I think of all the markers I have owned since I bought my first marker in 86 or 87 are now. I mean I remember a Sheridan rifle but I can't remember when or to who I actually sold it. PMI 2, PMI 68 Mag, Line SI Bushmaster, Tippmann 68 Special, Tippmann Pro Am, Cockers upon Cockers, Angel LCD with AIR, Skull Pullpin Impulse, Free Flow cocker with a Race Grip, etc....

I think I traded in the PMI 2 for the 68 Mag. I bought the Line SI Bushmaster in 88 and somehow lost it in 99 or 2000. I think I sold the 68 Special to a friend. The Pro Am was sold to a dude who showed up at the field wanting a marker for his kid. It was almost 10 years old at the time and I gave him a really cheap price.

Cockers I have built have been numerous and I honestly can only remember a few of them. I gave the Angel to Rob of DEZign Bolts for all the work he has done for me over the years. I think I sold the Skull Pullpin Impulse to Larry IOG. I have absolutely no clue who I sold the FF Cocker to but I remember I sold it for 1100 via pay pal.

Now I look in my workshop I see a cocker from the early 90s but have no clue where or how it has come into my possession nor what to do with it. Sorry there guys, just rambling.

Oh yeah there were a couple of mags in there at one point in time or another and probably more markers that I just can't remember.

No way. Where did they sell it for that much? The cocker I have is serial number 6714.

and that's in great condition too! not worth a red cent to most people but i'm sure if you hunted around enough you could fetch a mighty fine price for that one.

Damn El Pirata I could have swore you stole those pics of my first cocker back in 97 before I got it milled.!!! Nasty old matte black finish and no kinda milling and also no detent which most didnt catch on those pics. I wish I still had that jewel but at last its long gone. I can feel you though on those pics brings up long memories long gone by.

And before that I used a Tippman 68 Carbine since it was the gun of the year by certain magazines. Then of course was my major purchase to that ugly cocker that I loved for the time. Well milling and polishing later it was long gone and YES I wish I could find it and keep it as a keepsake of the first "Tourney Gun" I ever had.
