think he was talking about average markers with slide frames and average shooters.

fact - a properly tuned autococker with a good feed system can outshoot a standard 12v revvy fairly easily if it has an experienced shooter tapping the trigger.

fact - aforementioned cocker attached to eggolution er Evolution revvy can come damn close to outshooting it if not outshooting it (that would place it somewhere near 17-19bps).

contended fact - a hinge trigger frame with proper tuning and a good shooter can then outshoot the revvy placing its bps somewhere closer to 20 - 22.

bottom line - I dont really care how fast you can tap the trigger. I think volume firepower is nice for suppression and takes skill to learn how to do, but a true measure of a marker is its overall utility. can the marker not only shoot fast - but also get range and consistent groupings. I firmly believe that the combined skills of the player and qualities of the marker work together not just the technology.

to answer the title question
a cocker is easily capable of speeds in excess of 13bps up to 20+ with certain custom configs. It takes time and practice to make it purr, but the same is true of all markers (even Angel shooters will agree that shooting fast is a skill not a quality)
