I would like to think the Angel owners for their advice on the different type Angels. However, I deceided to stay with the Smartsparts low pressure family. Consequently, I just ordered a Black Cave Rat Impluse with a verticak Reg from e-paintball.

Here is my new Baby!

No offense to the Angel people, because they're nice guns, but I've heard some things about the boards frying and resetting and stuff. But about the Rat Imp. You'll have to pm me and tell me what you think about it. I'm thinking about getting one, but I want to know what others thinks about it first. FOM and his crew are great people to deal with, my teamates all bought their imps from him with no problems. Peace

Tottaly, congrats on it. My team bought everything from FOM as well, really tricked imps, on up to my Fly and my shocker. Great guys over there!!!

Cave rat eh? Hmmmm, very interesting

I don't know man, I've got all the imps on my team running blade triggers and they all out shoot my angel, and the trigger on my angel and my other teammates (who I set up) rip, you can just get a little more adjustment out of imps. It's all in the activiation screw, thats what does it.

after owning an imp and currently owning an angel, i don't really like the imps that much after shooting my angel. my impy had tons of stuff on it (df, gad grip, bolt, barrel kit, stickies, blade trigger, warped sportz mini on off, was missing only a vff and tape worm), the angel really doesn't have that many performance enhancing upgrades for the angel, because it has it all, doesn't need enhancing. also, angels cleaning and maintenence is easier/less time consuming. It's super advanced, lcd (including nice little features), awesome milling and anno.

Not many imps have that, some have some good milling tho. ;\

True I love my angel, but imps are half the price. I wouldn't trade my fly for anything.

Imps are great markers.

probably my favorite behind the angel family. I shoot a matrix, which has a very similar trigger to most angels (they are adjusted virtually the same, and thus have a nearly identical feel to them).
My dad's impulse (upgraded by FOM... vff, voodoo delrin bolt, blade trigger, freak) can outshoot my matrix in nearly every catagory. speed, short range accuracy, it is more air efficient.
it is more compact. (my matrix is more accurate from farther away).
Impy's are awesome markers.
IMO they are hands down the best marker below $900. (I think they are better than all bushys, matrix, timmy)

dont bash the imps.

(still... I am getting an IR3 over a vision impulse.)

Id rather have the angel. IMO, the Rats are short and boxy looking, but thats just my opinion.:)

yea, for the price, imps are awesome, especially if you can get if from craig or walt over at E paintball outlet. With the blade trigger, man the impulse shoots awesome.

Personally though the angel is fast, and feels a lot more comfortable to me. For budget paintball players, i cant complain about the price and performance of an impulse though.

This was an answer to some Angel owners who had help me make a decision. I will not be posing anything else about Impluses on the Angel board. I just started saving again for my next new marker will be a Warp Dark LCD or IR3. But that will not happen tuntil next year.

So just mine your own business dude and chill, man.
