bolts, it just makes the marker a bit more reliable. Find out the internals like everyone else said, and possibly the operating pressure. Always good things with cockers. At that point id say like 400 bucks.

id buy it for about 400 thats a nice looking cocker and a new front reg bolt and maybe 3 way and your more then set (unless you wanna eblade it and maybe a new barrel)

The bolt isn't a Supafly. Shocktech's use an evo pullpin. It does appears to be a black magic (venturi) bolt.

Has the seller given you a price?

id buy it for about 450 max nd then get a new barrel nd a eblade if u have the money

Ask around on www.air-powered.com those guys know everything about cockers!

Thanks for the input, especially those links JEDI. Here is a run down on the cocker:

FireBall Mountain body + Front Block + ASA + "Q" Block
Kapp Phat RAM
Palmer MicroRock Pneumatic Reg
WGP Adjustable 3-way
Dye Microgauge
Armageddon 12" Barrell
Bob Long Nickel Torpedo Regulator (LPR)
Eclipse Double Trigger Hinge Frame
AJAX Synthetic Pearl Gun Grips (1911)
Kapp F/X Beaver Tail
Twisted Parts Bolt
Kapp Chrome Cocking Arm
CP "Lightning Bolt" Drop Forward
Kapp Nickel On/Off Valve
Kapp Hammer Kit
Stock Valve
Kapp Chrome Ball Detent

So the general concensus is that if I get it somewhere in the neighborhood of $450 I should be ok, he is actually asking $600. So we will see. Any other comments, post up! thanks again.

[JEDI]

Where did you get the specs on the micro rock. I'm pretty sure thats not one. Here's a shot of one.

All those other parts seem like a pretty good line up. $600 is way too much though. Like I said, I'd be willing to pay a little over $500 at most. Stock 2003 vert cockers go for $300 and change. So $400 seems a little low. (It does have some nice stuff on there). Try to bring him down to at least low $500s.

[vdo_game_junkie]

Thanks again JEDI, you've been really helpful. The specs i got straight from him, just did a copy and paste. I'll try to bring his price down closer to $500. He also said he'll get the timing fixed and change to the bolt to a Shocktech Supafly and he'll throw in a carrying case as well (I know whoopee big deal!)

I guess I'll be dong some haggling this weekend.

Specs aside that 'cocker has been built from scratch, the body is an aftermarket one and some of the combo of internals are not something you see everyday, well not with some of the other parts. This is one of the problems with 'cockers as what one person decides is a great part another will say something else, The Kapp parts says to me that someone has built this 'cocker on a budget but again you don't always have to spend lots to get a cocker that flys. If you can actually get to fire this 'cocker properly and you like it then buy it and don't fiddle with it.
