i fancy an intimidator but currently own an angel.
i have had a few problems with the angel from new, granted wdp did sort it for me (in a hurry) at CC, but i have been somewhat disillusioned.

now looking at a lasoya timmy and am wondering whether or not to take the jump. timmy is getting good write ups and all of that but i am still unsure.

point is i definitely want to change the speed ( or maybe keep but as a backup) and wnat the opinions of all you experts out there!!!

you can email, pm or post i don't mind, in fact i appreciate every comment good or bad.

the build quality of an angel is far superior to that of timmy imho. One of the lads on my team sold his lasoya and got a euro speed to replace it and has not looked back since. But as ever shoot both, talk to people who own either, look at the internals of both if possible, and make a decision based on that.
I think you will find that the angel is a better gun now that the anti-chop technology has caught up (eyes rather than cops).

The best thing you can do is get one in your hands and try it.

I always recommend trying a gun before buying.

At the top end a lot of what makes a gun work, or not work, for you is all about feel and personal preference.

Try to borrow one and play a game with it. :)

i would love to do that but living in northern ireland there are 2 teams and they both shoot angels so it is a bit harder to get my hands on one

Lol, yes I do, but not sure that matters.

In all honesty I hadn't noticed your location. Say Hi to Mark and John and all the Escarmouche guys for me.

I have to say that living in Ireland and with all the guys there using Angels it would be very sensible for you to have one also.

It makes it easier if you need parts or advice etc.

In your position I would go for an 05 Speed.

But if you like to go against the grain, the timmy is a very well accepted gun.

only joking. will say hi to the escarmouche guys for you, but tbh they are the rival team!!!!! only joking guys!

i just fancied the timmy due to the fact that my ( and two team mates) experience with angels and wdp has not been altogether rosy................

don't want a shocker as i think sp are going to end up in trouble, cockers are to complex for my simple mind which really only leaves bob's babies.

plus i think they look lovely, and they are good enough for the russian legion!!!

so i am led to believe, but i have to disagree somewhat. don't get me wrong the problem was sorted but somewhat begrudgingly.
