    Vision Impulse or Egripped A-5

    Hello one and all
    I had a discussion with a fellow paintball player not too long ago, and didn't feel like arguing him out
    So I'll let you decide
    I have a 2004 SmartParts (hey, it works and I mow faces) Visioned Impulse, with Shocktech Tapeworm LPR kit, FireballMountain Delrin Trigger, Vert Maxflo(a given, but is worth decently more than a horizontal), DART Delrin Bolt (Planet Eclipse), Hybrid Technologies Midrise Clamping feedneck and a ubernice Chrome Flame On/Off Drop forward, running either a nitroduck CarbonFiber 68-4500 or a Centerflag 68-5000

    Thats my setup

    HE, however thinks that his setup is worth more
    I'm dead serious here too
    Tippmann A-5, egripped, with minor mods to "blow on the trigger and have it shoot".
    OH, the kicker, he says he does 20 bps and he's running it on non-anti-syphoned co2

    Honestly, give me a magnetic kit and i'll get mine to do the same thing
    MetalThorn345 is his AO name and his AIm
    and he can reclarify any other mods on his gun

    Which is worth more
    Honestly

    i will pay $50 to see him shoot 20 bps.

    my friend was shooting about 16 on co2 and that froze the bolt, then cracked it


    just ignore him, thats the best way to say...

      its immpossible for a tippmann to shoot faster then 15 BPS. The ram cycle can only do 15 cycles per second before it starts to have incomplete cycles. Incomplete cycles= blender.

      With that being said, both guns now adays have TERRIBLE resale value. Egriped !-5 go for about 250, MAYBE 300 if you find the right buyer.
      Impys go for about 375-400

        Honestly your gun by itself is worth more than his entire setup.

          I'll add another $20 to see him shoot 20 bps on a tippmann..That is balls a second, not cycles(or incomplete)

            tell him to post a video of him at a chrono with 20bps.

            and tell him no... "my only video camera broken" doesnt work

                    I believe the noid in the e-grip can only do like 14-15 so yea unless he chnged the noid then theres no way and even then the board prolly won allow that rate of fire...and how the hell do you make an e-grip so it shoots when you blow on it??Not saying that mod cant be done im just wondering..the 20bps i do say is bs.The e-grip mechanism you push the trigger against reminds me of the little hair clips girls use where they snap one way then snap the other way...yes i know im good at describing stuff.
                    O yea the imp for sure your lucky to get 270 for a used e-grip tippman.

                        I thought egrips were capped at 13bps

                          im being serious here, he wanted to know, so i didnt feel like arguing him out
                          and really, im not egloating, im e-b@tchslapping him in the face for saying that an a-5 is worth more than a vision impulse
                          well, its nice to know everyone loves my gun more than an A-5 (big whoop)
                          Thanks
                          I'll be sure to pass this thread along

                            They are.

                            He ABSOLUTLY cannot shoot his A-5 at 20bps because the board in his e-grip will not allow him to.

                            I'd say that your gun could be sold for $350-$400 (and that's only because it has vision) and his for $250-$300.

                              your imp is worth a lot more than his a5. I thought the A5 egrip was capped at 13. And also the cyclone is rougher on paint at more than 15bps, even w/ the RT. It will start breaking paint.
