Forum:Which is better?

I have a low level masher thats serving me great right now on my mordecai build, but everytime i get a different revolver, i ask myself if its better than the masher.

looking up on elemental damage according to this wiki, elemental damage can do a shit ton of damage, comparable to a masher, is this true and if so, is an elemental revolver better or is my trusty masher?
