I've been looking in to getting a Rocket Cock for my 98c, and heard that it quiets the gun down quite a bit. I've also heard that it's not true. I see a lot of people on this board have them, so I was hoping to get some feedback from someone that uses one. Thanks in advance.

I have liked both of my Rocket Cocks. I had the original style with the only kinda good plastic, it cracked when I had it overtightened in the cold weather, all my fault. I bought another, the more refined version before the Rocket Cock 2. It is made of a better polymer, definitely heavier and more solid than the first, it does it job extremely well, and is cheap, IMO a fine second or even first upgrade.

As for gun quieting, I don't think it makes a HUGE difference, maybe some but not much. You've got a Tippmann you're pretty much doomed to have a loud marker forever anyway.

If you get one you will not be disappointed.

I was going to buy one, until I found out it was $30...just for a piece of plastic that fits over the cock slot. I hear it's not a bad piece though.

i think there mostly for keeping crude out of your gun not for keeping it quiet and ive heard of people making there own since there so simple

ShadowMonkey

Well, thanks a lot for all of the help, guys... Maybe I'll hold onto my money to put towards something else.

Lol, I might end up just getting one off ebay, since my ONLY local pro shop is VERY expensive.

never buy from local shops.....9/10 they are over priced...look for online shops...they are usually the best

heres a question if you lube ur gun by putting oil down the slot infront of the bolt and the rocket cock covers that area how do u lube ur gun when ur done playing?

i remember once my friend had some paint that smelled and tasted like zebra gum so we ate it, no lie

Flatliner105

um...u take the gun apart...

ur not supposed to oil the gun jsut by simply putting oil in the hole...that wont even oil the hole hammer....u gotta take the hole gun apart..oil the HOLE hammer, oil the front bolt...and the connection linkage

Coenen

Umm, you only need to remove two screws to get the Rocket Cock off and gain access to the cocking slot.

Anywho, you should be stripping the whole gun down after everyday and oiling as Flatliner suggested...don't any of you guys ever read the manual?

yes tippmanns are tanks...but they still need to be cleaned...the only way to do that is to open up the gun

spedhunter88

i didnt kno u had to take apart the whole gun to oil it the guys at my local pro shop told me that all i had to do is to put oil into that one slot thanks for tellin me the truth and yes i did read my manual but i never saw that

Just a quick question:

What type of oil do you use or form to clean your gun, or to get it oiled up?

People i play with use all sorts of random stuff, I have not really looked around for a certain form. What is the best oil out there for a 98c or any other kinda gun?

Coenen

The guys at your proshop are proably going from experience with rental 98C's and although it probably worked for them the best way to keep your marker in top shape is to oil both bolts, the linkage arm, and put a few drops in the ASA(and dry fire).

Go back and reread pages 13 and 14 of your manual for homework.
