Honestly, I dont know crap about them.

Yes, I know what back blocks are, yes I know that they need timing etc etc etc... but not much else. Im looking at picking up a cheap one online (Used, mech and as cheap as possible). Any suggestions?

Also, dont say never use WD-40. I know that already....

Cheap over eBay? I strongly suggest learning to time it, as it'll probably need it. 'Cockers are exceptionally nice guns. Take care of it and you won't regret getting it.

I mostly want one for the novelty. I already have two great semis, and hopefully a pump soon. I mostly want one for the back block.

I blame myself for spreading the back-block luv.

DeTrevni, the forum backblock pusher.

The scene is a barely lit alley off of a busy street. An innocent young man with a Tippmann is on his way home in the rain. As he passes the alley a voice rasps out. "Hey kid, you lookin' for the good stuff?" The kid stops and stares as a figure in a trench coat materializes out of the darkness, his face shadowed by the brim of his hat. "Whateva you wants kid, I got it." He says as he throws open the coat to reveal his merchandise hanging from the inside of it. "It's all here, mech, electric, slides, pivots, you name it; I got it." The kid instinctively draws back a bit, but yet he is mesmerized by the shininess and backblockiness." In a few minutes, the kid leaves the alley with an additional marker.  DeTrevni has hooked another victim.

Well, sure, you've had a 'cocker longer than I have, but have you actively pushed the coolness that is a backblock?

I wanna halfy, but I don't think I'm gonna ditch my Dark for one (unless some neat deal comes around!). I'll probably just make my own one day.

yeah, but it's a trilly, so it isn't really a 'cocker. Real 'cockers have
adjustable timing rods and replaceable/upgradable 3-ways.

That said, I'm working a deal with a guy on MCB to get an e-2 w/eyes,
solenoid and an already drilled body for $210 shipped!
