Okay, so I just bought a SS1 from someone... I would like to know which gun is better, has more ROF, better accuarcy, and better range, The SS1 or the SS2?

[Foamfoot]

Well, one of them is a springer, and one is a pump gun. Honestly, the only similarities are that the SS1 and SS2 (stock) have two barrels, and they share a name. Past that, really, it's all preference.

Cool thanks. Anyone else?

The SS2 is the hands down winner for power. They are substantially less common than the SS1, however.

I have 2 SS2s now and I personally love them, I prefer it over my plusbow due to its small size. In a sentence, it has the power of a primary in the size of a pistol

The main difference between the guns is what was already mentioned: Preference.

I used an SS1 with a tri barrel mod. This allowed me to rush the hell out of people and have 3 very fast shots in which to hit them. It also prevented anyone from rushing me when i was reloading a primary.

The SS2 however is a pump pistol that gets much better range:

In Ompa's SS2 mod, he said he got 100' or so with 8-10 pumps.

You can usually tell how many pumps it needs by finding how many pumps it takes before the overpressure release valve kicks in.

So your choices are as follows:
SS1: Rate of fire/easier priming time(Springer).
Easily modded(Can't fuck up the air tank as there is none).
Hard Info: Gets 50 feet, can be primed with mods to have 3 barrels which can be fired off very quickly.


SS2: Range/accuracy. (Air gun, singled)

Hard Info:Usually singled resulting in poor ROF. Doesn't help this is a pump gun and takes 8-10 pumps, along with loading a dart into the coupler. All for one shot.
