Incredible after market bolt produced by New Designs that is guaranteed to increase your shot-to-shot consistency and also lowers your dwell by a considerable amount. Much Lighter than the stock impulse bolt and much more durable. A terrific investment. A must for anyone looking to improve consistency.

Wow this bolt is great. With a the stock bolt I had a ton of kick but now all the kick is gone. I also had a gain of 300+ shots. No other bolt can compare with the ND. The only problems Ive seen is my friend had one and it swelled from paint and water being on it but the bolt still performed great exept it was hard to get out of the gun.
Conclusion:
Get this bolt if you dont already have it, you wont be disappointed.

Review:
i have the white (reflective stubby equalizer bolt. previously, i used a strange bolt. i was a bit disapointed at the fact that i didnt notice any difference whatsoever between the 2. its a great bolt. if you have the stock bolt or any other bolt besides the strange than you need to get this. and remeber if you have WAS get the white because its reflective, enabling you to use eye mode 2, which doesnt use a ROF cap like eye mode 1, which you would have too use if you had a noon-reflective bolt. does that make sense?
Conclusion:
It is a great bolt, a great partner to the titanium bolt pin. get it.
No Breaking balls
How thin it is it causes less friction
Light
Weaknesses:
None that Iv'e found.
Review:
This bolt is down right awesome. Ive never broken a ball with this bolt. Since its so thin it just slides and it feels like if its floating in there not touching anything. Its really light. Since its delrin theres no need for lubing it also doesnt use o rings. DONT use lube on this bolt itll just mess everything up. My friend didn't listen to me and he had to use so much pressure just to get the ball out of the barrel. This bolt is really fast. It let me shoot exactly how fast i needed it to.
Conclusion:
Get this bolt instead of any other. i give it a 10 cuz of its over all performance on the field

multiple lengths available
high flow
no lube needed
Weaknesses:
none
Review:
this bolt rocks. There are several lengths to choose from, you never have to lube it because it is made of delrin (and that also means that its really light), The wide open 3 hole ventury design makes it super high flow, and there is little blow back because it it perfectly fit inside the breech of the gun. I don't know what else to say, its a great bolt
Conclusion:
I highly recommend this bolt, it should be one of the first upgrades for any impulse

Weaknesses:
None
Review:
This is a great bolt. it comes in many different sizes. this bolt never needs lube or anything. i have had no problems with it. the price fits the product.
the only thing that you should be aware of with this bolt is that if u lube it it may cause problems. the lube causes the bolt to swell up and slows it down.
i want u to know that if u lube it a little bit (not that u need to) it most likely wont affect it.
Conclusion:
Great bolt if used correctly don't have to worry about lubeing it up or any of that kind of stuff. the price is great for what you get.

I have only had the stock bolt in my impy, I love the ND delrin and wouldn't change it.
Marker Setup:
Blue and Black 2k3 Impulse,
WAS board
ND venturi delrin bolt
ND stainless steel hammer
Tape worm
Uni-mount ASA
2k4 Smart Parts grips
Blade Trigger
System X 68/4500
All American two piece barrel
Halo-B loader
Strengths:
Definate higher air effeciency, light, self-lubricating, quieter performance, and better accuracy.
Weaknesses:
I doubt that there are any.
Review:
After installing the ND venturi delrin bolt, I definately noticed that my impy performed at a higher rate. My accuracy increased as well as my air effeciency. Before the installation, I was averaging maybe 800 to 900 rounds per fill. After the installation, I am now getting about 1200+ shots per fill, from a 68/4500 tank, this is without a LPR or the R.I.P. Valve (which I plan on getting next). My rate of fire has increased a bit due to the weight lost of the bolt. The ND Venturi is definately a most have for Impy enthusiasts. I doubt that I would have another bolt in my marker unless an act of God made me due so. I'd like to see another company match what ND has done for the Impulse.
Conclusion:
Definately buy and install this bolt for better performance and efficiency. I'm absolutely positive that you will be more than amazed at what it can do for your marker!!!!!!!!

Weaknesses:
None
Review:
This bolt is extremely light. I could actually notice a difference in my total gun weight with it installed compared to the stock bolt. This means that the gun can cycle faster, and that it is more effecient.
Its made out of delrin. This means 2 things: you don't need to grease the bolt, and you will not maul your gun's body every time you fire it. Its nice that yoou don't have to grease the bolt, but this is a minor advantage in my opinion, since you should always grease any non-delrin moving parts after you play, meaning you still need to do the valve, ram, ram shaft, and solenoid. But, since it is self lubricating you will never need to worry about scratching your expensive marker's body, which is always good.
I noticed a small improvement in effeciency (about 30 extra shots per fill) with this bolt, and my chrony variance range decreased by about 2 fps (My impulse was pretty stock at this time, I think I had a tapeworm installed).
Conclusion:
Bottom line, if you want to get a new bolt, definately get this one.
voo do bolt NDZ has the best bolt is a great set up for those who dont want any were on there gunanto get less kickout of it to make it more accurate.

Review:
This bolt is by far better than the stock bolt. Its made of delrin so no lube is needed! You can get it an any length you want. Less kick than stock bolt. Much much better shot count i got at least 100-150 more shots from this bolt alone! Cheap only a $30 upgrade!
Conclusion:
Buy this its a must have better shot count and less kick at an affordable price!
