Pezzer, I have some questions for you that you may not have considered.
As you stated that you are limited in mobility and a "back player" is what you would most likely play, have you considered that you may want an electonic trigger frame to increase rate of fire? If the answer is yes, you would like an elecronic trigger frame at some point, then a cocker may not be the most cost effective solution.
Most autocockers are created equal. (dragun's dragun fly being spyder threads) most others are interchangeable. What that means to you, is that most will use the exact same parts. Some have a bad reputation out of the box (Psyco balistics) but I am true believer that most are for the nearly the same.
The autococker trillogy is an entry level marker that can only be upgraded in certain ways. This is a great way to get into a closed bolt marker with out much expense. just be aware that it can not be upgraded with a better 3 way that will help reduce the trigger pull. The WGP Tacticle is cosmetic upgrades with rails and mounting points. that is it. No performance gains just "simulation" oriented. (waiste of money on a budget in my opinion)
As for maintenace, if you are mechanicly inclined then an autococker is not that diffacult to maintain. after a short while you will find yourself "timing" it for preference as opposed to for maintenance. (trigger pull length, fireing point and so on.)
If rec ball is what you want the trillogy may be a good way to save some money and get great perfomance out to the box. If you are wanting to play speedball or try out some different upgrades for the markers, then you may want to step up into a VF series.
If speedball is a more than likely posibillity, then I would recomend an electro pneumatic gun to start off. Cocker and EP's will give you much more performance than your standard blow back for not much more $$ out of your pocket. An autococker will cost alot to get up into the speed range of an EP.
Used is always another option. but buying a used autococker can be a very scarry process. Some sell because they are ready to try something else. Others sell because they have broken something and don't know how to fix it.
I know I have thrown alot of info at you, so I will stop now and let you drive the conversation by asking some more specific questions.
I will leave you with this. I love autocockers, they are my favorite gun to shoot, workon, and just look at. I shoot an impulse. No moving external parts. Faster rate of fire for less $$ out of pocket. and no back block slapping my mask. I can play tighter in my bunker and live longer. I am not saying you should buy an impulse or angel or ION, I am saying that you are on the right track by doing you reasearch. I am just trying to open more doors for you to explore.
