python imp

[okmijn]

I was just wondering if the python imp is any better than the regular imp? If so how much?
Thanks

well thats like asking of a alias timmy is better than a tippmann. the impulse is bare bones. in fact, after upgrading my impulse, IMO the stock impulse kinda sucks compared to otehr high end electro. however teh pythone has pretty much every upgrade available. it will perform about as good as an impulse can get and can compete with any gun. (the python isnt special, many impulse are like this like the 3.5 nasty with eyes, adrenaline impulse with eyes). however, every impulse can have the same parts as these guns. the only difference is that these guns come with really nice milling and all the parts stock. for example, buting all teh parts on that python will cost hundreds, plus teh gun. the body kits is like 300. so you can buy a python for X dollars or buy a regualr impulse and upgrade it for hundreds more than X. impulses are very nice guns, but in todays world where you can get a proto trix for like 700-800 i think impys are going to become a dying breed. but tehy still are very nice guns IMO. i love mine. i will probably never sell it.

thank you

well, all the parts for the AI can't be used with just any other impulse :P

well true but most of tehm can with the right parts and setup, but in general, you can take anything from a 3.5 nasty and put it on a stock impulse. by teh way, okmijin, when picking an impulse like that, (assumeing tehy all have the same parts), basically pick the impulse that looks the best and comes with a better barrel and sutff. casue al long as tehy have the same parts every impulse will shoot the same pretty much.

yeh, the AI is the only impulse out there that uses a couple parts only it can use... but yes ikey, 99.99% of impulse parts out there can be used on any other impulse out there... good times

What is special about the AI parts? I know it has slightly different gas galleries and the ASA is moved forward.

you pretty much answered it yourself.

and yeah the python is one of the nicest impulses out there, provided you get a good deal. you can find brand new adrenalines for $350, and they definately match up with the python if you get an lpr.

I did? I was wondering what specific had changed. Is the ram assembly wider, nipple / solenoid gallery plug wider?

Not that I really cared, but now I wanna know:confused:

different valve spring, different gp valves/lpr nipple, and that's pretty much it ;)

Ah thank you.

and some AI's have slightly different programing. i believe that only the older ones did though. and you're welcome ;)
