I have both, and find I disagree with the above post, I think the Shocker is a Remarkable gun in it`s weight and firepower, but then again , the Lv1 is also a remarkable gun at being so reliable !! putting a Carbon barrel on either of them will make a difference to how you move them, This year there has been a Massive Boom on the Shockers, and that wouldn`t happen if they wern`t that good, as I said, Both are good, have a feel of each in your hands if you can as they do feel different, It`s a choice you have to make, not others for you !! >> Bluey
