  • Two-Piece Board Design – With less to move and reconfigure, the Shocker AMP is easier than ever to switch between ripping fast electro to top-end mechanical operation.
  • Faster Frame Removal – The distributed electronics driving the Shocker AMP also make maintenance faster, by allowing for faster grip frame removal.
  • Improved efficiency – It’s hard to believe, perfection could be improved upon but the engineering team behind the Shocker found room to further upgrade its efficiency. The Shocker AMP valve and bolt are the most efficient yet (approximately 20% increase)
  • Twist-Lock Bolt – One quick twist de-pressurizes the Shocker AMP and unlocks its bolt and fire chamber to slide out for quick maintenance in the pits – completely tool free access to both the bolt and valve in one move.
  • Ultra-gentle bolt – Efficiency improvements have lowered the Shocker AMP’s operating pressure from 160psi all the way down to 110psi. Whether on its own in mechanical mode, or combined with the VisionTM anti-chop system as an electro, the Shocker AMP is more gentle on paint than ever before to make sure it breaks on target and not in the breech.

Overall the changes to the AMP are great, the gun feels better in hand and I prefer the shot of the new bolt system. For my money though the Planet Eclipse 170R is still the maker that I would pick, they are nearly the same price, but I prefer the feel of the 170R over the AMP a bit more. The AMP is a great buy though and would be a perfect fit for most paintball players.
