Yes, the venerable Autococker. In the world of paintball, few other guns have the same level legacy that the Autococker has. As an indicator, which has spanned all eras of paintball history. It began as a Pump Gun in the form of snipers, and changing all the way to aa high-end, the barrel of the tournament today grade high precision electronic versions. In this article, I will indicate basic steps on how this transformation occurred, and how it has changed the game of paintball.
At first, there were firearms in the pump. One of the rather respect of these weapons was Bud Orr Sniper pump. With his sturdy, robust, proven to be a force sniper to take into account. Even in the days pump pistol, the sniper developed a reputation for accuracy and reliability.
Of course, the era of weapons of the pump will not last forever. With the advent Semi Automatic Paintball Guns as the VM-68 and Automag, it was clear that the days of pump guns in the mainstream of paintball were numbered. Bud Orr, always inventive, set yourself. Since he already had a strong design with its snipers, it was decided to convert the design to a semi automatic.
To accomplish this, Orr devised an ingenious system that automatically operates the pneumatic pump in the sniper when the trigger was pulled. It was this system that gives the Autococker his name, as it is simply a pump gun pump. Orr refined his design and put into production.
When the Autococker was released for the first time, quickly developed a reputation for being unreliable. This was mainly due to the complexity of the pneumatic system, which requires a skill mechanical set correctly. In addition, many of the parties actions are not extremely high quality, leading them to be replaced by spare parts. However, All this made the incredibly popular Autococker boilermakers, who took the gun as a platform for custom creations.
It was the aftermarket Autococker really helped to take off. After some modifications were made, became the Autococker a fast, accurate and reliable Paintball Gun decently.
This helped him pick up a new momentum among paintball enthusiasts. Worr Games took note of this popularity, and quickly began to improve quality Autococker population, which helped boost the popularity of firearms among amateur players. The Autococker had secured their place in the world of paintball.
However, things were changing in the world of paintball. With weapons such as the Angel, it became clear that electronic markers offered a serious speed advantage serious players. The Autococker was slow in comparison, and began to lose ground among professional players. Of course, the Boilermakers not unauware of this problem, and began to create electronic systems for the Autococker activation. At first, these systems were plagued by problems sting ball, but with the advent of Anti Chop eye electronic systems and high-speed charger, these problems were quickly resolved. Electronics Autocockers became a common site on the professional circuit.
As time passed, simpler electronic markers began to dominate in many areas. However, even Autococker is used by many who enjoy its unique atmosphere, sound and unlimited configuration capabilities. Should be interesting to see what the future holds for this marker venerable.

Carbon Fiber Tank, 4500 psi, 88 cu ft $839.99 DOT-approved Carbon fiber filament wound over aluminum bladder 88 cu ft 4500 psi max pressure 11.3 lbs dry weight Includes: Hose with 1/8" BSPP threads on both ends Seal washer Hose has an inline gauge (eliminates use of a yoke) Air Venturi female quick-disconnect adapter with 1/8" BSPP male threads on one end This is not a scuba tank. It’s a carbon fiber tank, which is also called an scba tank, and has a high-pressure scba valve…like the one firefighters use on their scba tanks. Many dive shops do not have the ability to fill these tanks. In some towns, the fire department has a compressor that can fill a high-pressure carbon fiber tank, as firefighters use smaller scba tanks for breathing equipment during rescues. You might want to approach your local fire department and ask if they would be willing to fill your high-pressure carbon fiber/scba tank from their compressor. Another alternative is to contact a local paintball store, as paintballers use carbon fiber tanks to fill their markers. If the only alternative you have is to fill your high-pressure carbon fiber scba tank at a dive shop, a 1/8" BSPP male to DIN female adapter (our part # AA-Z2128-300) can temporarily replace the hose on the valve adapter so the dive shop can fill your tank. |
