IR3 OR Oraacle E-class

[WARPED1]

I voted IR3, but only because you didn't put "Speed" up there.
Cockers are not meant to cycle that fast, it's not even a semi auto gun. It's an automated pump gun.

i have never liked cockers. from the first time i ever saw one and my old team nicknamed them autoclunkers. im sure bud orr is a good man and has done wonders for the sport, i just cant stand his guns.

Binggo! i like my friends cocker, and e-bladed dark cocker, but it just needs to much tinkering. cockers ARE pump guns, they just pump themselves now. the large mass of moving metal has a tendancy to rattle themselves loose and out of time. and all of the e-bladed cockers i have seen, have all seemed to have a chopping problem. maybee this has been fixed, as i have yet to actually shoot a e-class orracle, only cockers with the e-blade added after the fact. i say just go with the ir3, or go out and get a speed.

In all fairness , and I am a huge cocker fan...
One of the fellows I play ball with owns both an Oracle and an Angel.The Oracle is the marker he plays with first and the Angel as a backup.But as far as I can see he has about equal amount of problems out of both.The Oracle gets played with in wet conditions a lot and it gets to the electronics somehow.And the Angel just has this wierd velocity problem all the time.
The e-class cockers are really super sweet when they are tuned in and timed right.The moving back block is really stunning at the speed they are capable of running at , with all of the accuracy and time tested goodness of a cocker....
The Angel is way lighter than a cocker , but I think its a little bigger.They are sweet too , you can feel it when you opick one up much less when you play with one.

Go with what you like and quit asking us bunch of jealous people...lol

go with the one that you can switch to manual mode if the electronics go down...
ooops
sorry


(i know i know it's impossible to get your hands on an xmag)

Ask your self these two questions:

What position do I play? -

if you play front, you might have a hard time playing that position with a cocker, or at least i did. the back block constantly flying towards my face had me watching the back of the gun more than the game.

Do I like maintinence?

I borrowed my friends cocker for a few weeks when my mag was at Airgun, and it had so many problems, the guys at the front office were like "What did you do to this thing??" After that, i dont trust cockers.

I think your position on the field should play a major role in yoru future gun decision. You will need something fast, and both can provide that, but if you really dont care about positioning or maintinence, go with what looks cooler I guess. Personally, the IR3 would be my choice. Why not an E-Mag of sorts? And it doesnt have to be an XMag.
