I picked up a similar eblade setup (It was actually nicer internally) with a stock 2k2 body for $360. I love shocktech stuff, but your paying for a nicer body and that's all.

If I were you I would go for something non-autococker.

yeah PINK floyd ROCKS my socks.


i have plenty of non cocker guns

X-MAG
3-angels
and my Eclipse (ok so thats a cocker).

i actually like the ebladed cockers ofa alot of spool feeling guns ( matrix, DM4/5...shockers).
to me it just feels a little better, thats why i like angels and mags, because there is still some connection when you are shooting your gun.


just was wondering if it was worht the money

I purchased a similar setup last month. Here's mine:

Black dust Tremor Series body
Black dust ST front and back blocks
Stainless ST front block screw
Chrome E1
Chrome E-way
Chrome QEVs
Chrome ST ram
Chrome ST FGP LPR
Gloss black ST HPR
Gloss black ST on/off ASA
Gloss black ST mini drop
Black ST rebuildable detent (darn thing is loc-tited; I WANT MY KILA ON THERE!)
Smart Parts gauge under front block
Stainless ST cocking rod
Black Superfly bolt
Black delrin pull pin
Gloss Black 14" DYE UL
Clear HALO B
3A 68/300 tank
DYE Rhino cover
Fill nipple cover

Pretty close, but I received a tank and HALO. I sold the tank and cover for $95. I can easily get $50 for the UL, which I haven't sold yet because I don't know the bore, and I can get another $80+ for the HALO. I paid $690 shipped for mine and can get the overall price down to $465 with no problem. I can also sell some other small parts I already have or don't need, like the drop, ASA, macroline and fittings, cocking rod, etc., so I figure my out-of-pocket cost could be more like $400.

tl;dr
$550 is too much!
