    hoppys NEW marker, again

    So i just ordered a NEW marker. like actualy new, not another splatmaster

    some how i have the feeling il get torn apart for this, but its.... a COCKER!

    before anyone jumps on me i have a feeling the price is too good to be true.

    iv been outta the game for a little. but still have all my gear. hoping to get back into the game. and dont mind tinkering to get the cocker working. but is there any reason this one was that cheap? was a problematic year for cockers? just a poorly selling model?

    No, trilogys are actually easier to take care of than a 'regular' cocker.

    It's so cheap because it's about the simplest/cheapest cocker they could make. I think when they first came out they were only going for about 150.00.

          the only real upgrade besides barells and regs are eclipse, or worrframes. definately get a new bolt, aluminum bolts are terrible. unless it's a mag that is.

                mags have always, and will always use stainless steel bolts. even the delrin super bolt was stainless steel. the only exception are the crap aftermarket bolts.

                  ...Back on topic...

                  Trilly's are nice guns and are WAY under appreciated. They even make a pump kit for them! (www.pmpind.com)
                  Autocockers are the greatest markers ever made.

                      Actually, the only thing you can't upgrade on a Trilogy Cocker is the 3-way because it is integrated. Everything else can be upped. Palmers even makes a Micro-Rock especially for the Trilly, along with their LT valve. If you want to fine tune your trigger pull however you're going to need a TechT "Shaft Kit" (www.techtpaintball.com). I own a Trilly Comp and love it.

                          Great entry level gun. The performance of a cocker in a cheap, easy to use package. Good for a noob to learn on.

                            I was thinking about getting a cocker back in the day, but I was always affraid that the bolt would hit my goggles.

                              no offense. but even if you take the amount of years i played for. and subtract the number of years iv been away from the sport (3+ now) im still a long ways up on most people.
                              i aint no noob lets put it this way. my first Semi was a VM68 when they were still in production.

                              thanks for the info guys. i seriously just went to AV on a whim, saw and it said "what the heck, i always wanted a cocker." had the 100$ and went for it. im hoping to take my collection of assorted gear outta mothballs and go back to my days of rocking the field

                              also, i remember the superbolt and those crazy shenanigans involved with it.

                              who ever posted the link to the pump kit. you have just unleased an uncontrolable can of worms. now im gunna want a pump kit. when i get the pump kit, im gunna want another phantom

                              jimmy james! i havnt been playing for a while but now that im working im thinking of playing the occasional weekend up here at P&L paintball in Bridgewater. figure between the Mag, PGP, Splatmaster and soon to be Cocker il be set for most situations. you still playing these days?
