smartparts = the devil
AGD (E Mag) = awesome

... I just read an article by Doc Nickel on how Smartparts is a greedy, evil company with money as their only interest.

Here it is. I encourage everyone to read it.

Your point? How does your post help this thread as to which marker is a better buy.


Honestly if money was not an issue I would be where I am at now with my sfl emag. But If i go back and had to chose an emag or 03 shocker I would take the shocker because its saving me money and I can deal with problems down the line. There will be plenty of efficiency upgrades coming up, it shoots fast, its not as solid as a rock as an emag but I dont think its worth spending that extra money on the emag. My main complaint about the mag is efficiency... it used to be pretty good like 7 years ago... Now there are plenty of markers that you can get for less money that perform just as well and will shoot more paint out of a tank. The shocker will be more efficient in the future and there are no signs of AGD making a new valve design anytime soon to improve efficiency.

precisely, YOUR DONE. unless your the kind of player that loves dumping hundreds of dollars into a never finished upgrade project...and dont get me wrong i did it with my old impulse...it was almost fun adding the next cool part each month...till i added it up and realized i had a $2000 gun that i got $500 for when i sold it, but with an e-mag you dont have to...it works great stock!

Yeah, he has a very good point... I had a LOT of money tied up into both of my Impys... The Cricket Nasty was all ND'd out, for about a total of $1500 or so in ups and I got $750 back out of it, and the Cricketed Toxic had nearly all of the ND components, I put about $1400 into it, and got back $550 on it. I think the Shocker is going to turn out to be the same way, yet I could be wrong, we will never know until the time comes!
