No. Save your money, get an ion or a promaster in the future.

you just got the gun. you dont need to go buy another one. as far as upgrades go. stay away from the rocking trigger, its a waste of your money. the acs bolt would be a good investment. Look into an e-frame for it. find a clamping feedneck like a ccm or ndz. and get a new barrel, and look into getting a reg like a palmers

The only thing i'd do for ur extra is buy a new barrel and then maybe look for a used ESP frame. Then buy a e-hopper.
if ur saving for a new gun, u'd better be saving for a electro-pneumatic gun. Maximize ur money. Instead of stepping up to a barely better gun that works and shoots the same but costs 2x as much, get the gun that uses the high-end systems and can actually hang w/ the big boys in a tourney.
Now, obviously that larger step up takes more money, but what it gives is worth it. So if u find that u really love the sport and want to take that step. Well, save up man b/c pb is one hell of a expensive sport.

I wouldn't suggest the acs bolt. Really I wouldn't suggest an esp frame either unless you can get it dirt cheap cuz they're like $80. Just use it until you feel like your skills have progressed to the point where your equipment is holding you back and then move up to a mid end marker, or a used higher end marker
