Hey i have a tippmann and i hate it, it does not shoot fast enough and i dotn like its looks, but i play woods ball. My question is why dont people use cockers for woodsball, only in speed ball? Because i think i am going to sell my tippmann and buy a cocker but i dotn wanna loook stupid playing in the woods and have a speedball gun, or does it even matter???

Yeah, because mechanical cockers are just sooooo much faster than tippys. I guess annodizing and chrome increases your ROF.

ok, well let me fix that, i was looking at the BKO that shoots faster, i think i a going to sell my tippy and ket one of those they r like 280 ebay. Also i see that the Bko shoots 18-22 bps, so mt rico or reloader wont keep up with that, will a warp feed make it keep up with the 1-22 bps??

Your tippy only sucks at woodsball because your using it wrong.  That was too foward I know but I can't count how many times I've purposely shot people in their over priced fully auto paint wasters and watched their battery operated hoppers crack open.  I use a 98 custom with nothing but a new barrel that cost less than $200 dollars.  I'm good because I know that I'll get wasted going toe-to-toe with an expensive gun so instead I play it cool and wait until I know I have the upper hand.  woodsball is about techneique not tech. (wow I just thought of that, god I'm smart, and modest). besides save money and force yourself to get better rather than blaming it on your gun.

I think Tippmann's are the best woods ball guns. Like ieatpaint said "woodsball is about techneique not tech."  He's right, you have to use your advantages in woodsball.

warp won't make the hopper faster.

^ Couldn't say it better myself.

A Mech cocker will shoot as Fast or slower then your current tippy. If your seriously thinking about Selling your tippmann and buying a new Gun, the Best Gun I can think of better then a Tippmann in woods would be... ... ...  a BKO but with that you'll need low pressure HPA, and most likely a Electric Hopper, so there goes around 250$-350$.

Just Keep your Tippmann, and if your pissed off its slow throw in a E-bolt/E-grip and you'll see your Tippmann aint so Bad.

BKOs can only shoot like 15.  They say 18, but thats a lie.

people usually dont use cockers and angels for woodsball because of their structure and durablity. they would likely get messed up in some conditions, but CAN and will work just as well in most situations.

ahahahahahahhahaa that is so funny.  Do you know how well made and duriable angels are, they can survive in the woods fine, and so can any gun just dont throw it into mud and it will work

A mech cocker is easier to shot faster on then a tippy plus u can e-blade it and it will be faster than the tippy, now i play speed alot and make a trip outdoors once and a while, it does help to be able to shot fast, i cant think of one situation where it WOULDN'T help to have a faster gun

Just for a record, I play woodsball with a stock Spyder Victor. It does fine.

I can shoot my Mech cocker faster than i could my Tippmann. The trigger pull is so much smoother, and people think the trigger pull on cockers is really long but it actually fires withing the first 1/4 of the pull. So I think you should get a cocker, a good cocker for woodsball would be a WGP VFT.

My A5 is my first choice for woodsball. I also have two cockers, a timmy, and an Angel. But as it was said, woodsball is about technique, not bps.

Your gun is only as good as you are.

warps are stupid


i think that a mech cocker can out shoot a tippy, and with the right barrel or barrel kit it can be even more accurate.

In speedball, its 93% Skill and 7% gun. In Woods ball, its 98% skill and 2% gun, and Tippmann is a great woodsball gun because:

1- You can get it dirty without destroying it
2- It has the Flatline
3-They have all of the ROF that you need with a double trigger.

-Tippmann 98C
-Dead-on Double Trigger
-20oz and 14oz CO2
-14" Teardrop Barrel
