: I ran a 2002 autococker for quite a while and loved it, even right out of the box. Sure, it isn't a supercocker and yes, it will chop balls if not properly timed, but EVERY autococker will chop if not properly timed and maintained. If you are really worried about it, though, why not just buy a body and build a cocker from scratch IE buy the individual parts to make a great cocker. How much are you planning on spending all told on this little venture of yours? It makes a difference. hmmmm where to begin... it will chop balls if not properly timed, true but the if his friends cocker was right out of the box it wasn't timing that was his problem... All autocockers from the factory are timed PERFECTLY (with few exceptions), i think i'd know i work in a store and we sell lots of them and only once in a blue moon does one need to be tweeked. Next, "but EVERY autococker will chop if not properly timed and maintained". Very true, and that's not all that being out of time will do to you. Best advice though is... DON'T MESS WITH IT! (for devon) no offense but i'm sure you don't know anything about autocockers... don't mess with yours, if you want some upgrades for it, (which i don't recomend at first) let a pro-shop do it and have them explain what they're doing so you can learn. Next... "why not just buy a body and build a cocker from scratch IE buy the individual parts to make a great cocker" I can't believe your telling someone who has never even owned a cocker before to try and build one from scratch... his head is gonna be spinning between all the upgrades available and then actually putting the gun together. The best thing to do is to buy the stock cocker, play with it, see what things about it you don't like after a couple times out and then see what upgrades are available to take care of the problem. In conclusion, the new 2003 stock cockers are GREAT! They come stock with a hinge trigger (the hinge trigger will make the gun a lot easier to learn how to shoot and you won't chop as much as you would at the beginning with the old slider triggers) Go for a 2003 they look great and shoot great. then take it from there Hons
