| I thought the Shocker was supposed to be Smart Parts flagship marker, the top of the line but it seems like they are trying to advertise the Nerve as there new marker to take things over. Has anybody shot both of them and tell me which is better. |

I have shotten both and in my opinion the shocker is the better
marker. I was left unimpressed with the nerve and most people
aren't either. There was all the hype about the nerve and it
ended being an ok/medioker marker. -------------

I prefer the Shocker. I've played with them both, and really, there's
no difference. They preform exactally the same. The Nerve gets about a
pod better air efficency off a 68/4500, but that's with the stock bolt.
Otherwise, they both operate the exact same way. The biggest thing
about the Nerve was it's ramping board, which SP now put in all their
Shockers too, so that's not a special feature anymore. They basically
the same gun, the Shocker's just smaller. Save youself some cash and
get a Shocker and some ups like Dynasty board and new bolt, or get a
Dynasty Shocker for the same price as a Nerve. Not to say the Nerve
isn't a good gun, I just don't see anything special about it to justify
the extra cash over a Shocker, and I must not be alone, because the
Nerve doesn't seem to be a very big hit. ------------- "Yes there are two path you can go back, but in the long run, there's still time to change the road you're on"

Yo Jeep did you ever get your money back from the guy who never gave you the shocker after you paid him on ebay?

I have heard many people say the Nerve was a dissappointment. I have only shot a shocker, and my friend, who has shot both, said he like the shocker alot better. ------------- Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good. |

Speedwise, the Shocker smokes the Borg. They Borg wrecks the Shocker on
air efficency though. One of my friends had a maxed out Shocker, sold
it and got a Borg, and now misses the speed of the Shocker and is
looking to possibly get another one. Borgs are nice, but they're not
king shizz like everyone here makes them out to be.

Shocker...
The Nerve looks cool, but it's really just an Impulse at heart. It's not worth the extra cash, and it can't beat a Shocker. If I were you, I'd look for either a Shocker or a Matrix. They're basically the same thing. -------------
