I'd say save up for a shocker. Tippmans are great guns but they cant keep up with some of the more high-end guns out there unless u put like a grand into them.

Forget the Impy and the Shocker, go for a Viking. Much better gun than both. It'll last you a lot longer than an SP gun. A WDP Angel Speed would be a great choice too. Yea, a Viking or Speed would be better choices than a Impy or Shocker. Unless of course you have SP techs constantly around you who are waiting to fix your gun whenever it breaks.
Seriously though, a stock Speed or Viking will serve you better. The Imp and Shocker need quite a few upgrades to get them running smoothly. You could spend that money on paint and admission instead of wasting it on making your gun function decently...

there are simple upgrades to make the impulse neck shorter than most guns, only costing you about 50 dollars for this i would consider an impulse
