That is the question.

A gentlemen asked to trade his PM5 with hybrid grips, tadao board, bnib cp trigger, freak barrel, cp reg, and a hybrid asa for my 2k5 Dynasty Shocker, orings for said shocker, SL33K lube, freak barrel, and Contract killer grips.

His PM5 needs a new feedneck. My Shocker has a solenoid that has had some DIY work done on it, but it still works fine.

I am waiting on pics of the PM5.

Here is a pic of the shocker.





What do you guys think? I really just wanted to sell the gun and use the cash for college expenses. But now that I think about it, I kind of like this idea of a trade for some odd reason.

Why did I put this here? I meant to put it in "Which Gun is Best."
My sincere apologies gentlemen.

I don't know how much the shocker would go for. I was hoping upwards of $300. Not sure though.

The Shocker would sell for a lot more.  Proto resale is crappy these days.

Because every little rich kid bought them for there starter gun and then got shot and said I don't like this game and flooded the market with cheap dye/proto markers. Personally I would keep the shocker, because I think you could either trade for a nicer proto with it, or make more money off it in the long run.

As much as I hate to say it, keep the shocker. PM5 < Dynasty Shocker. You could probably trade it out for an ego if you looked around.

Never though of that. That would be incredible.

I'll keep the shocker. Thank you all for setting me straight. Pics of the PM5 just for **edited**s and giggles.

Pm5's are huge anyways, you'd regret it.
