    both of those are really good guns, depending on what upgrades they have is a big part and also which model of the ANS generation x cocker it is, if i were you i would go for the matrix, no bolt, and wicked fast, maybe it's just cause i don't like cockers but either are good, the matrix is just better
    :cry: I had a paintball gun and i knew how to use it :cry:

        i don't hate any of those guns, but i know that if you get a cocker, and you break a part, you are screwed, because there are so many parts. Also the Matrix is ubber fast, and is really easy to clean (except for the little o rings in the bolt) but.... what ever.

        P.S. in my opinion, get the matrix hands down!!!!!

          Get whichever one has eyes. If they both do, definitely get the trix.

                  the efficecny of a trix with a bolt kit (which that one has) is great, i think nearly a case off a 68/45?

                      Ok well if everything is working right on the matrix, as is you should expect about 750 shots off a 68/4000 tank. <--- notice 4000 psi, not 4500

                      Now if you add a Freeflow bolt to the red bolt kit your looking at close to 1850 shots for the tank. That is when your freeflow bolt is set up perfect. Heres a link to the bolt, probably cheaper elsewhere but heres for info http://www.thematrixcenter.com/pc/vi...&idproduct=186

                      Then again if you buy a C4 mod, along with the red bolt kit, and freeflow bolt your looking at 2000+ shots. Heres the c4 mod http://www.thematrixcenter.com/pc/vi...?idproduct=207 Of course if you want the C4 mod and not the freeflow (due to cost or availability) the C4 will add about 200 more shots, getting up to approx 950 out of it.

                      All off the same 68/4000 . Pretty amazing eh? All depends how much you want to spend and how much air efficiency means to you.


                      Sidenote: if your lucky enough to find a Evolve bolt kit, it will put you up over 2000 shots. However since they can no longer sell them in the US it is very hard to find them under 150 bucks nowadays.

                          Save up a little more money and find a used matrix on pbnation.com with eyes and mods on it. A really nice and very efficient trix with eyes will probaly run you about $750, and if you buy that led, you will probably end up spending more than that after you add stuff to the gun. Other than that, go for the trix over the cocker.

                            Go for the Matrix! They rip nice, and if they come with ups, thats 1/2 the battle gone!
