Review:
The Rat factory impulse is one crazy marker, but its not for people who just got in the game. If your planning to stay with this sport for a while than after a couple of years of playing, this would be a pretty good marker. Its not really expencive and the fact that its light makes up for the big frame. When i first got it i thought i got ripped off, but after i took it to the local field and tried it out, it was awsome, and when i went to the tournament a month later our team kicked ass with it concidering almost half the team had rat imps. What i recomend for someone who just bought this marker or is planning to buy this marker, its pretty good and before you concider playing in tournaments with it practice a bit to get used to the feel, cause itll take a while( cause of the unique shape-if your wondering why).
Conclusion:
In my personal opinion i think this is an awsome marker, but dont get it if you just started and if your not planning on sticking on to the sport.
i think this review probably belongs in the Rat jr. catagory. the gun that you're describing doesn't really sound like the rat ltd. The feed neck on the rat ltd is a halo no rise and, in my opinion, is very good.
Dispute: The writer of this review stated that he had this gun and wrote the following under his "maker setup": 2003 rat factory impulse with Y-board, custom freak barrel, Empire B hopper, 45/6800ci pure energy tank
The rat Factory impulse is NOT the same as a RAT LTD. All though this is matter of opinion, the feed neck on the rat jr. (more similar to the rat factory) is more, well, "crappy" as valleyboy called it. the ltd comes with a halo no rise, and, in most people's opinions, is very good. Secondly, the Rat LTD, doesn't not come with vision standard. Perhaps i am only misinterpreting the review, but i think it should be considered that it is in the wrong catagory.
