I guess that depends on whether you looking for range and accuracy (cocker) or high ROF and accuracy (electro). Decisions, decisions.

Take a chile pill and do this, got too the reviews and check them out on every gun your thinking on getting. Same with the air systems. Go too more reviews on diffrent sites.Then see if someone will let you shoot there guns if they got the one's you want.If you ask them what they think of coarse they got the best marker out there,So talk to one that use too own the kind of gun and ask why they don't like them any more etc.Now that i made it even harder for you too pick a gun happy hunting

also keep in mind what you have to spend a force five is nice but is it worth the timing headaches I dunno I want to was looking into electro guns and if i had to decide right now I would go shocker why? tribal have a bad rap maybe the got off to a bad start do I want to be any companies guinea pig you bet yur arse I don't. Intimmy nice also 1100 for that I'll get an angel thanks.Bushy nice but sloppy trigger
did a better job of streamlining than a shoe box shocker.
A shocker nice trigger double solenoid low pressure closed bolt firing like a cocker and the nicest stock barrel around!

yea. i guess i have to narrow my search down. do i want an electro or cocker. i've tried da shockers trigger...its a lot longer than an angels...but i still like it. hmm...da shocker 4x4 is only semi right? why does it cost so much?!?!!!!!! arg...do they still come out with shocker s/f? also....which needs more maintanence...shocker or cocker? i know shockers are more faster than cockers (imo)but then cockers are so awesome..and so unique...unlike any other gun. i especially love that back block and how it sounds when it fires. also the performances of each gun is differnt. basically my choices are a shocker or cocker. da decision between the "ockers"

hm.....but da shocker is kinda big....i think da shocker looks tyte..better than a defiant or bushy at least. but its huge! especially with an 88ci 4500 tank. but then it can also run co2 well. and also da famous All americans have had great success with shockers. but so did other teams dat only use cockers. and da cocker's trigger is so frickin awesome.

You make it sound like timing is a hard thing or something that takes a long time. Basic timing only takes 5 minutes or less.

"Nice Double Solenoid"??? Double solenoid is probably the shockers crappiest feature. Kills your batteries, and there's no need for it

You don't need any of those things if you upgrade your back block.
There is really no parts that if you upgrade it you need other parts. Certain parts are good to get together, but never necisary.
What I love about the cocker:
The feel
The trigger (I love the sliding trigger)
Consistancy (best consistancy of any stock gun on the market)
Performance
How easy it is to maintain
Upgradibility
I also love how my gun looks like no other, it is my creation, not some guy in a factories.
What I do not like:
How much I have paid
It still does not have the ROF of electro's

you may also want to consider waht type of player are you. If you play front, you want a small gun w/ a high ROF. If you play back you want accuracy, distance, consistance, and maybe a high ROF. You may also wish to consider what games do you play. If you play tournies, you are going to need more barrels and therefore more money. I like both shocker and cocker, but you have to make your mind up, am i going to sit in the back and "sprey and prey" w/ a shocker? or am i going to have the 1 shot 1 kill consistancey of the cocker? That is were i would make up my desicion.
