emag or shocker?

[matt-o]

im trying to decide between an emag or one of the new shockers without vision

what im thinking is that the shocker is 700 an emag is quite a bit more the shocker is hella light and small, but the emag is also small accuracy is about equal on both, people say that both are top of the line guns, ive shot both and the emag was faster, so the bottom line is i cant decide, i know i wont be dissapointed either way. also because of dynasty signing with smart parts i think that there are gonna be upgrade parts out to fix the air efficiency problem with the shocker, and ive heard that otb is designing a 90* frame for the shocker so if you know anything about any upcoming upgrades please tell me.

please respond without bias to smart parts, i know im on automags .org but i want a opinion based on facts and not opinions or rumors

thanks

I think if I had the choice I would take the shocker. But nothing wrong with the emag.

Ill throw this is out for you, but if you plan on selling it soon get the shocker. The resale will be high because everyone will want one once they see Dynasty sporting them.

I would get the shocker. I like e-mags, but the shocker just felt smaller and more comfortbale to me.

Id get the Emag, I cant stand how the new Shockers feel

I'd go with the e-mag, The new shocker I got to handle seemed to be lacking in quality control. didn't work right out of the box and just seemed to be much lower quality workmanship than the e-mag. I'm sure properly tuned the shocker shoots nice, I just know I wouldn't be happy with it. Have fun with whatever you choose though!

emag. The shocker i have seen has a taste for paint, and IMO, the ability to chop is as good as the deed itself.

e-mag has level 10

new shockers dont come with lpr's yet, so your stuck with the bolt force, while it is low, it can still chop...



its up to you, both are pretty innefficient, but the shocker is worse than thew e-mag


have you looked into a speed? their new low price is out now, and they are rockin

[matt-o]

i Agree with that, My team mate has one and it is sick.

but emag or shocker? Emag all the way i cant stand having a gun that every where i look there is another.

ive only seen one other shocker and i play in a place totaly filled with high end guns, plus i plan on getting a vert frame as soon as someone makes one for the shocker and that would be hella awesome

E-Mag... because they are the shizniz. Nothing against the Shocker, great guns, but my thumbs up goes to the E-Mag.

[matt-o]

thats exactly the type of reason i dont want, could you back that up with some reasons or statistics?

[FragTek]

LoL... Weight = Reliability. The E-Mag is fast, looks better, more customizable, and all around sick. My point is this....

= way tighter than any Shocker.

[matt-o]

yeah but that also = a butt load of cash! im guessing 1000+ but the shocker im talking about (no vis. or air)is 700. but i do agree that the emag is more reliable, however the reason isnt the weight its the manual override switch

before you jump on the '03 schlocker bandwagon talk to people who own them...or used to! some of the guys that play at my field have 2 at their store they use as team backup guns. they are always down. there are many maintenance issues that you wont know about till you buy it. like greasing the bolt every case of paint, and o-rings you have to change every other couple weeks. add to that that sp has pulled a sp and not even completed the marker before they started selling it...ie eyes arent on some of them, no lpr yet, bolt kits will be coming soon, and maintenance issues that are always being added to the list of things you have to do to keep it running...etc etc etc. think about all the $ your going to have to shell out upping it to get it to the current standard. yeah the shocker has the potential to be great...like the impulse finally was before they shelved it for the shocker. compare all the future ups your going to have to add in the price before you buy. if you go with the e-mag you will want to ad a ule body and your done!!!
