Good question. I used mine for the first time on Sunday after years of using a Mag. What a difference. (Only caused God to kill 2 kittens). Only one complaint: gas hungry! Looks like I got some spending to do. Any ideas or suggestions anyone?
Can't say enough to praise the Empire barrel system either.

Gas hungry?

Can get a good 8/9 pots and a hopper out of my 68 4500 system :) I take it you got a stock cocker then mate?

Me too - 9 pot pack and a halo from one 4500 fill. Cockers rule :D

'Fraid so. She's as stock as they come, ('cept for the swing frame).
Trouble is, me little Nitro Duck system, only 3000 psi, 0.8 litre see.
Have to see what Santa comes up with.

Inkn - have you looked at getting a better valve?

Not yet Tom, think it's got to be a winter project so it comes out rocking in the Spring. Always open to suggestions which bits to upgrade/modify first. I keep having a look at the Pl#@......, Ec@#%........ them lot up in Manchester web site, but too many shiny, sparkley things to choose from, that's probably why my Mag looks like an Eclipse, shoots like an Eclipse, but isn't. Don't want to go the same way with the Cocker. Keep it simple, but damned effective and efficient.:)

Well, to improve gas efficiancy, get an evo valve and delrin bolt.

To improve accuracy, get a decent barrel.

To improve consistancy, get a decent air system and decent vertical regulator.

To increase cycle rate, get a decent ram, lightweight pump arm, lightweight back block, delrin bolt, race frame, etc etc :D

Decent barrel I got already: Empire system.
Bolt is an ANS quick-pull venturi. (No pin to loose).
Looks like another browse through Fatbobs shop, don't it?
