My Bad on Glenn, I got him and Craig mixed up. I definitely apologize to Glenn, It's Craig that I didn't like. He may still have been having a bad day, I don't know.

I don't think that $1000 SFL is worth the cash, sure it's pretty, but it doesn't shoot any better than an STO, and worse than a Stock 2k2 vert feed with Eclipse Hinge. Most aftermarket cockers are simply cosmetic improvements. The only ones I've seen that come close to justifying the extra $$ are the KAPP, Evolution and Eclipse, which all have improved internals that are noticably better than stock. All 3 of the above still don't justify the extra $$.
My beef with Palmers, is apart from the Stabilizer, and they're high-end custom guns (Stroker and Typhoon)I don't feel their products are worth the cash. As to the price comparison, upgrading the cocker doesn't cost more than the Blazer. I priced them out, and even with upgraded pneumatics, they're roughly similar prices, and you don't need to upgrade the Pneumatics on a Cocker these days.

I'm not saying the Blazer is a bad gun. It's incredibly well built, it's just doesn't seem to justify the extra cash. If you dig the trigger, and can afford it, buy one.

Chaos, I've never heard of anybody replacing an Angel body... but as for what you said, I heard the same thing about CalJam'01. And pretty much a lot of other major tournies, too. WDP - there, pimping products. ICD - there, fixing products. Plus, everyone I know who's owned both Angel and Bushy prefer their stock Angels to their upgraded Bushys hands down.

As for the Blazer v. Cocker, haven't yet shot a Blazer, same for the Sovereign, but I hear that they're BOTH nice guns. Hmm, hopefully will get a chance soon.

I just finished pricing it out and I think I am going to have another Typhocker built. Based on a conservatively milled vert feed body and a Doc Nickel one piece grip frame. I figure it should cost about $1100 (That includes custom milling and ano) for an entirely new gun.

I love this gun to death, so I just now need to make one that performs just as well, but looks better

Well, I was just on the PPS website, and watched the video where the guy is shooting a Blazer with a warp. That's fast!!!!!!!
