Sorry, I got myself confused and have edited my last post!

So is the pro stock http://www.worr.com/prostock.asp the latest model that WGP make that people refer to as the autococker rather than the cheaper "trilogy" version?

You can get what seems to be the 2004 original version (not the prostock) here http://www.actionvillage.com/is-bin/INTERSHOP.enfinity/eCS/Store/en/-/USD/DisplayProductInformation-Start;sid=EV4RYjzyCaMRTnqssanRyjZUGS91OOW4WRY=?ProductID=U32sFAY75LgAAAD61_7inKHi
for $189 which is less than £95 :)
I have both 04 & 06 bodied cockers. The 04 has a fixed non-adjustable feed neck, where as the 06 has a screw fit clamping neck - i've a Hybrid neck on mine. The 04 neck is too big for my Egg, too small for a VL revvy but just right for an old empire S/A reloader.

i think they are sold under the name of empire reloader 2 (if anyone is interested in buying 1 or finding reviews or watnot)

for a vl revvy just sand the feedneck down till it fits

Mate, you are a star! It is always so encouraging when you join a forum and get sensible answers from people who (seem to!) know what they are talking about rather than garble from muppets!
Welcome aboard Alex, the way i look at it is that we were all newbies at some time............some of us longer ago than we can remember:(
If you want borrocks then go onto PBnation, the place is infested with 12 year old americans who's guns are all rippin' :rolleyes:

The freak isn't the best but it's a good solid performer for your first set up:)

The belsales Evolutions are about the best "mechanical" cocker out there and therefore fully site friendly.

The Automag is here in the US> http://store.airgun.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=catalog.catalog
and still going strong

The Prostock is further up the food chain than the trilogy and uses more "normal" parts, so if you can get one at around this price
189.99 USD = 95.9643 GBP
United States Dollars United Kingdom Pounds
1 USD = 0.505102 GBP 1 GBP = 1.97980 USD
Then I'd say that was a good deal:cool:
As has been noted that the 04 has a fixed feed neck which means you have to sandpaper your hoppers feed tube to make it fit, it's a bit of a crap design but if you have one marker to one hopper then there is no problem.
I have the 04 myself and used it with a sanded down Egg2 for a while until i switched over to the dark side. now the only remaining original parts of my prostock are the body and back block, admittedly i've spent the budget of a small African nation but it's my demoncocker and i love it.

Here's another idea :D

Go buy a revvy/egg and a barrel/kit for the regular days. The barrel will help with the accuracy and the revvy should help with a more consistent feed rate. If the site you go to uses infernos then you'd need a barrel with a spyder thread, if they have tippmann 98s then you'd need the 98 thread.
Note: The egg might over feed on the rental guns and force more than one ball in the breach which you don't want ;)

Then go get an Ion/PMR and you can use the revvy/egg on it and go play walk-on days :cool: also by the sounds of it your local site uses CO2 and you can't use CO2 with an Ion/PMR so you might have to go get an air system too and if the site doesn't have any way of filling air bottles then that won't help either. Also you won't be able to use the barrels you got for rental days on the Ion/PMR due to different threads :(
