I've been looking at buying a new gun and i was wondering if the smart parts impulse is worth it.
How fast does it shoot? and what modes does it have? And what else do u recommend in that price range? ------------- Your either woodsball or no balls...it's your choice! Choose Wisely... |

Impulses are amazing when UPGRADED, stock, not so good but if you get NDZ internals, new feedneck and trigger, it will own its fast, but it depends on the board, i believe the stock cricket vision is capped at 21?? with no modes, but you can get it ecsed for $30 and get ramping and all that Impulses are cheap because of the size of the newer guns coming out and the ion takeover They are really reliable, i have yet to have any problems, and its really easy to take apart and clean -------------

------------- come with me if you want to live....... 98% of ion owners think ions are better than any high end gun. If you would like to own these idiots put this in your sig. |

imps are fast with the right upgrades. but they are also very large and heavy. by the time it is upgraded you have spent alot of money on something that if you ever go to sell it, you will barrely get anything for it. i would say look into the ion or promaster. or look for cheaper used guns like pm5's dm4's and shockers. |

you can get them on pbnation for cheaper, for upgrades on impulse, you want NDZ internals, new barrel(maybe), new trigger and feedneck but you could get one upped alot, like mine, for about $300, rarely, you see people selling their STOCK promasters for $300 paintballgear.com has Angel G7s for $588, so prices on high end guns used are gonna go down -------------

If I were you I would buy a A-5 stealth with E-grip or R/T or just a regular A-5 stealth or A-5 Sniper all around the price of $200-$450 off of Ebay. That's a really good deal considering how much your getting you should check it out |

Any gun in that price range will shoot pretty much just as fast, and will be pretty close. Ive owned DM3's, Rat Impys, Ions. They all shoot pretty much the same, its just what your most comfortable with... Personally, I thought the Impy was a little bit to tall for my playing style (i play front), the matrix was perfect but a little heavy, and the ion was just perfect for me. Its just what your comfortable with. I recomened going to the field or local pro shop and ask to demo each one of the guns in the price range, and see what fits you best. ------------- *Team Compulsive* Sponsors *Won-Ago-Biking* *Curleys Waterfront* |
