Well there are other guns out there. If you want to spend the money. Try an Angel, Automag, Bob Long. Anything can be outdone. But it all depends on what type of play you like and how much you want. I like Tippmann for the price it is hard to beat. There are alot of guns out there. As long as it shoots and works all is good. Heck I played a game this past summer and a guy had a splatmaster and he was getting people out. I just sold my Tippmann pump sl-68II for a pump it was great. So if you Like your gun and it works super. I think we should havea game of blow gun paintball that way some of the people who have alot of air to use up on this would be shooting like 20 bps with a blow gun....lol- Rob

Tim Tippman markers are by far the best markers available. Autocockers you mean (non autocockers). the more exspencive the gun the more problems you have. ---------------------------------- Tim i am going to have to embarase you, i like ya but i have to do it. Lol. An autococker is based on the sniper paintball marker developed in the late 80's by bud orr. He made this out of frustration of using the single cocking turning prcedures of the older guns. The pumping rod stuck out of the front of the gun (where the pneumatics sit ona currnet day autococker) which what pumped for each shot. Hence the pump gun title. Then the race for the semi- gun began the first semis reunreliable and broke down constntly then the race for the fully automatic gun began. The first company to develop a fully automatic marker was tippmann SMG(Pm to learn more pb history). Well bud orr keep working on his semi-auto gun and well he being a suba diver and engineer use different cycliders to recocker the gun useing other wise wasted gas. It AUTO matically COCKED the sear allowing for a shot every time you pulled the trigger. The accuracy it gets is because the bolt is closed when it fires the same as a pump which are more accurate then a semi most of the time. congratulations, you just typed a paragraph on the history of the cocker that has absolutely nothing to do with the topic at hand. and the "more expensive gun means more problems" may be true, but then why dont everyone at tournaments use tippys? you degrade cockers and it sounds like your saying that tippmanns are better. and another flaw in your history lesson was that you said cockers get their accuracy by being closed bolt operation. obviously this isnt true because there has been recent studies on the matter proving it to be false. www.warpig.com/paintball/technical/paintguns/balistic/closedopen.shtml proof
