    I don't know much about timmies but angels are good, reliable guns. They are easy to maintain too. It really depends on your preference though. Also, how much are you wanting to spend? both of them have lower price (angels - LEDs and Timmies - Classics) and high price (Angel - IR3 and Timmies - Dragons or the new species)

    It all really comes to preference, I like the feel of my angel more than my friends timmy, but thats just me.

      i have a gz timmy and love it. very easy to maintain and works very well. angels are just the same. they are easy to maintain and shoot will too. i would take the timmy over an angel because it runs at a lower pressure and has an eye. angels(excluding the ir3 and speed) run at a higher pressure and doesnt have an eye(you can get one though). to me, it doesnt matter which angel you get, they all shoot the same. same with the timmy. but since you are buying it used, you can find really good deals on angel lcds; ranging from 550-800. ir3 are more expensive; ranging from 800-1500. the timmys are a little more expensive than the lcds; ranging from 650-1200. in the end, it is up to you on which gun you want to shoot.

        Price

        I dont really want to spend more than $800 for just a gun. I might go $900 if its a really good deal.

          you can find a really nice lcd for that price. can find some nice ir3s for that price also. if you look hard enough you can find gz timmys for 650(just found one for that price with a WAS board). you should post a thread at pbnation or here saying you have X amount of money and you want to get an angel or timmy. or something along that line.

            I'm about to get an Angel Speed, but it will be a backup to my E-Mag. Not really a "backup" but as one of the guns i will shoot depending on my mood. If you want a reliable gun... go with an E-Mag. i got mine brand new.. after I tuned my lvl X (just had to go to a shorter spring) my E-mag has not had one problem! I just put paint in it and shoot.

            All my friends shoot Speeds.. they have many issues with them. chopping... going full auto and blending half their hopper, simply not shooting.. really bad drop off..

            Theses are all issues they worked out.. most of them happened when the guns were brand new. but my E-Mag has not had one problem and out of 10 cases I have NEVER chopped a ball.. about 2 breaks mid barrel.

            But, if you want to tweak with the gun a little bit (not like a cocker) then go with the Angel Speed or IR3 or any Angel.. good guns from the tea drinkers

              Well I was kinda sold on timmys because they have the eye. But I was kinda concerned on the lenght of them. If someoen could measure one form end to end wiht barrel on, and list what size barrel they have. Also hows the E-mag compare to them?

                    Timmy-
                    Light
                    Easy to clean and maintain
                    Uses 9v so just pop a new battery in
                    Fast (but the Angel Speed Keeps up easy)
                    IMO it is more reliable than angels
                    Cocker barrels since you already owned a cocker it will make things easier and cheaper.
