question about ebay
im looking to buy a nightkast 04 off of ebay.
my question is... do pb guns lose their touch after being used for a period of time? (like even if they are taken great care of?) yes i know this is a noob question,. but im new to pb. dont flame this either. or tell me to strat w/a cheap gun...cuz i aint got money to buy 2 guns....even if one is cheap...but i plan on usign my friends old one before i get my new one. but basically if this gun is used, will it have lost its touch? i plan on buying a dye ultra light 14inch barrel for it anyways...lemme kno what u think.
thanks in advance

well....if a cocker sits for long enough it can become a little untimed. But otherwise, a little lube and oil to the internals where needed and it should run fine.

Sure. Your springs lose their original tension, Autocockers can become un-timed, and other small things around those lines. It depends on how long they were left.

If the shop knows about cockers then yes. make sure you use the edit button. Otherwise alot of people get mad at you.

Get a Ion. You won't regret it.
Although if you want the cocker that bad I guess you can buy it heh.
