Ok so in the spring
Im going to be getting my self a cocker but I'm sort of on a budget... and the thing is after I get my bottom line, cocker, hopper I'm not going to have very much $$$ for a barrel and from what Ive heard the stock 2k3 barrels are crap, SOO I was wondering since I have a progressive for my sypder why not spend $35 for the Lapco Barrel Adaptor so I can use my Progressive. Would this be a good idea since I wont have money for a decent barrel for my marker for like 5 months ( want my next barrel to be a system like a kaner or J&J)

OH and would I need a spyder to autococker
(b)spyder(m)Autococker - 35.99

GO HERE TO SEE ADAPTOR!!!- its at the bottom. (http://www.canadianpaintball.com/main/barrels/lapco.htm)

You're better off using the stock barrel and putting the $35 towards the kit.

The adapter is gonna be a different bore size, therefore it's gonna mess stuff up... and besides, for that price, you can get a CP 1 Piece.

yeah if you absolutely want a new barrel do what teuf said and get a cp 1 piece.

I'll reiterate...

WHY DO YOU ALWAYS JUST REPHRASE WHAT SOMEONE ELSE SAID!?

I have a lapco barrel adapter and while it works in a pinch, it kinda screws up your breech sizing because of how it's designed. The one I have goes from large bore to small bore very quickly which increases the chance of getting a barrel break in my experience.

which is worthless... if the info is there, it's there. if there's something else to be covered, then cover it. If not, you're a post-whore..

Chill out Teuf. A lot of people like to hear someone second something. I know I do. It's nice to know that more then one person thinks something is either good or bad.

I also agree with you Teuf on the barrel.

Put that $35 towards a new barrel and sell your old progressive, then mow lots of lawns.
