SFT Shocker VS Etek 1

Sft shocker with CP reg and Virtue board freak barrel

Etek 1 with Virtue, Zik kit and Cure Bolt

Which would you rather have and why?

Etek 1 simply because I don't like Smart Parts much and it sounds like it would have better resale value

I prefer the shocker. I just like the way a spool shoots, but shockers have higher maintenance. If you want a gun with low maintenance that shoots decent then go with the etek. It is really all up to you and what feels better to you.

Maintenance is not an issue as I can handle most of that. I have an ETEK showing up today but sold my shocker at the end of last year and regret it. It shot grreat, had some bolt stick issues but I fixed that. Other than that it was isanely fast and used a lot of air. As for the ETEK, I hear it is more air efficient

I prefer shockers. They're overall smoother shooters. BUT... You will need to put some money into it. As, is, they have HORRIBLE FSDO .
