The Shocker SFT is the sport of paintball's first marriage of technologies. The Shocker SFT provides the high rate of fire and simplicity of design found in most open bolt markers yet has the incredible accuracy and razor flat trajectory heralded in closed bolt markers. With rates of fire far capable of surpassing 20 balls per second, the SFT is more than able to excel in any environment without ever letting its user feel outgunned. Its weight and size make it the smallest and lightest tournament dominance package made. Already a proven winner by the Philadelphia Americans, this marker is appearing in the hands of more and more top level teams every day.

The Smart Parts Shocker SFT is older, so while it may be available used and in a few cases new, it is not commonly available anymore.

The shocker sft is the best smart parts gun.The speed is 21bps.Also this gun is accurate. The only thing i would recomend is that you get aa supercharge bolt cuase this gun is a air hog.iIt is much better than the ion or ego eteck.I almost forgot this gun is very cheep for how good it is.

It is a good marker to back that up most pro teams such as dynasty,nauty dogs, and evil all use shockers.But if you are looking for a better gun i would get a ego 07.It cost 1250 dollars but is defintly worth it my brother has that gun.but if you cant afford that get a shocker!

Review:
When i got my first Shocker i liked it. I quit for a while, and when i came back, i traded it for Brice Rhodes's naughty dogs intimidator(brice used to play for Infamous with Chris Lasoya). My team decided the team gus was going to be a shoker. When i bought my second one, the nxt came out a month later. I waited a while and got the nxt.
Conclusion:
If you can find one for $500 or less buy one. If you have more to spend, then buy an NXT.
I love my shocker! I have 1 problem tho my shocker is broken right now an my local store wouldnt fix it cuz there g*y so i called smart parts an there taking care of it rigth now an i cant wait tell i get it back. The problem im having with it right now is its acticting like there isnt enough pressure 2 shoot the ball at first i thought it was the balls were just gettin stuck cuz of the bore size so then I bought a stiffi an matched the bore size. But still balls werent firing amd gettin stuck in the barrel so then i took it to my local store an they said they couldnt fix it. I tryed changing the fps an it ddnt work.tor so now i sent it away 2 smart parts an cant wait 4 it 2 come back!!
Conclusion:
I would definatly buy this gun. Im giving it a 8 because its broken but once smart parts gives me my new gun i will change it 2 a 10!!!! If ne 1 kno's y it was doin this pleaz comment!!

Maintenance
Review:
this gun needs lots of maintenance, wat would u expect from a spool valve, but when this thing is working all i can say is HOLY CRAP its fast accurate and its a killing machine. it buy it again for sure, its well worth the money, most ppl are droping their SFT's for NXT's so u can get them for cheap now. watch the detents cause u can shoot them out if u dry fire them, but u can fix that by getting hybrids or kilas. i get about a hopper and 3-4 pods off my 48/3000.(dwell is at default on my tadao board which is 14) (ABS is default as well which is 5)

Review:
Basicly, the shocker is a very small, light, downright sexy gun. Its very accurate, and quite fast. Its ok out of the box, i recommend buying the HE bolt as soon as possible, since the gun gets horrible efficiency out of the box. I was getting 400 off my old PMI 48/3000. After a bolt kit (SP HE bolt), i was getting a little over 1700 with my 68/4500. 540 with that god awful PMI. Pretty good, operating at 170 PSI with dwell @ 32 chirps (8 ms). Still not as efficient as some other guns out there, but thats nothing to complain about since theres all day air!! The stock reg is pretty good, the quickest recharge ive ever seen. I cant report spike range yet, cause i was using the stock barrel, so my paint to bore match wasnt the greatest. All it really needs is a good bolt, and a feedneck, which i really wish would have been stock, but the companies have to make money some how. I absolutely love this gun!! Always wanted one, and will use it over any other gun given the opportunity, but thats just me. The gun works well for me, it may not for others. ITS ALL PERSONAL PREFERENCE. The only problem ive ever had with it was user error, my uncle hooked me up to a scuba, and we gave it way too much pressure, and warped the spool in the noid. HAHAHA, but that was user error. Dont let it discrimage you from buying this gun, it is an amazing gun. And as far as all those people who complain about shockers being made of weak material, thats also user error. Who says work on yur gun using a freaken guerrilla grip and go over torque yur threads???? Mine was once completely black, and a buddy of mine sanded it down to the metal, so its now silver and black. The metal is pretty tough, as i havnt had any problems with the body what so ever...
Conclusion:
I strongly recommend this gun, but keep in mind, you WILL need some sort of aftermarket bolt. I recommend the HE by smart parts, since they wont touch it if it has internals that arent their own. Im giving it a 10 because its my most favorite gun, but really it should be about a 9 since you have to buy a bolt. If your going to use a halo or other hopper with a thick feedneck, get a clamping feedneck like a function feed neck or a q-lock. An egg fits great on it, and will keep up with it. Remember...... user preference.

Review:
I have used a sft shocker from the moment they where released and have always loved them. The first was a Black 03 that my team captin got for his "daughter" to play with, I used it every pratice, every Tournement, and just for kick's too. He sold it after awhile and I used a buddy's Blue 05 till I purchased my own at the start of 06! They are a good looking marker with a solid body and a host of upgrades already out there. With the release of the 07 NXT Shockers the 03 Shockers are being put out to graze. The 07 is almost the same Marker and most of the parts for the 03-06 will go into a 07. The best thing about the 07 NXT is that there are a ton of 03-06 Shocker's with ton's of upgrade's on them already for Sale!
Conclusion:
As I said above there are a ton of 03-06 Shocker's with ton's of upgrade's on them already for Sale!

Weaknesses:
Gas hog (w/o HE Bolt)
Stock trigger
Nerve Board
Review:
Overall, I love my Shocker. It is very light which is perfect for a person like me because I need something light because I play front. Another great thing is that it is fast as hell. It is as fast, if not faster than my teammates old 06 maniac ego (he traded it for an upped dynasty shocker). It is also very sexy. I have a Black with blue parts shocker and this thing looks absolutely amazing. I recommend something like a new board because I just don't like nerve boards. I recommend a Virtue Board. You should also get a new feedneck. I personally don'd like drop forwards, so I got a CP on/off. WOW, It is a huge gas hog without the HE bolt. If you get an HE bolt, you will be much happier. I also love my CP Trigger and i also recommend that to all you that don't like the stock trigger.
Conclusion:
Get this gun if you need something light, fast, and sexy because this is all you need to go and own anyone.

Review:
This gun is the perfect gun for the novist tournament player like me and my fellow teammates! It's EXTREMELY accurate, it's small and comfortable, it's light, it's easy to adjust, it costed me only $540, and its most of all SEXY!!!
Although there are some things to change about the gun... like the fact that the stock feed neck doesn't fit a Halo B hopper or an Eggy without sanding them down.
It also doesn't work well in the cold. For instance, I took my gun to the local speedball field, it was a typical 31 degree winter day and it seemed that the gun wasn't working at all! It shot fine in the chrono area, but once it was exposed to the cold a bit too long, it wouldn't work at all. I tried to work with it by reading the "impossible to understand" manual, but that did me no good! So I took it into the field shop and the people said that it was the cold that was messing up the board causing the gun to just not work. That was the only main flaw with the gun since I've had it. But also the air efficiency, it isn't too much of a problem but you should expect a little better. I started off the day with a full tank of 4500psi and towards the end of the second round, it was down to 2900psi.
But luckily air was free there!
THERES MORE TO BRAG ABOUT WITH THE GUN THAN TO COMPLAIN ABOUT!!!!!
Weight- 1 pound, 14 ounces. (gun alone)
4 pounds 9 ounces (gun/barrel/tank/Hopper together)
Speed- 20+++ balls per second
Cost- (on a good day) $500-$600
Conclusion:
I think this gun deserves a 10 out of 10 because it's everything I expected out of this gun and I expected a lot of stuff!! I use to want the Nerve more but I'm glad I didn't get it for that the Shocker is 6258973429852176159854287612 X's better! Although the body seemed to have a longer weaknesses list, it really wasn't because I had to tell some stories in that paragraph!
I ENCOURAGE YOU TO GET THIS SEXY, SEXY GUN FOR THAT IT'S PERFECT FOR TOURNAMENT PLAYERS LIKE YOU!!! BUT ACT NOW BECAUSE YOU WON'T FIND ONE THAT EASY!!!! (and they're not manufactured anymore)
