I wouldn't choose neither of those. I would go for a new Angel or Timmy. And out of these two Timmy is my favorite, especially Z-timmy with WAS board installed or the new Alias.

It would depend upon why you feel you do not suit the Angel.

Do you mean that you do not feel as comfortable shooting that over other types of markers? If the 'feel' of a marker is what is most important then only you can truthfully say what is right for you. If so, then the best answer will be to try prospective replacements, whether it be later model Angels, E-cockers, Timmies, whatever. Just about every design available can be found at most tournies & many walk-ons.

If instead you feel that you are having problems with the technical side of your Angel LED, perhaps being uncomfortable maintaining what is now a relatively old marker, then perhaps a later model Angel might be ideal, especially the Speed with its high 'bang-for-the-buck' & far simpler maintenance. You keep the same Angel feel, with improvements, and its easier to look after. Of course, other designs might suit you better, but this is also an individual decision - I never really found looking after Angels a problem, but with Mags I just about know how to attach a barrel - unfortunately most owners will be unlikely to let you pull their marker apart when you ask to try them. :)

Listen to the advice you've already gotten, try out a few new markers, and if you feel better using them, then make the switch. I can highly recommend the Speed and A4; light, tight, and fast. But decide for yourself, see what suits you.

If price is your thing, then you can't rip faster than a second hand Impy (with Vision and I-frame).

Top end Impies, well looked after, can come with a multitude of goodies (LPRs. Freak Barrels, ACE etc), and have the supposed Gremlins (such as first shot drop off sorted), for a fraction of the cost of Inferior alternatives. Sure Standard Impies require some work to compete with other Gats but once tricked, can out perform almost all others (well the performance on mine was compatible to a Nexus).

Bearing in mind that SP is particularly unloved at the mo, they are the Bargain Gats of the decade. Look to pay around a monkey for Adrenalin's or sorted Eclipse examples.

On the downside they a tad heavy, but with that much mowing ability, who cares.

Of course you need to try as many out as possible, but forego bling for cost and your onto a winner. Either that or try a Viking, pretty much similar to a tricked Impy, but the goodies come as standard.

Mind you if t's an Eclipse LED you've got, keep it!!!
