Impulses have Too many problems completly Stock... There selenoid sux, there feedneck sux, just about the Whole Gun Sux.

If you want to get a impulse worth while then Check out this webiste for em'   www.ratguns.com  The Rat, Nasty, and TONTON are the only 1/2 Decent Impulses out there.

A Rat Jr. Will cost around 525$ and with LPR adapter, and a bit more a Rat Jr. Stage 2 will cost around 575$ And for 150$ more you can have the WAS Board installed.

A 03' Rat will cost 675$ But it comes with a Freak Barrel and will have better Guts.  For 825$ you can Have The Rat w/WAS Board which the WAS Board is One of the Best Boards on the Market. Also for another adition 50$ you can have ND Parts which will make That impulse Everything But stock.

 ND Inside contains the fallowing: Replace the stock hammer assembly with the New Desingz Hammer assembly, Slick Shaft, and SS Rat Hole hammer.

And for the Ultimate Rat You'll Want a Rat Stage 2. w/ WAS Board, ND Inside, and most Any part built for the Rat for 925$

If your low on money go with the Rat Jr. w/ Cricket Board, and Anti-Chop bolt.... 525$

If your Rich, Go with the Ultimate Rat. for 925$

Ok I have alot of catching up to do on this thread

Well I guess about two cases to figure out that Autocrappers are a POS. I didn't have to shoot any cases of paint to find out the shocker wasn't that great, all I had to do was look at my teamates.

Why would I say that well lets see here. Cockers are slow mechanical POS. They need tons of upgrades to make them anywhere near as good as high-end electro guns and thier very unreliable. Also if you screw with one little thing the gun will turn into a chopping POS.

Shockers aren't much better. They ARE more reliable and easier to clean and maintian but the truth is they are very ineffcient in gas and they still use the poopy SP vision system.

Both have thier problems and thats why I wouldn't get either.

Well...lol thats kind of hard to say for me personally. My Impy was very reliable and it was a pretty good gun but in the end it turned into poop. Like the cocker the Impy also needs alot of upgrades to make them good and even after you put tons of money into them thiers still a chance that you'll have problems and theres an even better chance that no matter what you do you won't get rid of FSDO. The Impy stock is ok. Its fast and pretty relaible but as I said before it needs work. Is the Impy worth it, I would say no. I put over $1,000 into my Impy and It still pooped out on me. For all that money I could have gotten a Matrix, DM4 or Angel thats almost perfect stock in every way shape and form.

^ just because you chose to put tons of money into your marker, and you dislike the final product dosent mean that all the guns that arn't high end electros are S . All autocockers don't suck, the stock cocker isn't the greatest, but he shot one with an eblade, btw if your going for and ebladed cocker get the e-orracle.

Bla Bla learn to read. I said the Impy was ok stock but it needs tons of upgrades. After all those upgrades it still ended up being a POS with a most likely blown solnoid. A good gun shouldn't need over 1,000 in upgrades and even more it shouldn't break down after you add all those upgrades. Maybe you don't know just how bad the Impy is. Besides needing a million upgrades parts fall out and get lost very easily. I can't tell you how I lost dumb things like ball detents because they're junk and they just shot out of my barrel one day. Also the aluminum is trash and I stripped the feedneck threading the first time I took off the feed neck to replace it. The Impy suffers constantly with FSDO and to top it off its as big as the WTC. I've owned both the cocker and the Impy and both are a POS.

All Autocockers don't suck now do they...hahah thats funny. Yea I guess after you add 18000 to an already POS it doesn't stink..but then again thats IF the thing doesn't fall apart, blow cup seals, chop paint, leak air out of the poopy three way and just constantly fall apart. Also just because you have a E-blade doesn't mean anything. The cocker is still a POS. I've seen people who had E-Autocrappers almost throw temper tantrum because thier $450 cocker with 1,8000 of upgrades is falling apart. Cockers are by far one of the worst and most overrated gun on the paintball market. Thier even worse them Impys.

This thread is sufficient evidence, all by itself, that nobody should ever pay any attention to anything that Impyking has to say.

Most of you probably recall Impyking defending Impulses against all takers (cockers and ICD guns, most notably) as the parfect gun with no problems.  He denied the existence of FSDO, he said his Impulse never broke down and performed flawlessly, and so forth.  Now that he is no longer shooting an Impulse he is saying the opposite.  The very idea that somebody named "Impyking" would refer to an Impulse as a "POS" should tell you something.

Based on available evidence, I conclude that Impyking is firmly in the "whatever I am shooting right now is the kewlest and everything else sux" camp, and should therefore not be taken seriously.

Just my theory.
