    i cant believe its come down to this.

    after months of scouring every website, manufacturer, reseller, every spec about the gun,upgradeablitlity, weight, efficiency, cool factor, ect. its come down to this (mods please dont believe this because as far as i know a fs works almost the same as a mag)

    RT ULE Custom | ND Freestyle
    Blue Dallara | new drop
    hair trigger when it comes out |
    shocktech gas thru |

            if by superior you mean faster then yes they are....but superior is a strong term..how bout you just say electros are faster and leave it at that.

              ..

              That whole battery dying argument doesnt hold a candle to the electronic supremacy debate, if your playing speed/hyperball then you dont really need to worry about your battery dying mid game, now if your playing a multiple day scenario then I can see your point. Just my $.02 And I would go for the Freestyle all the way.

                        i have a nasty shocker, and i love it. its so light and low profile, fast everything you could want. everyone on this forum hates shockers because they are bias against SP, but in reality its a really good gun for a good price. theyre one of the cheapest high end electros out there (the normal vision one, not the customs like nasty and dark)

                          I love my Shockers. Best gun I've ever shot. The Nerve is a close second(I got to shoot one of the protos last year).

                            i agree with that.
                            you will never have the speed of an angel, timmy, or freestyle; while having the range and acuracy of a mag or autococker.

                              Range = a function of physics. Aside from systems to put backspin on ball (the flatline barrel or the Z-body)you will not gain range. A ball leaving a barrel at 280FPS will go as far from a mag as a cocker, as a shocker, as a blowgun...

                              Accuracy = nice try. Cockers are nice in your hand because they don't jump around (at least the ones I have shot). My Shockers are very smooth in my hand, even in rebound mode where you are reaching a sustained high rate of fire

                              Speed = some of the mechanicals are pretty quick, but you don't have ACE and you are not going to get as quick. My Shocker electronics are covered regardless of reason for failure for 6 months by warranty. Now I did have a body issue with one Shocker I just got, I'll let you know if SP steps up and covers it - though it might be partially my fault as well so how it goes it goes.

                              The advantage of the mechanicals is they are a mechanical device, pretty easy to understand how they work.
