Hey Guys, well i got a 2004 vision shocker, in really good condition. And its really upped to, almost as good as a Dynasty Shocker probably, idk, lol. Well, it has a centerflag 4500psi, 68 cubic inch tank, dye on/off asa with drop, aftermarket trigger (idk which one, but its really good, because i can walk it fast), HE bolt, halo b, and stock board.....and thats all.
What other upgrades should i get for it, so it will be really good?

You suck at editing previous posts.
The easiest way to see if it has eyes or not is to try to fire it without balls. If it has eyes, it won't fire unless the eyes are turned off.

He has a Featherlight Viking, so shut the hell up.
It has the stock board. It doesn't have breakbeam eyes. It's a shocker, I don't like it.

First, that's a red x. Nice job linking.
Second, milled vikings (ie, FL) are lighter and less bulky. IT shouldn't matter that much anyway. Edit- Wow, you're complaining about a non-stock body Viking. Get past puberty and start lifting some weights.
NOT AS GOOD A REG!!!!!?!?! That is a flat out lie. Sidewinders are easily one of the best regs on the market.
Looks uglier? Yeah, it's not as agg as that cheap aluminum tube with bounce beam eyes and FSDO.
Overall a better gun? (translation: I am out of ideas to support my lunacy)

Max flos suck. Yes, Vikings with eyes have BB eyes.
"mines just better than his gun"

Heh, you didn't mention looks. You insinuated that your gun was qualitatively better than his. Which it's not, and never will be.

You are actual comparing a viking to a shocker? BLASTPHOMEY(sp)
whenever you described your "friends viking" it sounded like you read a review of some idiot on the nation and wrote that down.
Shockers are not very good everyone i know who has one hates them they chop like crazy and in my opinion they look like crap unless there a ton ton.
we've all seen shockers here so unless it was super custom 1 off stuff then we won't be impressed.
vikings are so much better than shockers its unbeliveable but you wouldn't know so just cause you have a shocker doesn't give you thr right or knowledge to say all other guns suck.

^^^So true
im sure since im siding against him, he will flame my gun now
And how are you saying its really upped, and almost as good as a dynasty? It has 2 upgrades because drop/on/offs dont really count.
And Id rather have that viking than almost any shocker out there. I really dont see what the big deal is with them
And before you say something about someone elses gun, know what your talking about, it helps

Sounds like you need to research the gun more before you drop money on it. Not knowing what eyes you have or what trigger it comes with, it's just a bad business practice. Hybrid was right, your best upgrade would probably be a new gun. Also, why would you flame other people when you want their opinions. I don't like you.

Okay. First your shocker has bounce beam eyes. That means it is like it has no eyes. Now Vikings are still one of the most efficient markers on the market and because its poppet is way better than the Shocker. Speed, well I've never touched a Viking (I want to so bad) and have not even been able to see one shoot. But as far as Shockers go, the trigger sucks and the stock board makes me laugh. As my friend Mike has said many a time "Shockers are either high-end Low-End markers, or low-end High-End markers". [/sparatic banter]

burned worse than a 98c that's getting annodized...
seriusly, don't flame other people's markers unless you know what you're flaming. just because your marker is more "popular" doesn't mean it's better. if i had a penny for every shocker i've seen break down, i would have enough money to buy one. have fun with your new shocker, being better than everyone else, no matter their experiance level and their marker they shoot. you'll get gogged by a stock class player in no time.
