Why does the Nerve cost more?

[Hairbear89]

Ok, so I was thinking, why the hell is/was the Nerve more expensive than the Shocker? It's heavier, uglier, same speed and bigger than the Shocker, but for some reason when it came out it cost an extra £200 or whatever. Why?

Oh, and no using 'because it's Smart Parts' as a reason

hehe oooh FREAKy (See what I did there eh eh)
'bout bloody time too... Still, I won't be buying one of the bloody things. Oh, thought of another reason I don't like 'em... They make a weird sound when they shoot... Kinda 'tingy'.

Because it is an angel clone it will go alot faster than a shocker, it will need less maintinence and be more reliable.

Also I imagine it costs more to make than the shocker because critical components like the LPR are not left out.

nerve is nothing like an angel, cos angels are sh!t!

but yes nerve has never been as succeful as the shocker simple because its bigger, heavier and "uglier" than the shocker

and of course the price tag

Actually, it is made up of the exact same components working in exactly the same way.

the nerve when 1st released came with lots of extras standard that the shocker didnt, freak barrel, vision, q lock, grips etc hench the price difference.

not bad now with the new volumizer but still not as popular as the ion and shockers

Seeing as both the Shocker and the Nerve have the same board, I don't see how it will shoot any faster.

Go stick a shocker/nerve board in a potato. Do they rock the same?

I may be Cornish, but not everything agricultural lights my candle...

Well, to be honest, I don't see what you're getting at. I guess it's just me thinking that it's a board that control the rate of fire of a gun eh; Silly me. I must learn how a Shocker works eh.

ALso, how many private label Nerve's you seen...? Even Dynasty didn't want the feckin' thing - Even rumours of a Dynasty Ion (not sure if I believe that... But meh)
