i was looking at the impulses and how they are going to soon be relpaced by
a newer modle i am guessing. as the upgrades for impulses become more scarace and the ones for ions becoming more common, will the impulse just be a waste now? |

impulse has an owner knowing what he is doing... Their are very FEW
markers out their that can out shoot a pulse that is fully upgraded.

^^ Like my impulse, all it needs to be fully upped would be frame/lpr/board and that would be it for me. It shoots like a dream. The parts are not scarce. The impulse was so popular, there are parts everywhere. Since there are so many, alot of people selling parts used make them very cheap. -------------

well one reason i am asking is, i am looking for a speed ball gun that does
not chop and is cheap on upgrades because i love installing them and seeing how much they help, i love my 98C, but is it worth paying 75 extra dollors on a impulse or save the 75 and use it on an ion upgrades |
