I'd open your options up a bit.

What are you looking for in terms of features? I imagine you play speedball so let me throw the System X NME and System X Vengeance 4.0 on the table for you.

As far as the markers you listed go.. does the Impulse have an anti-chop eye? btw the Orracle is an Autococker too.

If a cocker needs to be timed it's not a huge deal. I would take the Orracle.. then the Impulse. But with more options I would take the NME before either and I would take the Impulse 2nd and the Vengeance 4.0. Just so you know the System X Vengeance is an autococker.

the only reason i said autococker, is because im not sure exactly what it is, which is a **edited** sketch.  im finding out from the dealer if it has the anit-chop eye, assume that it does for now. thanks

hopper? Viewloader eVLution or Halo B. None other.

Halo B is a little less annoying because the VL has a wierd neck and is kind of awkward but it works really well.

Try to ignore all the ION posts flying around. People are gonna learn it's not that great.

yeah it CAN run on CO2 but not that great. you'll want to buy an anti siphon if you use CO2. I'd really look into Nitro though..

co2 won't be horrible but you will be missing out on a lot of performance. these things shoot fast and CO2 gets really cold inside your gun and can cause some damage.

ok, an anti-syphon wont be too expensive tho will it? i really just the fact of being able to own an IMPULSE a gun that is usually way out of my price range, and for N20, i have to drive for about 45 minutes.  But the orracle comes with a  68/3000 Pure Energy tank.

even if the orracle comes with a tank you need to drive out to get a fill.

grab the impulse.. save up for N2 maybe or find a closer fill spot.
