first things forst mate try each of the guns you wish to get, and see which one you feel comfortable with and which one suits your style.

well i hear that timmy's are good, i personaly love my E-Orracle and is great, and the 04 shocker i havent shot but i that is very fine but as u said reliablity problems.

i'd say timmy-no
E-blade-yes
shocker-yes

Pick up one of the new Alias Timmies and prepare to re-align your allegiance...

id say try em all then decide, im currently shooting an eblade although i would definatly give a timmy a go, ive not tried the new shockers yet tho but i have heard good things there too.

all down to personal taste really

heyhoo

hi all, i heard that shockers tend to be very thirsty guns, but have not heard any probs with reliability, personally i would go with the cocker (eblade or race blade) or the timmy, both incredible guns, for advice on timmys speak to anyone from pheonix, as it is the prefered marker for the team (well sponsorships choice) i use a 2k3 vert feed cocker which i have ebladed, and it frickin flys, only problem being that the trigger in my opinion on this marker can be easily bouncable, and fine tuning is required to prevent it happening.......................well av bored the **** outa ya all now so al shut up at that !

My turn.....

I have had all three.

The Timmy was fast as f###, but didnt feel a solid marker to me.
Replaced it with a Eblade EvoX, and that baby I said I would never sell.......But then tried a 03 Shocker......Sold the Evo, and ended up with two 03 Shockers!!

The Shocker is light, fast and VERY accurate. With the new bolt kit, it should not suffer from the "gas hog" name anymore.

I have fitted an "evolve" bolt kit in mine, and can honestly say, for me, it is the best marker I have used.

I traded one, for a Viking...which is also a fantastic marker, but I can not fire it as fast as the shocker.

Bear in mind this is my own thoughts, and anyone else might be able to fire the same markers, faster or slower......

Try before you buy!!!

Also consider 2nd hand Viking and Angel Fly.

After changing their markers rapidly I decided to boycott WDP. (As if they noticed) But tried the Fly and it rips. Now have 2 and a Joy Fly arriving tomorrow.
