Pro Stock vs Super Stock vs Ion, vs ...

I have about $600 - $700 to spend on a new gun with all the accesories.
I can't deice which to get since while one is cheap, the more expensive one is better.

Pro stock, I found a 04 one ofr $200 and 05 for $240

Super stock, the lowest I could find was $450:(
 
Or Ion for $200.

(i got the 04 prostock just recently) you have to know a lot in order to keep it running, so dont just expect to gas up and shoot. with this said, wgp times all of their cockers from the factory. if you can handle this, get the 200 dollar 04 prostock and get a new eblade for 250 or a used one for cheaper. then, for the price of a superstock, you will have a better gun than all of the ones you mentioned. last option, save up another hundred bucks and get a Karnivor autococker. i cant tell you much about these however.

I will have to diagree with your comment that it takes a lot to keep a cocker running. All I have ever had to do to my 03 cocker is just clean it and run some lube through the asa. If you want to upgrade by yourself, then you will need to learn what to do in order to change parts, but right out of the box your cocker will be ready to run. Now if you want something that smokes a cocker right out of the box, then you should look at a Blazer from Palmer Pursuit Shop. You can buy them already made or they will make one custom just for you. They are much lighter than a cocker, they already have the industries best pneumatics in them, so you never need to upgrade, Palmer guns are probably the most reliable guns out there, they have great customer service, and the rof is only limited to your own fingers. You can get them in mechanicle version or with an eblade, here is a link Palmer Blazer that is to their blazer section this next link is to the Palmers owners group POG   feel free to sign on and ask any questions you like. I own 2 Palmer guns myself, a Typhoon (semi) and a Paladin (pump) Here are some pics





Both the guns I own are hand crafted, not massed produced, they were made to order exactly how I wanted them. The Blazer is PPS's only massed produced gun, but it is still really a custom gun. With a PPS gun all you have to do is clean it and oil it after you use it.
