i just bought a new stock 2001 cocker. i would like to know what my first upgrades should be

i already have a nitro duck preset screw in nitrogen system and a benchmark cradle, but other than that i havent a thing, not even a upgraded barrel.
other than a barrel, what all do i need for a tight gun. ive heard that palmers front regs are nice? any input at all would be helpful, thanks

Palmer's front regs are the best you can get. But get a new barrel first, and then the front reg..

I would suggust geting a barrel first, than before you even think about anything else get a new trigger frame. The stock frames suck.

yeah i'v heard about stuff like cradles stripping off the thread ing from the handel of the stock cocker frame cuz it was too heavy, and hte grip frame was too weak and stuff..

Dont worry about the pneumatics at first. Besides the 3way it wont make a difference and the new cockers have good 3ways now. After a barrel the best thing is to get a new frame with a trigger job. You can have a gun that shoots as fast as any $100o gun by just getting a frame and a good trigger job. After that think about making it lower pressure to get a softer trigger pull and to make it more consistant. The front reg and the ram would probably be the last thing I would replace since they would make the least difference. (unless you have a super old cocker).
