| i read on post on this forum saying that the impulse without the vision eye thingy is a "chop maniac". Is this true? I'm thinking about buying an impy off of this guy for 350. Its in great condition. Im kind of on a tight budget but i would have to wait a few months before i could afford an imp with the vision eye. Is the chopping really that bad? |

Varies how fast you can walk the Trigger. If your under 14pbs I wouldn't plan on Choping anytime soon... (If your not fast fanning the Trigger I wouldn't buy a new hopper) -------------

I owned an Impy and thats true. I had an Impy without vision and I only chopped a ball once and that was because I was using poopy Zap paint. As long as you have a loader that can feed fast enough you should have no problems. -------------

I also had the WAS kit on my Impy and I'll tell you the WAS board is alot better then the horrible SP vision system. -------------

when i had no WAS board in my imp i was chopping like hell (i was using an egg... maybe it wasnt turned up all the way) but when i got the WAS board it shoots darts. i used it a week ago (timmy was in the shop, thank god for backups) with my friends halo and with debounce 2 on and i had never seen it shoot so fast. get a WAS board eventually -------------

It might have been that you didn't have your EVO turned up high enough.I also was using a stock Impy with no vision and an EVOII but only chopped once. Either way its still a good idea to get the WAS board. -------------

I used a halo with my impulse. I chopped like a blender. I tohught the halo was force feeding, it was some times, but even when i got the stronger detents, it still chopped. Tell us what all is on it so we can say weather it is worth the money. 3 -------------

bottom line, all smart parts products are crap, exept the barrel systems yes, all of the impules chop break and are inconsistant nomatter what kind of shape or what type of make it is ------------- friends dont let friends buy tippmanns plastics make it possible, but not in paintball guns oxymoron, "tippmann werks" smart parts slogan MAKE CRAPPY GUNS AND SUE COMPANYS THAT MAKE QUALITY ONES |
