Hello!
 
    Im new to this site as well as newers guns. I was
looking to get something new & different (cocker-wise).
Preferaly for somethin un-used
While looking around ebay.. I found this 
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category =47251&item=7128389875

Are they any good? I think  I've seen something similar
at my local paintball shop for like $600 !!!!
This will in a way be a learning experience for me to get
into the newer relm of things... in the paintball world &
learn cockers better..

opinions? Is this worth it? I know it doesnt come with a
reg but thats not a problem because i would have replaced
it with soemthing aftermarket anyway..

thanks!

Speaking from experience. Shoot one first. Go to your proshop and ask to hold and or shoot it. Cockers are great guns when they work right. If you get a cocker that is pretty much stock then you should be alright. Like you stated, it is a learning experience and once you get to know more about the internals, cleaning and timing it will work better for you. If you do buy it, go to your proshop and ask them to show you how to maintain and strip it down.

The key sentence there is WHEN THEY WORK RIGHT.
