So I am getting ready to sell my E98s. My current gun is going up once I fix the leaks, and the Matrix one is going up once I repair the frames. The proceeds will be put towards a new(er) gun.

Right now, I have my eye set on the PMR. From what I have read/heard it sounds like a sturdy rig. Friend of mine has one that I plan on shooting before I buy. I can pick one up brand new for $350.00.

Instead of the PMR I thought about saving a bit more and just going for a used PM6. Don't know about this though.

One of my friends swears by shockers. Been looking around for a basic vision shocker to pick up. Some people say they are all hype. I don't know what to think.

Another idea was an ecocker. Not sure what is a good price on these. I have always loved autocockers, and this may be a viable option for me.

Any advice you guys can lend me?

I'll tell you what. If I can't get my finances in order within the next few days to figure out whether I can buy a nice RACEgun (blind) for $375. I'll link you to the owner. Definitely worth it. Detrevni would probably pick it up if I didn't and he had more than $100 to spend right now.

I thought that racegun was going to cost you 600+?

Personally, i dont like the shocker.  They have a unique feel to them for me.  Plus 4 of my "friends" i guess you could call them have them, and i dont like any of them.

And, id say, unless you find a great deal on the used PM6, id go with a new gun.  The mag i just got doesnt even have the right bolt, that he "said" he went to a store and had them check.  Even with the wrong bolt, i still got the better deal.

Id say, PMR, but, im not experienced with the PM6 or PMR.

I would go with a PM/DM6. Nice sturdy guns with plenty of options.

Tallen, if the deal doesn't work out for you, I will think about. What I really need to do is go shoot some guns I suppose. PMR looks promising. But I do like the looks of shockers. Maybe even an Intimidator. Anymore more tips/opinions/advice is/are more than welcome.
