Ca$h Money - A classic finally built back up and working. One of the very few Todd Martinez signature series Cash Money Aftershock Autocockers. This was Todd's only personal signature series gun.
Kenny Klamper's 2001 World Cup Shocktech Autococker - The original Silver Surfer. I met Kenny when he was aa 15-year-old kid who didn't really have a team and who played paintball like no one I'd ever met. He moved backwards on the field as often as forward and was wildly unpredictable. We played an event together and got booted by the field owner because he thought we were going to win against his local team (made up of future Strange players). When I couldn't play Skyball with Jacksonville Warriors, I asked Kenny to take my spot and they won.
Ryan William's last personal SFL Autococker. So more than 15 years ago I was talking to Ryan Williams at Badlandz on the zipper field about how paintball guns and the game was evolving. He was still playing at the highest level on Aftershock with his Autococker though. Specifically, he was still using this very SFL. He told me it was one of the best guns he'd ever owned and that it had yet to EVER break a ball. That blew my mind. He said that there was no other gun (not type of gun, but
any actual gun) that even was tempting at the time.
I told him that when he was ready to sell it to let me know. Then he showed me his name was engraved in it. I told him I was still interested. We both forgot all about the conversation for years and the gun was sold without me ever knowing. This last week, the current owner offered it to me out of the blue and I jumped on it.
This is the workhorse. I use this gun almost every time I play airball. Planet Eclipse CS2 custom anodized by Tyler Fare of Aesthetic Anodizing.
Mechanical guns and specifically Autocockers are some of the most fun guns on the planet to shoot. I was mainly a 'Mag guy back in the day, but I often owned 'Cockers too. My first Evolution was back in 1995 I think and Inception guns are easily my favorite Autocockers.
Bea Youngs all black vert feed DJ Bee Evolution
I don't even think Bea owns one of these anymore.
Inception Predator Autococker #11 - This gun instantly became my go to paintball marker for any kind of scenario, woodsball, rec-ball or fun paintball event. It is everything Inception promised and so much more.
I believe this is the only factory Ripper Minicocker ever made. I was asking Simon online if he was going to make more Minicockers. When my Inception Ripper arrived, I found out to my genuine surprise that it was cut down to Minicocker length! I was stunned, but it was so cool I couldn't swap it for a full size.
Twister Autococker from Boston Paintball Supply
Team Rage right feed Evolution. Half the team got right feeds in camo and half got black vert feeds in 1999 after they had issues with their Shockers. They originally got Shockers but had too many issues and traded up for Evolutions.
Right feed Evolution - I owned two of these at different times while in college, but I always sold them to pay for the next tournament or to, you know, eat. So when I started collecting mechanical guns again a decade ago, this was one of my first scores. I bought it off Ebay and it turned out I purchased it from an old team mate.
