    Posted: 21 August 2004 at 11:37am

I play both woodsball and speedball...probably more woods than speed.  I need a gun that will let me excell at both.  i want one that is reliable, accurate, and will be a kick ass gun after some modification.  Can i get some positives and negative on both guns.  I hear so much about autocockers but not much about the b2k4.  The b2k4 is an e-marker am i correct and for an autococker to be upgraded to an e-marker, you have to spend like 400 bucks for the upgrade, so the b2k4 would be cheaper in that stance.

well what cocker?
 An outkast is around the same price of a b2k4, and an outkast totally owns. its an amazing cocker right out of the box. as for upgrades, a delrin bolt and barrel would be the first 2. then after that, new pneus. hollow point 3-way, belsales ram, palmers reg, and eclipse qevs.

that setup right there is a really nice setup.

Not to true to pwn your ubertasticness. but...

Why by a 420 dollar gun when you can by a 220 03 vert cocker, when your going to replace everything?

assuming your getting a b2k4 w/pds that marker is about 200 dollars more than said cocker. and that is the cheapest ive seen it. if you dont want pds your still looking at a 100 dollar price diffrence, i dont know much about cockers but according to bunkerking the said cocker would be prettty good with some upgrades, well there you go 100-200 dollars in upgrades. id go with the cocker is your planning on spending 500+ anyways

Cockers and Bushys are very different markers, so there's a lot of personal preference that would go into this decision.  I'd say try them both before you decide (if possible, it may be hard to find a newer Bushy to try). 

There's nothing wrong with cockers, but I am not a huge fan myself.  Just don't like the feel.  I've never owned one though, just shot a few. 

I can say that I love my Bushy, and it rocks.  It is fast, accurate, and efficient.  I do not have PDS (eyes) on mine, but I don't need them because the Blind Bolt and low operating pressure (45 PSI on the LPR) don't allow me to chop anyway. 

Let me know if you have any questions, and check out the ICD forum at pbnation to get a lot of questions answered and see some pics.

Is the 03 SE Cocker he linked to better then the 04!?


By the way, ive heard lots of good things about Cockers, one being that their stock barrels are extremely accurate. You could spend the money that you were going to use for a barrel on something else; like a drop kit.

that right there is what i may call useless spam.   i would go with the cocker myself, it can be upgraded more, but a stock cocker VS. a stock BK24, the cocker would loose.  if you plan on putting alot of money into your marker, go with the cocker.  first upgrade would be a Derlin Bolt, next a new barrel (preferrably kit, but if ou cant afford it thats fine.  go with lapco bigshot or J&J ceramic).
The desire for polyester is just to powerful.
