nope, not a cocker, they simply don't pack enough firepower stock. There isn't really a whole lot of new guns in that range.
U could get a wrath or a ion and buy some ups for them. U could get a used e-cocker, maybe u could find a 2k2 timmy that low (though i doubt it) perhaps a used and highly upped impulse, another option could be the older matrixs, a halfway upped one would be very close to $500.

Nope, i'm talking about the older matrixs kinda like these 1 of 15 Tequila Matrix
a upped ion would be nice. Feedneck, reg, barrel, asa then start saving for a board.

Yea I would definatly think about the ION. With some good ups they can be great guns, and as bobide mentioned, new boards are in the making, which will make them even better.

the ion is nice but you could save a few hundred and get a proto matrix, shocker, used alias, something along those lines

Nope, a brand new Proto trix is $750 I think. I love those things, if only I had the money for one. But anywho, get an Ion I guess (That slays me saying that). They're a good tourney gun for the money.
