    Posted: 08 November 2007 at 6:45am

Well i got my first autococker on tuesday, yes it's stock!

I started to tinker with it a bit, Im still trying to get a list of parts i want to upgrade on it.

I want to make this thing fast, I am still working on how i want to mill this allso, yea any ideas?

12 November

Well i started to mill the back today, not much i can do till i have accsess to a mill, hoping this weekend.

16 November

Well this is what it looked like with the grinder only...looks like poop.

but yea you can do anything with any tool, inless you got time and patience. but it would be nice and faster with the right tools tho.

[NOTE: This picture is befor i used a file and sand paper]

17 November

Well i finish the mill work, behold "stick_boy_2002's" younger brother...

I did all of this with a grinder (1/4th thick), metal file and sand paper.

Would be way easyer if i had access to the mill :(

20 November

Well i Started to polish it, it's starting to look sexy...

for some reason the camera isent captering the shiney :(

Last Post For Pics, Untill i get the parts on...

21 November

Better Polished Picture.

You could have picked a worse Cocker to start with.  Those old WGP hinges were quite smooth.  As far as making it fast, your best bet would be to find an old Raceframe and a Nexus LPR and Ram.  Also, MQ valve it after you get the E-frame and it, and a ZeroB board if you get the E1 frame.

thats essentially what i started with when i did the Venture cocker. it looks nice with blue/silver.


youll also find out that as you upgrade it you will have alot of leftover parts sitting around the house in boxes.

Welcome to the club. RACE frame sounds like what you are looking for.

Not too shabby... get it from Actionvillage?  I just got a cocker from there.  I like the coloring on yours though.  I got the tactical b/c I am into woodsball/scenarioball.
Stay low, run fast, and hope that paintball doesn't hit your...

I was going to get one from action village, but a friend spot one out near my place. I allready cover the millsim part and i neaded a turny gun.

Some of my friends are in the woodsball, but when there busy there friends play speedball only, so i needed a faster gun so i can play them lol.

Im still working on getting a good pump tho, so i can cover all games lol.

I would say the MQ Valve is not necessary... but once set up they are pretty sweet

*.44, or EVO, or MP4 ram
*Oracle Tickler or Palmers Stab.
* any e-frame (race and e2 are the best)
*orange bolt
*mad-man rocket valve (or any other low pressure valve)

MQ isn't necessary, but you can up your cps really quickly with one, and it's a little more efficient since you have a lighter mass to push back so you can run the lpr a lot lower.

As for the reg... seriously man, AKALMP is where it's at when you aren't running CO2! As for the LP valves, AKA and Shocktech RAT 3:16 are my two favorites.

Are you ever going to get rid of that 80lbs 'Trix and get that Race Frame Merlin?

Buying it off of Picasso a week from tomorrow. It'll still weigh 80lbs though until I get a 45/45 for it. It's the armageddon and Auto-spirit that do it, never the marker.

Yeah, I always wondered why they continued using sight-rail extrusions on markers that they designed for speedball.

Nah, they've always had a sight rail, they just were flat rather than milled down in places. Even if you look at my first-gen black magic IAO Body, it still has bits of the sight-rail next to the feed neck.
