![]() The regulator for the XLS features a new lighter weight and higher flow regulator piston helping to keep the air coming as fast as possible so you do not have any shoot down when you are holding your lane. The case for the XLS feel good in the hands and is well made, fitting the gun, barrel, parts kit, tools, lube, an extra insert, and your quick start manual. The trigger system in the Shocker XLS is crazy customizable featuring four points of adjustment and all of these adjustment points can be reached with out the having to take apart the gun! All of these adjustment points are backed up by the XLS’s software which keeps trigger bounce out of the equation meaning no penalties for a gun shooting to fast. The bolt ejection button is underneath the back cap and still works like a charm making removing your engine a breeze. The ASA uses the same great knob from the previous iteration meaning it is super easy to turn your air on. The new longer length and subsequent large volume chamber allows the XLS to get down to just 145psi operating pressure keeping this gun incredibly soft on paint. The new longer and lighter bolt for the engine allows a steady shot when running paint in a stream, this is because that lighter weight longer bolt is able to keep the movement spread from the front of the gun to the back significantly reducing the kick or recoil of the Shocker XLS. ![]() The new engine in the XLS is a Biased Spool Valve design made from quality aircraft grade aluminum and anodized with durability in mind making the XLS engine able to stand up to the worst conditions. The XLS is still cocker threaded so if you have another gun like an Axe 2.0 or Planet Eclipse 170R the barrel kit can be used on those guns as well, it is always a great feeling when your gear is interchangeable. This is achieved by the eight-inch control bore keeping the air behind the ball longer allowing the gun to need to use less air to propel the ball the same distance. The first updated feature you will notice just looking at the gun in its case is that the Shocker now comes with the Freak XL Barrel, a 687 insert is included, this new Freak Kit features a longer control bore to give the player a bit more precision and a bit more air efficiency. The Shocker XLS is the new model of the RSX with some great new features. This gun is super lightweight, comfortable in the hands, easy to use, and super sleek. The new RSX features a Biased Spool Valve design, and OLED screen, and comes with the standard Freak Barrel. The new RSX its quite a departure from previous Shocker models. ![]() The Shocker RSX was a resurrection of the Shocker Line from Smart Parts paintball. The light weight and reliable designs of the new Shocker platform will make many players flock to it while carrying that old Shocker name will get many returning players to grab one to relive their glory days it will not be a wonder when you see your local field being overran by Shockers. With the Shocker coming back and at a reasonable price point it will be no surprise to see SP Paintball as one of the most popular gun companies in paintball. Most of the staff from SP Paintball have some connection to Smart Parts in some way and it makes it fun when you are also in on the joke. The company name is a little tongue and cheek though because it is clearly an homage to Smart Parts. Shocker Paintball or SP Paintball is a division of DLX the makers of the Luxe line of high-end paintball guns.
