The 2009 Impulse will be an even bigger hit then the original Classic Impulse. There have been many changes to the gun including a non line set-up. These guns have been reproduced and manufactured to compete at tournament level.
The Classic Impulse was one of the most popular
electropneumatic paintball markers ever produced. It found its way into
the winner's circle in the hands of teams like the All Americans and
Strange. Pros loved it for its performance and amateurs loved it for
its price. Even though it has been out of production for several years,
it remains a popular used marker due to its fast rate of fire, simple
cleaning requirements and rock-solid reliability.
Easy Vision
Maintenance – What’s worse than losing an eye cover or critical screw
in the staging pit? We can’t think of much, that’s why we infused the
Impulse with a technology that has been around since the middle ages –
hinges. The Impulse has hinged eye covers that latch securely shut, but
pop instantly open at the flick of a latch, making clean-up fast and
trouble free.
Air Cushioned Piston – As if the ultra-low firing
piston pressure wasn’t enough, we also contoured the gas channels in
the Impulse to provide an air buffer so that the bolt and piston come
to a gentle stop at each end of their movement, instead of a hard
knock. That gets rid of vibration so you can shoot a rope of paint as
smooth as silk.
Impulse Command Panel – Straight-forward
common-sense design puts full control of the Impulse right where you
need it. The Impulse Command Panel at the rear of the marker’s grip
frame gives electronic control with the power and programming button
and pressure control with direct allen wrench access to both regulators.
Venting
ASA – Screw-in air systems are where it’s at. The easy to turn knob on
our integrated hoseless ASA will turn your air system on, or turn it
off, and vent pressure to save its o-ring.
Lithium Polymer Power
– You don’t have to run to the corner store to buy batteries for your
cell phone, and you shouldn’t have to do that for your paintgun. A
built in lithium polymer battery uses the same technology that drives
mobile phones to drive your game. Just in case you blow through the
battery’s optimal 100,000 shot charge in a single game (how many pods
are you carrying?!?) and don’t have time to charge, we’ve got you
covered. Our designers gave the impulse snap-grips and a spare battery.
Swapping for a charged battery requires no tools and takes only
seconds.
Two-Stage Regulation – Sure, a maker needs a
regulator, but two? That’s the secret to recoil elimination. The
primary regulator in the Impulse grip sets the pressure of the air used
to fire each paintball, and is tuned to adjust velocity and to get the
maximum efficiency a poppet valve can deliver. This gives the Impulse
the ability to shoot 1700 to 1800 shots from a 68ci 4500 psi tank. The
Impulse is also equipped with a secondary regulator which drops the
pressure further to an ultra-low 50 psi. That’s about half what
competing poppet valve markers use for their rams, but we can do that
because we don’t need to beat on our valve to get it to open. That
makes the Impulse incredibly gentle with brittle paint, and totally
gets rid of the kick.
Grip Integrated Regulators – No, the
regulators aren’t in the foregrip – they are in the grip frame, in a
pair of compact modular packages. Both Regulators can be quickly
removed, cleaned and rebuilt with a minimum of tools.
Integrated
Relief Valve – We’ve noticed that some air system manufacturers have
started leaving low-pressure burst disks out of their designs. We don’t
but that is because we care about your safety. We don’t think your
Impulse should have to pay for the price if their regulator leaks and
delivers too much pressure. The Impulse foregrip not only serves as a
super-sized volume chamber for the fire valve, but it also houses an
integrated relief valve that safely vents off excessive pressure.
Pressure
Balanced Poppet Valve – When you get your hands on an Impulse, take a
look at the front. That’s not a volume chamber under the barrel (we put
a much bigger one in the foregrip, but that’s another story.) it’s the
valve housing. In its center you’ll see the white front end of our
valve core. Unlike most poppet valves, ours is exposed to atmospheric
pressure on both ends. Instead of just pushing the valve shut, the gas
pressure inside the valve pushes in both directions. The two opposing
forces cancel each other out and the valve can be opened with just a
gentle nudge. This means we don’t have to slam a heavy ram or hammer
around inside the marker. Without all the banging around, it’s easy to
shoot straight on the target, every time.
Hose Free Design –
Hoses? We don’t need no stinkin’ hoses! Hoses can break. Hose fitting
can leak. We got rid of the hoses and got rid of the problem.
Compressed air flows through channels machined into the Impulse body
and grip frame.
The Freak Barrel System – It’s the choice of
champions because it works. A Freak compatible impulse Impulse barrel
back holds a Freak insert and 14-inch All American barrel front. Out of
the box, it’s a great barrel, with the addition of a full The Freak
insert kit, it’s a complete barrel system ready for any playing
condition.
Q-Lock Feedneck – It’s practically the industry
standard. Our lever latching feedneck keeps your hopper securely in
place, but unlocks in an instant.
