Cockers are in the first link, Mags are in the second.

[Kanas]

thanks but like can you walk the triggers?

[cockerpunk]

on most you cannot.

[Kanas]

what are the adventages?

[Z3R0]

They're a lot of fun. That's really about it, they don't have many real advantages over modern markers as far as performance. It's like driving an 80s muscle car versus a brand new Ferrari. Maybe the Ferrari technically does the job better, but some people are always going to prefer their classic Camaro, you know?

[Kanas]

I under stand they are classics! so what would be a good entry cocker or mag that is attractive =)

[Z3R0]

Take a look at the used marker sections on here, Automags.org, mcarterbrown.com, and customcockers.com. You can find pretty basic but still fully functional Cockers and Mags for $100 most of the time, sometimes up to $150. There are certainly more expensive ones to be had, up to $1000 or more, but there are still more basic ones for $100-150 at almost any time on the market if you take a look.

Thanks! any recomendations?

Generally all mech cockers are the same. You pay for the rarity of bodies and extras for the most part. 2k2 cockers are going for around $130 and are fun. Cockers are finicky though and you will have to time them and sweetspot them.

Classic mags go anywhere from $50-$150 and are light and fun. You do not have to time them or tune them and they are very simple and reliable.

Honestly, I wouldn't recommend an Autococker to somebody who doesn't really know anything about them. They can be so finicky and they can be really hard to fix sometimes. The only Autococker I would recommend to somebody that doesn't have any experience with them is the Trilogy line, since they don't have a frontblock and aren't as complicated as traditional Autocockers.

thanks, what about a mag?

[PBpancake]

Automags are pretty easy to deal with, I think. Just get a nice, simple Clasic Mag or MniMag.

But beware, the stock trigger is as hard to pull as a rock. Try to find one with a double trigger or a different trigger and trigger frame than the stock one.

Thanks for the Help! have an nice holiday season.

I would definitely recommend a nice mag.
They are very easy to maintain and play with and are extremely reliable (as much, if not more-so than a Tippmann).
And they range from the humble $100 workhorse, the 68 Classic.


To the super up'd and customized $500 sex-machines, like mine.



No matter which mag you choose, I guarantee it'll treat you right

The enjoyment of classic paintballing.

/\ Exactly

the only reason i would be careful with a mag is that if you don't have a lvl 10 you will chop higher end paint, you pretty much have to keep to field grade paint to shoot it out of a mag that does not have a lvl 10. autocockers however it is damn near impossible to chop if they are setup properly and you don't short-stroke it.

[AbRa KaDaBrA]

it almost hurts to see this question get asked =[ i must be getting old of somthing lol if i had to choose between a mag and a cocker though i LOVE cockers. ive owned quite a few (not as many as a lot of members here though) i like them because you can do SO MUCH with them, they can be mech or electro, pump or semi its all in the way you set it up. you can even build your own cockers from the ground up on some sites like paintballgateway.com
