Well let me start off by saying that I really wouldn't like any SP sucks booo SP blah blah blah stuff like that lol. But I was wondering if I should upgrade to a shocker currently my setup is Automag RT ULE w/ ULE trigger, intelliframe, ULE CF body, dye ultralite barrel, X-valve with lvl 10 just about worn in, and check-it unimount. I am a front player and I am liking my mag but I just shot a shocker and there amazing! But with the hAir trigger coming out in 3-4 months or something like that I don't know what to do. Any help would be great and also are shockers high maintenence?

Keep the mag till you can get the new trigger. Shockers are good, but they are so popular! The mag will be a beast when you can upgrade it! :shooting:

Keep the 'mag!! Last time I heard, Shockers were gas hogs, and they liked burning out their solenoids!!!

If anything shockers have better efficiency then mags...

Keep the mag, for one reason. It has a decent company behind it.

Well I thought you said you wanted to upgrade. But then you mention going to a downgrade of a product. Why would you want to give up a gun that is reliable, easy maintenance, doesn't bounce, doesnt ramp, and has A1 Customer support. (the mag). And buy a chunk of metal, that is unreliable, bounces, ramps and has crappy Customer Service? (shocker). Stick with your mag. :dance:

Well I guess you guys have convinced me to keep my mag I am probably gonna make it into a devilmag even or just wait for the hAir trigger still not quite sure about that. Maybe if the hAir trigger comes out before christmas I'll get it :).

if you want to upgrade, a shocker is not the right path to take. You'll be set with that mag, but if you do want to, id highly recommend a timmy or matrix. Both have many less problems than shockers. If youre serious about buying a new gun, look at all your options.

I know two people with Shockers, both of them have had numerous problems, in one case needing a trip back to SP (messed up 'noid). If you have to have a spool valve gun get a new Matrix for the same price.
