I have 1600 bucks and im goin to get either a shocker or a nerve and a whole bunch of other stuff but if i get the shocker after i get everything i need i will only have 100 left for paint and if i get the nerve and everything i need i will have 400left for paint. which should i go with? actually just tell me wuts better about a shocker than a nerve because as far as i can see they are the same and the nerve has a freak. Please keep in mind that either way i will be getting a virtue board so im not really worried about speed as much as how easy is it to pull a trigger on a nerve and how accurate are each?
Thanks
zack

my question, do shocker and ion have the same barrel threads?

[Uziel Gal]

Depends on the type of Shocker.

Classic, closed bolt Shockers have a Shocker specific thread. It's relatively close to an Autococker thread in length and pitch, but not the same (and hence, not interchangeable). Very different to the Impulse thread used on Impulses, Ions and Nerve's.

The stock SFT Shocker uses the same thread as the Classic Shocker.

The newer NXT Shocker, in stock form, DOES use the Impulse thread.

Some Private Label SFT and NXT Shockers have different threads to the stock models, with the Autococker thread being common to a number of the PL Shockers.
