Thoughts on the Resurrection cocker?

[Raven911]

If I can find some to fit. I have to go by the shop Friday anyway. I’ll see what they have

Ok guys. Got my cocker and love it. The one problem I have is the macroline between the asa and the reg. It leaks like crazy until I play with it and get it to seat. I tried replacing the line and it still does it. My next move is going to be replace one of the fittings with a 90 degree that I have and use a longer piece. Anyone have any suggestions?

Reject modernity embrace tradition. Steel braided hose is your huckleberry.

You don't oil plastic or delrin bolts.....

Ok just got my new cocker and I love it. I haven’t had a brand new gun in over 20 years. Haven’t got to air it up yet, but I noticed that the bolt had grease on it. In the old days we used oil on cockers. Im of a kind to clean that crap out and oil it. Love the stock trigger too. Im so happy. Hopefully I can go lay this weekend before the winter storm hits.

Awesome. Order placed. Soon should be able to play with it in two weeks. I’ll try to get my Ion up and going and see if my daughter likes it. Thought I may keep her with her M98.

If you want a trigger you can short stoke there is an inception option for that. It’s got a longer slower trigger pull that you can short stroke. The stock trigger is setup like a well adjusted cocker so the trigger has a short lighter pull it’s pretty difficult to short stroke. I like the short pull and don’t get why someone would want a marker that was easier to short stroke. There is a short and snappy Inception trigger option as well as roller sears, hammer and spring upgrades and such. A buddy of mine had one with a ripper body fully upgraded with some fancy valve and a Deadly winds. It’s was the quietest shooting cocker I ever shot. Definitely one of the fastest non electric one I have shot as well.

The Resurrection is fantastic but its worth noting that it doesn’t have a back block that goes back and forth, so at the end of the day just doesn’t quite feel like a full body cocker. If you are really looking for a cocker that might be a thing. The are great though, shoot well, trigger is snappy and has a bit of a clinky sound, light, reliable, fantastic barrel and ASA.

Ive built a few from the ground up over the years...

Well then, this is clearly the answer. Embrace tradition!

thanks guys. Ive built a few from the ground up over the years so it sounds like its nothing I can't handle

I don't see that many autocockers with the frames broken, where are you getting that? A 2000 autococker is a great buy and work right out of the gate really well. Automags proved the fiber reinforced nylon frames aren't any more prone to breaking than the pot metal or aluminum frames.

If you can, try out an Emek! Unless you are set on using a cocker. For the price range, you could snag something a bit more unique and built with better parts than the Resurrection. But the Ress is a good bang for the buck if you want brand new.

They don't seem to come with the air hissing, spring swapping, reg fiddling, hose popping, fitting taping, timing adjustment, hair pulling love fest that old cockers require. So they probably suck (coming from a guy who kinda loves to hate loving those things listed)

If you want an autococker for some reason, I think they are the best way to go without needing to mod anything extensively.

The pneumatics don't need replacing, the reg doesn't need replacing, the feedneck doesn't need replacing, they are already mid blocks and they have a great slider frame.

Only thing you may want to do is replace the trigger plate with one that works like a normal cocker and tune accordingly.

I heard the hammer is weird too and cocks wrong? if so I'd order a CCM midblock hammer and replace with that and tune again.

Otherwise the next best gun is a trilogy but they need a feedneck modification to be usable pretty much. Otherwise stock they are kinda good to go.

Other good bet is a right feed 2000 autococker and you just need to get it a trigger frame that isn't broken so its like 120 for the cocker and 120 for the frame and you've got a great gun. Maybe you need O rings which you can get at any Ace hardware.

If you're determined to buy new then the Resurrection is pretty decent as others have said.

That being said I'd hold out for a used WGP gun specifically an 03 or 04 prostock or even a Trilogy with some mods.
