Very cool. I really dont like the fact that you cant get aftermarket 3 way's though. This means they better make the stock one very good. But what happens if you want to get an E-blade and you need the electric three way. -------------

Quality has already been in a nose dive from new cockers anyway. Its no suprise. Itll have the durability of a brass eagle. You cant make a gun as complex as a cocker and sell it for $179 without sacrificing massively on quality. -------------

Seems interesting. For only $180 I think I could justify buying one, just to see how they are, and use as a better back up tah my SL. ------------- "Yes there are two path you can go back, but in the long run, there's still time to change the road you're on"

MAN,you guys arent saying much about tippmann since you can darn near buy a 98c for $180.
Cocker is just tring to reach a wider group of people and make it more affordable for those that would like one.I agree thier giving up somthing to make a cocker that cheap and thats scary.  COCKER GODS ARE NOT HAPPY

Meh... There is a flood of old-style Autocockers anyway. Shouldn't be a problem to find them. This new design could be good. They may save quite a bit on machining without the front block, a bit simpler milling, etc. Since when did WGP partner up with BE? ------------- Don't believe everything you think I can resist anything but temptation |

while you could? or when u did, ur saying u would have bought this? cuz you can still find the 00 01 02 03 03.5 and 04 but to me i think the oldermodels are a bit stronger, and more acurate in my case.... my 02 is a bit heavier but is more accurate then a modded orracle my friend has.....with the stock barrel. |
