This site seems to have some great reviews. Tell me what you think of the Shocker review.

Some questions on my part.

1. Would the same Shocker be more effective in tighter positions with a medium sized(3-5") dropforward and a 10-12" barrel? How does the Shocker's weight and size affect snapshooting, running on the move and general arm stamina(With a 20oz? A 68/45?)

It would be more of a middle man's gun with a big D/f and a shorter barrel but with it's slightly larger size, I don't think it would be an effective front man's gun. It's weight and size don't suggest a whole load of snap shooting, but us shocker people have our own effective methods of accomplishing the same thing. Being the fact that they're tough guns and that their closed bolt, I think running with them is perfectly fine. Need to get read of the idea that you're gun is a art treasure. Shockers are no heavier than most cockers.

2. Do you agree with the performance stated.

I think they didn't have a great paint match, my shockers shoot better than theirs did. I also have a nicer hopper. I think the actual performance (with good paint match), meets or exceeds 99% of guns on the market.

3. Do you agree with the reviewer on gas efficiency, looks, comfort and the stock trigger?

Gas efficiency is better than they state. It's not excellent by any means but you pay a price for LP. Looks, I think SHockers are dead sexy, forget those people who think they're ugly. Hell, they're NO uglier than all those JT guns but I don't hear people making fun of Excellerators or Rebels.

Stock trigger could use some work but whatcha gonna do. You can make a stock gun on SO good. lol
