ion or autococker

[sureshot684]

i just joined a team and i dont know wich gun i should upgrade to. i was thinking of an ion or the 2004 vertical feed autocock. the only problem is that i dont know if i can take good care of the auto cocker. wich gun do you think i should get?

Great phrase goes with a cocker:

Take care of your cocker, and it'll take care of you.

This also applies to several other guns as well. But Cockers can get complicated. Out of the box, the Ion will blow the cocker away. But when you've upped that cocker, it is a major competitor. Just be aware that cockers can be MAJOR money pits. i would just go for the Ion personally.

Honestly, I've heard that Ions require perhaps even more TLC than Cockers, certainly they're in the same class for maintainance amount. I'd personally recommend either a Bushmaster, or from the ones you put there, an Autococker, because you don't need to replace a Cocker EVER, you just keep upgrading...and upgrading...and upgrading...and yes, this is my first post here in a year+.

And spend money, and money, and money... ;)

While yes, chances are he will upgrade any gun he buys, I'm just going with my cocker expenses. Over 1K put into it and I'm still not satisfied.

and have you ever shot a upgraded cocker? if oyu put enough into even a Trilogy Pro you can get it to contend with Angel G-7s and the likes.

What are you looking for accuracy I would go out and buy the autococker. If your looking for fast speed and you want it fast go with the Ion. But also look you can go get the autococker and then later on go get the E2 or E1. Thats what I would suggest.

Go for the cocker you can upgrade those lil sukas soo much you could smoke a ###### little ion

i had a 2004 autococker for a year before i sold it, never once did i have ANY problems with it, just took out the bolt and cleaned it after every game and that was it.

iv shot an ion, i hate the trigger on them, i wasnt impressed

Both are amazing guns but as dyedude said if you are a baller on a budget an autococker may not be for you. If you have cash to through away though the cockers will definitiely be worth the effort when decently upgraded
