Well, it's as the title says. Dark vs. Angel. The Angel has the Evolve kit (not pictured) which explains the MAAASSSIIIVVVE volumizers. Those would be the first thing to go if there's a trade...

Vs.

I should mention, I've wanted an Angel since I was a newb. I dunno about this one though...

Does the cocker include the pizza?

On a real note, how do you feel about 90* frames. Angels are great, and those volumizers must go. Holy crap, they look like something Madonna would wear as a bra.

Anyways, I like vert frames.

I would really hate to decide for you. I would recommend the Angel over the cocker, but then again its a dark cocker and you seem to have a thing for cockers.

How much do you like the cocker? If you're willing to trade it, I say go for it. Angel Speeds are awesome guns.

Also, if you were to trade and had any spare cocker stuff...

Uou know my opinion on this matter. Electro-cocker > Angel. WDP makes a good product, but there's better out there for the money/trade value of that dark-e-blade.

Rough choice.  See the problem with most electros, is that in a year, their resale plummets with the new gear that comes out.  The dark is rare though, so it should keep, if not raise, in value over time.

And think, thats already "2 years old" if you look at it, pretty soon, you will be seeing them go for under $300(unless they already are, i havent looked at b/s/t lately) because they arent "AGG" anymore.

I do love the 'cocker. I don't think I'd trade it for less than a G7 (favorite body style). A G7 Fly would be amazing...

Well, if it's just a body you're looking for, I'll trade you my Moldovan
(think russian/romanian and sexy) friend for your Dark. She's about 5'5",
cute as can be, and has an accent that makes you soul shiver with delight.


I'll post pics if I can!

Sorry, but that is not Evolved. It has 50 cal vollies, but that does not mean it's evolved. I know you say it's not pictured, but those hideously rare things have nothing to do with Evolve. 

The one closest to the camera doesn't do anything, either.

Yeah, those aren't volumizers, those are paintball "bayonettes".

It'll be a few days before pics, but I'll try my best! She works at a different
restaurant than me now, but I'm supposed to meet up with her for lunch
soon.

Those volumizers are retarded.

I can certainly believe that he added the volumizers (although the one on the right tube is the only one that actually helps) to help with the Evolve kit, as it's much lower pressure, and having a bit more air can be quite helpful with it.

That said, the gun is ugly as sin.

If your gun has an E2 blade, he should add ~$50, maybe more. If it's an E1 or Zero-B, they're roughly even.
