    i aint no noob lets put it this way. my first Semi was a VM68 when they were still in production.
    I didn't say you were. I said it's a great entry level gun. If a Pro buys a Spyder he's still buying an entry level. It doesn't affect his skill level, he's just buying a gun that is under his skill level. It's a gun that's made for beginners.

      Hey Hoppy

      The Trilogy aint bad, I actually thought about picking on up just for kicks. I no longer have a semi cocker, so it was tempting. There is not a widespread aftermarket for them (or not to the extent of most cockers, especially back when you frequented AO), but you can find everything you really need.

        Not bad, but..

        try to find a used Prostock or Karni/Black Magic frontblock. Direct bolt on, but uses standard cocker X-ways instead of that retarded, built in, leaky POS.

            They are not bad and they are definately cheaper than a fancy cocker. But really, the only difference in performance is a couple of balls a second. You can even get Triogies with the select fire grips now.
            They were made the way they are so that entry level players don't adjust (tweak) themselves out of a days play.

                  Does anyone know how to solve this problem. I have a Trilogy, and it is leaking out the front of the 3 way. I have replaced the orings, and it still leaking. Any suggestions??

                    Throw some vasoline in there. Seriously, petroleum jelly, on the sides od the housing and on the o-rings. That worked on my leaky three-way (not on a trilogy though). Vasoline used to be a factory approved lube, but IDK if it still is... Anywho, it works like a charm

                      trilogys are deffinently an underestimated gun. For like 50-100 used you just cant beat what you get. 4 of my playing buds have one and they love em. They shoot nice and are great for the $. They have the older model ones (blue or green) bodies but im sure theyre all still the same. I picked up a new psycho ballistics lightning superbolt cocker for $50 on black friday and couldnt be happier with the performance of it. Still blows me away on how nice it shoots.

                        Tried that, and it still leaks. Any other suggestions??
