    they just don't look like cockers. at all. impulse, box shocker, even intimidator maybe ... but not a cocker.
    I believe that this is to what he is referencing, and at a glance and on the opposing team, I guess I can sort of understand the confusion? If i saw it before the game started, there would definitely be no confusing it, but if it was mid game, then maybe.

      Simply, yes...

      Opposing starting boxes, stacked tube looking marker, surprised as heck when he started shooting at me . Not a point worth debating especially concerning the thread topic, but the confusion should be understandable

        Until the SFT shocker came along I was a cocker/mag shooter only. I got a DarkShocker in 05 and it's accuracy, long ball, and very mag like feel in hand, have kept it in action for 10 years, even over many other guns that have passed through. I still have a OLED Luxe, G6R, E-blade, pump'd Lotus and a Threshold, AND a newly recleaned automag. But the shocker feels best in hand, especially in the quick snap, like I said, to me very mag-like which was my usual marker before.
        I like the new RSX shocker, but I'm not buying one. The one I shot was light, snappy shot, very accurate, and easy to bring onto target.

          I subsequently explained front pneumatics and a reciprocating back block to a blank stare.
          LMAO.... You can tell he is a newer player.


          So far I've not used anything that I like as much or more than mag or cockers. But honestly. Anymore. As much as I love my Y grip. I doubt I find anything else.

            Nummech drop forwards are now available for The Mini GS and Axe Pro. I'll get to see if the Axe Pro is a keeper.

            I've always wanted to try a Y-Grip. Do you run a drop forward with it?

              Offset drop forward. I've actually got 2 Ys. But only one is currently on an active gun. Perfect balance between the z and a vert frame to me.

                Funny, I'm actually in the process of cutting my collection down to just a couple 'mags and a couple 'cockers, but I have owned a great big pile of markers over the years, so there are some other things I like to shoot as well, namely:

                These three are pretty much cheating answers since they're so closely related to 'mags and 'cockers:
                • Sniper and Sniper-based pumps
                • PPS Blazer
                • ICD Desert Fox


                Other:
                • Nelson pumps (Phantom, Carters, etc.)


                That's it, for the most part. I'm really not much for electros. Rainmakers are enjoyable for the silliness factor, and I liked Angel LEDs/LCDs and Vikings and Excals, but I'm not in a hurry to pick up another e-gun at the moment. Just don't have a need for one.

                  Mine is a Palmer's Hurricane. It's technically not an AGD/Cocker product but a mold of the two together.

                    What part of a Hurricane is like an AGD marker exactly?

                        Asking questions makes you a dick now? There is nothing mechanically in common between the two, hence my question; it wasn't meant maliciously.

                          Your question was leading so that by my response you could provide this very feedback about them having nothing mechanically in common, of which I'm well aware.

                          You were looking for a response that you could jump on for being wrong; that makes the question a dick question.

                            I was trying to get clarification as to what you meant because I didn't see any similarity because of the mechanical differences. Having never owned or shot a Hurricane, maybe there's something to them that I'm not aware of. It was a legitimate question and the fact that you saw it as an attack is odd to me.

                            If I wanted to be a dick, I would have come out and said "you're an idiot, those have nothing in common" or something to that effect. I assumed that you knew that they weren't mechanically the same, that wasn't the point of my question, but rather what caused my question. I just wanted to know what similarities, if any, there were between a Hurricane and a Mag. I apologize for being curious I guess, won't let it happen again.

                              That wouldn't have made you a dick; that would make you ignorant for implying that similarities could only exist (or not exist) between a marker's mechanics.

                              I think we're good now. Simple misunderstanding.
