Which one do you think is good for a person w/ 2 years experience, I myself am leaning towards getting A ULE Custom, but im not sure if it would be better to get like a WAS'ed impulse

Which Impulse? There is an enormous difference between a stock one and a RAT Imp.

Yes, I know it says "any brand". But my vote depends on which Imp you are talking about.

'Mags are cooler 'cause fewer people have them. They're also a lot smaller and lighter. However, parts are harder to find, and they don't have as many upgrades. A little more complicated as well. If all you're talking about is firepower, Impulse owns anything below an E-mag.

owned 2 mags and one impulse:

my $200 used classic mag with an $80 HPA tank and a rev out performed my $800 rat impulse with a max flow tank and a halo a and b (thats all they had at the time) in every way except the impulse could chop balls 13 times a second, while i could shoot a grape with my mag and put a slight dent in it.

who needs a life time warrenty from a company when you have a gun that is a life time warrenty on its own.

in my opinion atleast, i have owned alot of smart parts products and seen alot of them at my local field and i find that the quality of their products to be terrible (i mean the accual construction of them) and when it comes down to it it doesnt matter how fast the gun will do this or that if it doesnt work half the time, and my mags have always worked the same way every day

Hardly the case, mags are very simple and don't need eyes because of the level 10 bolt, it will never chop.  Get a mag - you won't be disappointed.
