a-5 with the response dude u dont even need a response all yu nedd is a double trig abd a flatline and its got twice the range and accuracy than a autococker. i have an a-5 and u buy it as anintermidiate gun but then u can upgrade it to be the best gun out there! ------------- spray n' pay |

| Autococker. You can get good ones cheap on ebay, and from the 10-12 of December, action village is selling 'cocker parts (for that matter, tons of stuff) REALLY cheap. I looked at it, and you can get tons of good upgrades crazy cheap (literally, these are bargain basement prices). Go check it out. That, and Ebay. |

You are a noob. First off flatelines wont double your distance and half the times they dont even pop when you get the increased distance. Accuray is determinded by paint to barrel match but since the autococker doesnt kick like a shotgun from shot to shot you will have better accuracy becuase your hands wont be flying around. A-5s can not be upgraded to be the best gun out there a b2k5 would always be better than an a-5. An autococker is a great gun but I would suggest getting an autococker with an electro frame such as the race or e-blade becuase that way you can shoot much faster then mech guns ------------- http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v467/paintballa01/d58a8ce5 .gif Angel Ir3 Cp barrel kit A4 board Cobra trigger |

Im with the "noob" I would much rather have the A-5 then the cocker. The A-5 is faster, more relaible, alot more durable, and easier to clean and maintain with its no tool maintence design. -------------

| my tippy A-5 is upgraded with e-grip, drop forward, 12in dye ultralite, and double trigger, running nitro. a cocker? ha...why is it that everyone with a cocker thinks there something special. when someone says they have an A-5, the person with the cocker, no matter what kind it is, thinks they have the better gun..numerous times at my hometown airball and xball field have i completly owned the competition with my A-5, cockers obviously arent the better gun. the tippmann upgraded will shoot just as fast, and with a good barrel just as accurate, just because you have a cocker doesnt mean you have to be so **edited***** cocky. oh wait i have an A-5, does that mean i'm a noob as well. cockers arent bad guns, i'll give you that, but there not to the point that cocker owners can just dismiss A-5's as no competition....besides, any gun can beat anyone, its the players skill that counts you cocky bast**** |

nice try buddy. I used to own an a-5 that was 10x your gun. just to inform you... when i owned an a-5 i too tried to claim it was better then cockers... but i was wrong back then. cockers own a-5s |

| excuse me but do you read anything i said, at the end of what i said i stated its the player that beats the gun... your A-5 must of been a great gun...i guarantee if you had any skill with it, you'd be taking down cockers like crazy. my argument isnt with electric cockers, those are i'll admit it better than A-5's, but a non electric cocker, the A-5 will match and can beat... i'm sorry you didnt have the ability to push the A-5 to its best...but when you do, it's a hell of a gun to beat. my A-5 has become an Airball, speedball, and xball gun...not a woods gun as you'd probably suspect. not to brag...but yes i have taken people with cockers out numerous times..and yes i'll do it again and they'll be shocked when i do, especially when they find out it was just a heavy, bulky, slow, tippy A-5 that did it. |

Cockers all the way... there is no comparison... the cocker is goin to outshoot any A5 out there, yes it is all about the player but no player out there could cap a A-5 out at 20 bps, on a Cocker you could. think about it, if you had the perfect barrel bore to paint size on each gun, you're going to get much better accuraccy on the Autococker, i mean c'mon, think about it people, they're seen in tournaments by pros and if people thought A-5s were just as good, dont you think you'd be seeing those in tourneys too? ------------- 2004 ICD BKO Dye Sticky 3s CP Regulator Vapor Valve Custom Cut Bolt Removed Trigger Spring CP Gauge 2k4 Chaos Board |

| One question- If you have an autococker and are a not fan of tippys then why the hell are you in this forum? Seriously though, just cuz you got a autococker doesnt mean your a god. This fat kid at my school was boasting on and on but how his cocker owns. But then one day i got him to go the field im usually at,(woodsball, a little bit of speedball) my asa was screwed up so i rented a m98. And I'm proud to say I owned him like 5 times outta 7 games, including speedball. I'm not saying all cockers blow I'm just supporting the one dudes views bout how its the players skills mainly, not the gun. |

This the best point that was made in this thread. I've seen far too many people out there who think that a trick gun makes up for lousey play and lack of tactics. I've shot countless numbers of such players out, over the years. The Autococker is a very good gun, as is the A-5. Neither one will be very effective, however, if the guy behind the triger doesn't know how to use them. |

An R/T'd tippy will outshoot a mechanical cocker. While an autococker has more possibilities with upgrading.

Guys the autococker and the flatline are two great inventions for the speedball, and woodsball player but what happend when they made a flatline cocker??? it was heaven. My friend has one of those and I love when he brings it to play. They should remake this gun

No an e-bladed or raced cocker is better then an a-5 with response. Tippmannn a-5s are capped it 15bps while its easy to rip out more on a e-cocker, not to mention you have the cyclone on the a-5 is the most unreiliabe thing in the world. My a-5 chopped probably 2-3 out every 10 shots meanwhile my angel has less then 10 chops and i have had it since august ------------- Red Proto Matrix Black Check It Uni Mount |

| I would say autococker, I love my A-5 to death, but it's just too heavy and bulky. For half of this season I have been using my 68 Special and my friends Free Flow Autococker because they smaller and a lot lighter. I currently am building a custom autococker, 02 Dye Reflex body, can't wait to finish it and play with it next season. |

speedball is more fast paced and you need or its better to have a smaller/lighter gun that can shoot at a decent ROF, Woodsball well everyone knows what that is. ------------- *Team Compulsive* Sponsors *Won-Ago-Biking* *Curleys Waterfront* |

| The only reason that a person with a cocker can beat a person with a tippy is really the accuracy and skill. Big deal if you can shoot 20 balls a second with your cocker, all that proves is you got money and you can pin someone down for a while. One well placed shot from a tippy, or any gun at that, can take on a person with any marker goin full blaze on you. Whats a good gun if theres no skill behind it? Some guns are better than other FOR DIFFERENT GAMES AND PURPOSES but yet again the reason your getting people out with better guns is either skill or a lucky shot. |
