However, let's recap on how "good" these guns really are:
The stock impulse is one of the worst electros to date. The trigger sticks, rubs and is unfinished. The imp burps and gets major first shot drop off. I have used and been around Imps quite a bit, and I can tell you that I've seen more problems with Imps than I've seen with almost any other marker out there. NOTE: I said "almost." In order to get a decent Imp, you're going to have to upgrade the trigger, add either a tape-worm (to help it, ya know, recock) or an LPR (to rid it of FSDO) and upgrade the internals in order to get a smoother running marker. I'm sorry, but there's no way that you're going to get away with praising the Impulse as one of the best markers out there. A heavily upgraded Impulse? Sure. Definitely not a stock or slightly modded one.
The stock Shocker has also caused its share of waves with users. From poor consistency to poor manufacturing to a crappy eye system, I've met and read reviews from some very unhappy users. Now, with that said, once SP got their s**t together to actually install the bolt correctly and fix some of the electrical problems, the shocker has become quite a decent marker. The spool valve certainly is a beautiful thing.
Again, I'm not bashing these markers. They CAN be great markers, if well maintained and upgraded. BUT, when you say something along the lines of what you said, you're asking for a thwacking. Here are the names of some companies whose markers ARE that good:
AGD - stock automags outperform every mechanical out there. Period. With adjustable trigger weight and reactivity, there's nothing out there as reliable as a 'mag.
Evil - the omen works simply and flawlessly. As long as you can read (hard for some, I know) you can operate an Omen with 0 chops. It costs about $100 less than either a Bushy or Impulse and can fire just as fast without chops.
ICD - The Bushmasters work almost the same as Impulses, but come with more refined hardware.
AKA - I don't have any experience with AKA markers, so I'll just say that there must be a reason for its extremely loyal fan-base.
There ya go, I showed ya.
