You are a sick person.... I would NEVER get a karinvor. All they are is mass problems. I was at the field one night at there was 2 people with them and they were both having problems.

^^^you guys arent helping at all
hope you have good luck with it, i've worked on one and it really is a mean machine...just because it's an autococker doesnt mean it sucks, quite the contrary from what i have seen.

Yeah, blades do bounce a bit if not set perfectly, but I think you'll do just fine with it. Good luck, and def. come back w/ a Fly.

I think the gold to black DM4 is screwin with my mind! Is that the devils work or somthing!?! Everytime i see it online i stare for a long time and when i went to the shop i chose to hold that instead of the A4 fly that was on the wall.

I too am departing from the Angel line. :sad: I'm going to try out a Viking. I'm actually kinda depressed about it. :sad:
I love it when my teammate brags about his amazing karnivore that has been tuned by Brimstone smoke..... Then he chronoes it and it doesn't shoot more than 3 feet....
I plan on never owning a cocker. Ever.

ah there good markers you just got to know what you're doing ;)

very true...
i do think the karnivor is a little over-hyped, though...being that my gothic outcycled it on a bench test (at IAO, if anybody was watching) with an alluminum bolt, but nonetheless there sexy markers.
i've come to love both my cocker and angel, and really wouldnt trade one for the other...as far as i'm concerned there dead even as far as performance (keeping human limitations in mind), both have next to no kick, and are as fast as i want them to be...so really one isnt better than the other, they just have to be taken care of and properly tuned.

Or like my buddy how he was bragging that he got a 2003 ebalded orracle for like 600 used and then the first time he played with it in like his second game the cocking rod breaks and the back block falls off and he gets bunkered.hard. lol
ha ha I'm still a hate and those guns just are not made for the electro market. To much moving crap to be reliable over the long run. And dont anyone try to chastize me about those as my first Tourney gun was a cocker. Those markers are so finicky and was never meant to be a electro. Its the carburator(cocker) Vs the Full Injection(Angel) stand off now.

My friend (SpeedmarvalizeR) has a cocker. It has an e-blade and shocktech inernals, shocktech superfly and all that jazz. Its a nice gun.... when it isnt broken. Speaking of which, i dont think its really worked yet lol He is selling it and getting an Angel as soon as he can just because he has seen the way my Speed shoots :bigok:

my Shocketech Sfl E-blade cocker was pretty good, i never had too many problems with it, except for bounce. there were games when i didnt have to pull the trigger more than once to send a stream of paint off of the break. the bounce may be suited for some people, but i prefer controlling the gun and when it shoots. so i you want your gun to bounce alot, than definately go for an e-bladed cocker

Karnies (to the best of my knowledge) aren't bad. I've had the chance to use one in several games... the same day I used an Angel 4. Guess which one sold me! I didn't like the trigger on the Karni, but it didn't give me any bounce. Angel was smooth as silk.
yeah, I have seen alot of cockers. They are a great gun. I prefer the angel. But I plan on buying a e-bladed cocker sooner or later. My teammate just bought a e-bladed oracle, he loves it, now his speed is a backup. All prefrence I suppoze.

OHHHHHH NOOOOO, LMAO. Ohh well, happy cleaning, timing, adjusting, velocity adjusting, ram controlling but, I still have my 2K3 Cocker and plan on getting it E-Bladed and using it as a backup. Cockers are very nice if you know how to work on them. Wish you the best of luck and drop a line if you need any help with it!! Be safe and play safe ya'll!!

It's fate dude!...........the WDP gods just saved you alot of heartache.......look back on this day and weep with joy at your good fortune!!!

...well, if it is 'financial difficulties' that is driving you to use your Speed...it is not a choice you wanted...so try to not let your disappointment creep into your game and render the 'fun' not fun...
...if you're really looking to use another marker other than WDP, do it because YOU WANT TO, not because of what gets posted in a forum.
The E-blades are a good marker, and like many have posted, if properly tuned & adjusted, they are reliable, fast and accurate, just like my AngelForce Fly. I have an Orracle that I bladed, and it has never gone down on me once, and I don't have a bounce problem (I used realistic trigger settings). It is fast, looks & sounds like a sewing machine with the pedal to the metal... I'd say almost as fast as my AF-Fly... :)
...listen to your desires, not those of the forums...
