    WTB: My First Autococker on a budget

    ****FOUND****

    I know im late to the game. But ive wanted an Autococker forever.
    Just getting back into it with some friends.
    Was interested in a WGP Trilogy but open to others.
    Looking to spend about $100~
    For that price it will probably be bone stock and need alittle love to get running correctly.
    Figured id make a post and see if I get lucky.

    Thanks

    You should be able to find a stock Trilogy or older stock RF cocker for around $100. Dye released a balanced valve called the Lazarus that fits in Trilogies which has made their secondhand price come up a bit. I think I have a stock Trilogy Sport in pieces kicking around, but it was pumped and I don't think I have the pneumatics

      Thanks for the info now i know why ive been outbid on the last 5 trilogys on ebay. LOL
      They did have upgrades though.
      I will keep bidding on stuff and looking around on forums.
      I dont know pricing but how much would the pneumatics cost on average if bought used?
      Me and a group of about 15-20 friends are going paintballing sometime next month when it cools down.
      I was hoping to have a working cocker by then but if not all good. Id just like to have one to work on for the next trip we make out.
      Im hoping to get atleast 3-5 from this group to start coming out with me more regularly.

        In the current market budget and cocker doesn't mix well you're going to have to be quick or lucky

          Yeah eBay is not great for paintball stuff anymore. Making this thread was a good idea. I've always bid sniped stuff if I'm using the bay, that way you don't have bids on 3 markers and if they all end up winning you spend way more than you wanted to.

          Even still $100 is going to be tough.

          Getting a pneumatics package for a trilogy is going to most likely mean you are just buying a mostly complete parts trilogy to get the front end off of it. The 3 way and LPR are specific to the trilogy so there really are not other options for bolt on parts.

          Hell if you are just looking for a cocker this has been up for sale on my local cl for a while. It's a dragunfly e cocker. Not exactly known for quality but it might work for you

          https://portland.craigslist.org/yam/...779856361.html

          I don't know a ton about dragunflys but it doesn't have a regulator on it which.... I'm not sure if that was stock or not. Quick Google search, it looks like most people put regulators on them so keep that in mind

            Yeah, i get that $100-$130 might be hard to get a cocker. Thats pretty much how much id like to spend initially.
            I know ill probably have to drop abit more money to get it running correctly plus upgrades.
            Ill just keep at it and hopefully I get a bit on this thread.
            Probably will try to randomly hit up pawnshops just incase i get lucky that way too.

            Thanks for sharing that drag but im trying to stick to something like the trilogy that will be more reliable.

                  Big thanks to Lobo Fuerte 2.0

                  Scooped this up
                  https://www.ebay.com/itm/405241054308?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=XvtHuAA9R3m&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=1FXsWCuT S3 m&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

                  Now to figure out what hopper to get, probably a Revy is all i need for this

                            Hence why I didn't trust anyone on eBay.

                            Find something here. I've never had a bad transaction through mcb
