They are both outstanding guns. The cocker is a bit more work to shoot well, as you have to consciously pull the trigger full motion every time, but that can be an advantage as many have found in that it allows for more controlled paint consumption and more conscious effort to aim, along with less tendency to hang out too long and get shot out by another player other than the one that you are shooting at for the moment. The balance is different as well, which is of course left up to the individual as to which suits them better. The Angel requires less routine maintenence, however a Cocker is a bit easier for one familiar with its design to totally repair and with fewer tools. Plus, as the ever popular t-shirt points out, a Cocker has no batteries to worry about running out, however it's darn near impossible within most reasonable conditions to play to run out the battery on an Angel, which has a charge status indicator anyway. It's really just a matter of whether you trust electronics and magnets or springs and screws to be the more reliable components of design.
