Funny thing is that no matter what electro-whiz-bang shooter I have, I still default out to my Cocker more often than not.
And yeah, if I'd been paying out of pocket for this, it would have been brutal. Fortunately, my electronic guns are the results of trade deals rather than purchases. |

My old girl.
Ex-Autococker that I bought from Limey a long time ago. The front end eventually quit working (seals failed in the ram and I ruined the barbs) so I replaced it with a Sniper setup. It's got a Dye aluminum with a Lapco .685 sizer, and that hopper is an APP 50-rounder that I just got.
It used to be HPA with a Stabilizer, but those bits got sold off for spending money some time ago. I'm wondering how it'll do on unregged CO2. It's got a Lightning bolt and I thought it had a Tornado valve but I'm not sure. Maybe Limey remembers? Either way, I need to see what it'll do over a chrono. Someday maybe I'll get it retuned for CO2.
The bottomline/stock setup is a kludge of scuffed up parts that works better than it looks. It's actually a Smart Parts on-off bottomline ASA with a macroline fitting stuck in it; I need a vise and a proper wrench to remove it, neither of which have been easily available. |

You know, I remember the Autococker but I'm afraid don't remember much about the internals. I do remember that I loved the trigger, though my Blazer (also long since gone) was still always what I preferred.
Anyway, it's looking good. Glad that you're getting some use out of it.  _________________ "Fill her backpack with bricks and throw her into Candy Cane river..." |

Well, I'm gonna try to. Seriously, playing once a year is for the birds, but I found a field that's close, affordable, and doesn't seem to be a magnet for tourney jerks (there's another field that fits that bill). |

I miss my Bushmaster and Automag.
Still have the Electro Piranha and thinking about liquidating that to put towards a handgun. _________________ The poster formally known as "SWATPuppy" |

Zipgun?
Want combat tupperware of some kind to carry. Looking at either an XD or S&W M&P though I haven't ruled out a Glock. _________________ The poster formally known as "SWATPuppy" |

Oh I know what a zipgun is...just hit my funny bone for some reason.
What model XDM? 3.8" 4.5"?
Springfield is coming out with a .45 XD-M that I may need to take a look at. _________________ The poster formally known as "SWATPuppy" |
