There have been many threads on it before. I havent actually heard anything bad about it, and its unique features are amazing.

wow, this thing has to come up every 3 months, and every time, they get flamed for their looks. well, dont necessarily go off thier looks, they shoot very well, and are extremely quiet. i live 30 minutes from the factory, and the owner is pretty cool. these things are also faster than you think. so before yall go any further, i just wanted to give you the facts. you may continue.

I don't think it looks so bad.

The SP Strange Vision Imp is the uglyest gun I have ever seen.

the mechanics is like a matrix or shocker, utilizes the "spool" valve. as a previous matrix owner, i would get one of those, but im done with high rates of fire.

besides, the ***. 80 gets MORE shots per tank. idk if it does a good job pinching balls, but stock trix's will get about 600-800 balls per 68/45, whearas the ***. 80 will get about 2000 (i forgot what it said, its late, im tired.)

Does anyone know anything about the "voice recognition module" they list as a feature? I would assume you could yell "fire" or something and it would do that... but I'm not really sure how helpfully that would be.

My buddy owns one. Works well, its a heck of alot faster than it looks. The velocity adjust and other various bells and wistles on it just give it a little more cool factor.


And yes it's fugly.

LMAO dont throw them down tho. At AOSE II my 3 man played a local "team" that had 1 and we maxed them in the semi finals and the guy that we shot out last got mad and through his gun down and snapped the feed neck right off. LOL I thought it was funny since it wasnt even a "real" tourney. It was all for fun. But it did break when he threw it down. Bet he wished he had a mag after doing that.:D

I think anyones a dumbass for throwing their gun down... no matter what it is!

I keep seeing these gun pop up, and I have never had the chance to see one in person, let alone shoot one. The feature list is long and comprehensive enough to sound like you could make one tearin' machine out of it with the proper upgrades. This might end up turning into my after X-Mas project, who knows :) If I do end up getting one, I will post a movie with a speed test and explaination of features and blah blah blah.... Laterz!

Little plastic thingie that interupts a switch that does nothing once the chip is flashed with new undetectable cheater software.

Right? :rolleyes:

Well, WAS boards supposedly play with dwell dynamically to combat shootdown.:rolleyes: (can't remember which gun...)
Now without actually having tests and numbers showing exactly how much shootdown occurs under what conditions and how much adjustment is required to overcome it, I guess we can be confident that WAS pulled the correct figures out of his behind.

And of course NO ONE would think of doing the same to increase velocity at high rates of fire but not a low rates when they're being cronied.:(
