and the Dye reflex:

do they both come with reflex trigger frames? what one is overall better? Im leanin more towards Kapp,but im not very sure bout these 2..if anyone knows or has these let me know some pros and cons bout them..thx

Only the KAPP has a Reflex frame, the DYE Reflex Cocker has a DYE frame. My personal suggestion would be to buy neither. The KAPP has a nice trigger frame, but that's about it. The DYE looks pretty and performs okay, but there's nothing too special about it.

Get a 2K3, slap on a Palmer's Frontblock Kit, a Sidewinder Reg, a CP Barrel, a Freeflow Tungsten Hammer, and an Eclipse Hinge Frame. Later on down the road, get an AKA Lightening Bolt and a few CP barrels (if you find you need more varied bore sizes) to reach just about the maximum performance.

oh..well im not to sure yet..i was leanin towards the dark viking, but im goin to performance and good lookin marker. anyone know where i can look at some sick impulses? and whats the better imppy, sick, nasty or rat? thx

i would get a dye ultralite cocker... i know it isnt listed but its close to the same price range and the name says it it is super light and performs great (not better than my tremor series tho...)

It's made by Shocktech, it's ok (www.buyshocktech.com).

If you want full options, I would suggest building your own. Either that or spend a few more bucks and get one built for you by Freeflow (trust me, these guys make the best true Cockers in paintball). Or get a Hybrid by Powerlyte, it works like a Cocker, but has some serious improvements design wise that I feel make it a superior gun (internal ram, integrated LPR, far larger valve chamber, delrin sleeved hammer, delrin valve, mini 3-way block, and a lot more stuff). Plus Powerlyte makes very high quality products and is very customer driven.

Personally I would steer clear of Impulses. My personal SP hate aside, I just think they are mediocre guns. Everything an Imp can do well, there are a few other guns that can do it better. It's not too much of an original design either, more or less a bigger and heavier Bushmaster.

Then again, what do I know, I'm switching from a Cocker to a Viking.

Yes, I love the Hybrid. Personally I'd like to buy one in the future, but I'm set on a Viking at the moment.

It should be 4freeflow.com, it's working for me.

If you shot a Cocker and you like your Mag better, then upgrade your Mag. If you shot a Cocker and like it better, go for the Cocker. It's fairly simple.

my mag is basic tho..i never shot one with xvalve and inteli frame or anything..but im checkin out the hybrids right now. would they do a fade job on one if i ordered it u think? they look pretty basic without any fade

If I were you, I'd upgrade your Mag to it's max (ULE frame/body, X-Valve, Intelli, nice barrel), and see how you like it. At worst, you'd be able to sell it here for a decent pile of cash and pick up a Hybrid if you decided you still liked Cockers better.

Personally I like the simple look of the Hybrid, I'd like a dust red one and combine it with a gloss black secondary color. If you want a fade, you could E-Mail them and ask though. From what I understand, they can do any ano you want, but it might cost extra.

ok.. ill upgrade my mag..

gunna cost alot tho

thx for the help

whats a better, the Y grip or the Inteli, the Y looks like it would be more comfy, but what one u think has better performance?

and would a sidewinder go on a mag?

[Ov3rmind]

As far as the Y and the Intelli, just buy what you think would be more comfortable to play with. That's really all it comes down to considering how well they both shoot.

Don't bother putting an inline reg on a Mag, it doesn't need one. However, for any other guns available, the Sidewinder is an excellent reg.

[NATE-DOG1]

I would suggest a Y but consider your plaing style and current setup. Y-Grips are great for wrapping bunkers and work really well with warp-feeds.
But a 45 is alot better for running and firing with.
And if you go with the Y youll have to go through a bit of a learning curve.
