/r/Autocockers101
I recently bought a shocktech pneumatics set for the 03 WGP vert feed cocker I am building. The set came with a low pressure chamber. Will it give a conventional body cocker any advantage? Not so much new to cockers but it's been 20 years since having one and I mostly had stock WGP's with aftermarket regs and bolts. Any advice appreciated.
I've go a few old school barrels (a Dye UL, and Armson rifled, plus a couple of WGP) I'd like to get milled for freak inserts. Super Stanchy used to do it back in the day, but not sure if he's still around. Any suggestions on who I can go to nowadays. Been out fo the sport for a decade and looking to get back in with some of my "relic" markers.
Hey all. New to autocockers and have a basic understanding of how they operate. I bought a trilogy pro second hand about a month ago.
When I first took it out to play it worked flawlessly. But since then every time I air it up it leaks until I manually cock the bolt back, then in fires and cycles as normal. I’ve cleaned and lubed the bolt thinking that might be the issue but it still happens.
What could be causing this?
Thinking about starting on a project cocker, but have general questions about anno/finishing... I see several parts are offered in "raw" unannodized form, which I assume would be easiest to anno... Several body kits I have seen require "minor finishing" prior to anno... Is this something the anno shop would take care of?
Also, lets say you purchase an older cocker and fix it up. Would you be able to re-anno to a color of your choice without issues? Does anyone have an ballpark figure on what to expect price wise? I was thinking a single color, either polished or dust finish, nothing crazy. Thanks!
I don’t know much about autocockers. I believe this is a WGP but unsure of the model.
Recently had a marker teched by well known tech. Marker came back working flawless. They suggested I put qevs. Ok no big deal. So I do, wait a day come back to air it up, now the solenoid is leaking. Bad qev? I did not adjust anything. Just remove hoses. Remove barbs. Replace barb with qev. Replace hoses with new hose. That's it. I'm at a loss
I’m another 30 some year old who would like to come back to the sport now that I’m an adult and live close to paintball fields. I miss my beautiful autococker that I sold when I left the sport. Anyways money is a bit tight and rather than spend money on some entry level cocker from twenty some years ago I figure I can just buy it piece by piece. Is there a good online guide for building your own and does anybody have a parts master list so I can see how viable building one from scratch would be? Thanks
Can anyone confirm the model/year of this AC? It has a serial number 95006.
When i looked at a serial chart it says 2000 but i dont think thats right based on other pics ive seen.
I was thinking it was more like a '97?
Im looking to start paintballing again and wanted to pick up a project to mess around with and shoot.
Also could somebody tell me common issues with this particular model?
Thanks
I have a Vigilante reg on one of my autocockers I'd like to turn into a pump. Seeings how it is an uncommon HPR to have I figured it would be cool to use it if I can. The gun has sat around for 20 years since I was a kid. Looking for any info or if rebuild parts are available. I emailed Immortal Air which claims to support AA stuff but they never got back to me. Any help appreciated.
Is there a difference between flat, coned or rounded hammer lugs? If so what are the applications best for each?
Looking to purchase an autococked body to do a mech build and I'm seeing a lot of body's drilled for eyes. If I'm just using it as a mech, will the holes for the eyes give me any issues?

I am working on suping up a WGP 2K2 prostock and I am looking to replace the lower tube internals. Does anyone know what is a good valve/hammer to use for this marker? Thanks!
Does anyone have a chart with the bolt lengths for Autocockers? I just bought a trident bolt from ebay that was advertised as 2k+ length, but it's almost an inch shorter than all the other 2k bolts i have.
