I feel like being an idiot and spending my money

i owned a cocker before so i know what to do and what not to do. i learned my lesson when it got off timed.

just liquidate some of your stuff and get an emag or viking. If you have a classic valved mag then get an rt pro, but I don't see the point of getting another gun for 400 dollars if you already have one in that price range.

impulse is pretty good

my bro couldn't even take apart an A5 but he can take apart and lube his impy. so its gotta be pretty much idiot proof. also that thing is durrable as hell i have been runing full speed slammed the gun into the bunker then dropped it about a foot, the fee neck poped out and i was like holy fricken mcshiz i must have broke sumtin. but then i just picked up the feed neck screwed it back in and was fine for the rest of the game. the thing has taken alot of abuse in its year of use and is still awsome with very little upgrades(all it has is new bolt feed neck lpr and barrel). also they are relatively inexpensive and if you don't like all that SP stuff then i would highly reccomend getting one.

barfly, i already have an xmag. i'm just looking for a gun that i don't have to worry about 24/7 (theft, scratches, etc)

i'm not prepared to get my xmag scratched yet *shiver*

Then I would look at a decent cocker. Since you want something you don't have to worry about walking off look to get a "sleeper" style cocker. You make it great on the inside (maybe have something other than brass Pneumatics) but look a little plain on the outside.

The problem is even the stock cockers are starting to look pretty exciting. They have milling and according to the pic posted about have nickel pnuematics. You might want to look into getting a used 2k or 2k1 stock cocker that still has the black body. That way you could really go for the sleeper look (This, by the way, describes one of the guns I own). On the inside my gun shoots 225 psi and I can get 700 shoots from a 47/3K so it is ultra efficent. It does have an aftermarket reg and pnuematics but isn't anything too special compared to what is being sold today.

Cocker are idiot proof as well. That is as long as you explain to the user that you don't touch anything unless you know what you are doing. I can tech a cocker no problem. Most everyone around here talks me into teching their guns for free because they know I can do a good job and generally don't charge anything because I enjoy doing it. My cocker has been rebuilt (putting on new parts) three times and it has only been timed three times. Other than that I probably put 5-8 cases through it a year (it is a 2k bought new so it is three years old). I never have any trouble out of it and it always performs well. The only reason I don't shoot it more is because I like to play different styles everytime I go out (Pump, electro, mech) But it has been one of my best performers.

Hope this helps you make up your mind...Good Luck.

I shot an Omen the other day and it was pretty awesome for the price. It could easily be used for tournies and it is pretty easy to walk if you don't have really big hands.
