Empire 2 with limeted run anno (horrible photo of me, but the only good one of the gun I have)

SFT Shocker

Empire 1 (sold to PCF then to Skillet, I'm just stealing his picture)

Dragon

My two NXTs

Of all the guns I've owned, my NXTs have shot the best. No question.

Not pictured are my G7, 2k2 timmy, mini, and phantom.

Nice guns. I like the olive(?) NXT.

Why so many guns in one year?

I'm on numero 4 though...

PM6, PMR, PM7, DM6



I like your dragon. The 2k2 would probably be my favorite if it was pictured

Empire 2s have to be one of the best looking guns ever.

Gatyr, call up my GF and tell her to quit whining about me having 4 markers now. She thinks that it is, "A lot" for one person to have. That's nothing compared to the 11 you've been through this year.

God I hate shockers, with a fierce and fiery passion. Started with SFT, rolled into the NXT line.

But nice Timmy collection.

They've shot SO much better than any of the 4 intimidators I've owned. I never played with the SFT, but the NXTs have shot better than anything I've ever owned.

Hardly. Not at all in fact. I just get good deals.

Like the shocker. Bought it, a crossfire 45/45, and a halo for $325. Sold the shocker for $350, kept the halo and tank.

Bought a G7 for $200, traded it for an empire 1 and 2k2, sold the empire 1 to PCF for $400, took the 05 parts off the 2k2 and put it on the dragon I bought stock for $250, sold the 2k2 for $150 to a friend.

Traded the dragon for a mini and phantom plus $100. Sold the mini for $300, sold the phantom for $120.

Bought a brand new olive NXT for $400 from a friend. Traded my tank and halo (I got from the SFT shocker deal) and $100 for a broken NXT, which I had fixed for $40.

I wasn't really actively looking for deals, I just took them as I saw them.

Well, can't really compare an 07 marker to markers dating, at the latest, 2005 (?). But my beef with Shockers really just came from SP. SFT is a complete bs marker. I shot a few and all had a sloppy trigger feel, and lacked in efficiency. I really couldn't see how SP advertised it as a high-end. The only way they kept up with the competition was in the size and speed category. They were smaller than most markers (aside from AGD) and had a decent enough board. But they chopped like hell because they used "vision" instead of BB. NXT fixed all those problems, but not enough to beat the current high-end competition. Hell, with the introduction of the Mini and such, I'm surprised they haven't been dropped into the mid-end category.

SFT was decent. Didn't chop too much if you kept it clean.

Eyes had a tendency to mess up anyway.

I stood by my shockers until I started shooting Matrices.

What? The only real differences between guns over $600 is milling, operation style, and ease of maintenance. As long as the owner know how to maintain the gun, then the difference in performance is negligible.

Then there's the out-of-the-box factor and efficiency aswell. Like I said, the NXT corrected many of the SFT flaws. But they still were not as efficient as current spool markers such as the DM7 and Q7. More so, they still hold some minor flaws such as they still didn't change the threads over to A/C, nor slap on a Q-lock feedneck to the consumer some bucks.

The only real difference with the NXT and SFT is the breakbeam eyes, other than that the gun remains fairly unchanged.
