    Well, new guns generally don't have a lot of upgrades when they come out. So I doubt it will be like a Cocker in that aspect.

    My prediction? it will be what the 03 Shocker was supposed to be, and more.

    Powerlyte is a standup awesome company, and they make extremely well performing products. I wouldn't be suprised if this trampels any other gun under $1000.

    Then there's the burning question: Wait for this to come out at the Cup, or bite the bullet and buy a Viking/E-Mag/Angel?

      I wonder if Paul Fernandez frequents these boards?

        What I meant is, will it need numerous upgrades like a cocker, or will it be like a Viking, which has little to no upgrades needed.

        Curious, but what was the 03 Shocker supposed to be?

            'Cockers NEED upgrades? That's news to me. A stock 'cocker with minimal tinkering (sweet-spotting the reg and adjusting the LPR) works incredibly well. The trigger can be made very short using the stock four-way, efficiency out of the box is great, and you can set it up to pinch even with the stock springs and regs.

              I would say thats pushing it.

              But it doesn't matter..People still buy the upgrades anyway.

              LOL, how much does a stock 2000 cocker go for? 100$ ? It is all about the upgrades with cockers and you know it! If it dones't have anything on it, you're not gonna get anything for it.

                Maybe, but I don't see too many stock cockers. All I see is the Merlin Freeflow Super Pow Wow Trick3d Cocker or whatever.

                Cockers=many options to upgrade
                Vikings=doesn't need to

                    WOW....WOW....WOW!!!!

                    Had a chance to chat with Mr. Powerlyte himself and Paul mentioned some preliminary efficiency numbers that were quite impressive. I believe he said that for a 68/4.5K, you can squeeze out around 1500-1600.....WOW!

                    If that is indeed the case, forget about the Shocker or the 'Trix. Though similar in design if you're looking only at the marker externally, Paul wouldn't let the cat out of the bag but apparently there's more than what meets the eye.

                    PF is a no BS kind of guy so I'm definitely looking forward to this new monster that he's created.

                        Why forget the matrix? With the most recent bolt kits, they're more efficienct than the Isis.

                        Not to knock the gun, I still think it will be incredible.

                          Not sure about that. Matrix owners put a lot of hype into the bolt kits. It still isn't considered an efficient gun. This is.

                          I like the feedneck. From some of the pictures from IAO...It looks like the bottom just screws to lock the hopper in place.

                            I am 99.99% sure the reg in the picture is a Centerflag. However I don't see an LPR. Does anyone know if they will be available for this marker? BTW, I think it looks more like the Nerve than Shocker.
