    What companies (if any) are making complete Autocockers these days?

    Everywhere I look complete guns are out of stock and just a few parts left. I'd love to get a new flashy milled and annod gun but the places that were around just a few years ago like Freeflow are gone.
    I just want to be able to say *this* body, *these* parts and in *these* colors.
    Is everyone gone?

    Nova makes the NX1. I have heard some mixed feelings about the quality, but the price is good

        I would caution on spending your money on anything Nova. Unless you enjoy dealing with inferior imitation products with half assed effort in copying, poor quality control, bad customer service and have no issues with wasting money, because you will need to spend additional time and $$$ to make what you purchase usable. If you are good with all of that, I have some Nova stuff I would like to sell to you.

          If you love quality and supporting a great guy, but hate selection, don't forget about Docfire: https://docfirepaintball.com/collections/markers

            Shocktech still makes complete guns and they are amazing. Top quality made in the USA.

              I have recently purchased a 97 mini cocker, 98 STO Autococker, 2 2k centerfeed autocockers, and a 2k? KAPP Classic. All from EBay. Cheapest was $150 most expensive was $700. So if I can find 5, fix em, and have them sent to Docfire for rebuild then you can too!

              You’ve gotta set up a saved search in eBay and check it every morning. Allot of people don’t know what’s what and just want to dump sale their old junk. $150 is the new $50.

              Contact shocktech and see if they’ve got anything in the works.

                I have Autococker, kapp Autococker, paintball, and Angel paintball.

                I search newly listed and keep tabs on when something is new but the price is low. It’s mostly rip off high prices and crap, but every once in a while something legit swims through the searches. And I catch it.

                I browse eBay every day. For the past 3 years maybe 4. It’s pretty bad. Finding a good deal has become my social media.

                  Shocktech will do custom orders. It just takes some time.

                  If you are looking for something already put together and ready to roll. I typically have some stuff kicking around on my website.(https://beardedworks.com/collections/markers)

                    I was just about to suggest Inception Designs when I decided to double check their page and found zero cockers available. What happened there?

                      transitioned to emeks and emf100's. hard to support cockers without making frames and bodies.

                    I have 2 Snipers and an electro 'Cocker hanging on the wall and 2 or 3 in parts...this is what's on my workbench right now; but when I was younger I never got into the whole custom anno thing (which I'm kicking myself for) and I saw an acid washed teal and purple 'Cocker recently that I fell in love with. I realized I don't have a single 'Cocker that isn't black or even a slider frame. I was originally going to put a Raceframe on this one but I dunno...anyway I'm old now and I'm starting to collect the toys I wanted as a young man, but not nearly the same energy.

                      Haha it’s got the little hole in the left side of the body. It’s also got KAPP back block, vigilante air America HPR, KAPP cocking rod, a sweet ANS ram, I had one of those back in the day. I want another. The Body is 98? It’s got the straight sight rails, not the rounded ones that started in 2000/2001

                      For a little while there Simon was the ONLY outfit making parts. I think he found it wasn't worth the effort once competitors resumed production and split the market. He probably also thought Emeks would become the dominate mech platform going forward for competition play.

                        I'd have to concur with him on that last bit. You can pour a lot of money into a cocker build and still have an Emek outperform it, especially with upgrades. And even if you get the cocker outshooting the Emek, we all know which one will always come out of the bag ready to play without any tinkering.

                        Every now and then, I start to get the urge to embark on a Trilogy sleeper build, but what holds me back is reminding myself that it won't outperform the Emek I already have. That pretty quickly kills any willingness to put hundreds into the cocker.
