hey i knnow your just trying to help him but look how many posts he has  give him a break

Only do the Autococker if you know what you're getting into.  They're temperamental, and require that you have a fairly good understanding of how they work, especially if you start swapping out parts.  If that's your thing and you like to upgrade, get the Autococker because you can swap out just about everything on the gun from about 19 different companies.

If you want to always be able to pick up your marker and play even if you haven't cleaned it in 6 weeks, get the A-5.  You won't get that kind of reliability from an Autococker if you start abusing it, which has a simple solution... don't abuse your gun, but regardless, the A-5 fires a shot every time you pull the trigger, and you don't have the whole "short stroke" problem.

I beg to differ.

I own an A-5 and a cocker, and they are both excellent guns, each with their strengths and weaknesses.

Until you start adding E-Blades, they are quite comparable in overall quality.
