Well I do know that they are supposedly comming out with a new smaller, lighter, and more gas efficient shocker but thats only what Ive heard. It should be sweet to see what new stuff smart parts has this new year though.

I heard it at www.pbnation.com and www.pbstar.com
Its not a rumor anymore because Ive heard that hyper sport works has stopped work on their new minishocker because smart parts is already almost finished theirs. The All Americans may start off the new NPPL season with them......I guess we will just have to wait and see.:nod:

The rumour is true. I know the name of it as well.
It's called an Impulse. lol
That's what you'd end up with if you made a smaller, lighter, more compact shocker.

Ok Das theyre comming out with a "NEW" gun the impulse is not "NEW":rolleyes: lol
Sin - No that picture was not a picture of a prototype, that was just a big misunderstanding or a joke from that stickball guy. I think they moved the glacier board's led so the blue light was where the s/f switch used to be. It was in an earlier post Ive seen a while ago.

Seriously, I think it's just a lame rumour. What is the point of coming out with a "Minishocker" when they have the impulse.
Now if you're thinking "Hey then you can have a small accurate front gun"
There isn't a normal front player in the world that cares about precision. They care about fire rate
Look what happened to the mini and micro cockers, they have excellent precision and are VERY small, but no front player wants them.
I'm not saying there isn't a market for a "mini shocker" I'm just saying I think Smart Parts is too intelligent to fall for a pit fall like that.
Methinks it started like this "Hey, there's a minicocker, wouldn't it be neat to have a mini shocker?"
Person#2" Yeah, a mini shocker would be a great idea"
Person#3: "They're coming out with a minishocker?"
Person#4: They ARE coming out with a minishocker
Person#5: Would the All Americans use them?
Person #6: They All Americans ARE going to use them
Person #........................
And here we are trying to figure out where it came from.
As for Glacier, KM2's and Smart Part's websites list NO project or concept idea for anything in even SLIGHT relation to a "minishocker"

Its not necessarily going to be a minishocker!!!! Just a new shocker that is supposedly going to be more efficient with better noids maybe a lower pressure, who knows. Im not saying that it isnt a rumor but Ive heard from some supposedly knowledgeable and informed people who have been talking to the people at SP and there is something in the works. We will just have to wait and see.
