2004 Rat Impulse

Since there are several styles of Rat Impulses avaliable, and they are all similar, this review covers the Rat, RJR, Rat LTD, and most other Rat's.

Specs of MY Rat LTD
Rat Body

Physical Specs

Weight w/ tank and halo: just under 7 lbs.

Length w/ barrel: 19"

Height: 8.5" very small for an impulse

Looks: The Dark Blue on the Rat looks drop dead sexy. I have gotten compliments from everyone about the looks. Very smooth and flowing body design.

Performance Specs
Over the Chrono: 285fps 170 psi, dwell at 6.75. 19bps ramped, no chops, no drop off.

Speed: In Ramp Mode the gun shoots 19bps constant, without ramp mode i shoot 15-16 bps constant. VERY FAST IMPULSE.

Efficiency: TO be updated

Accuracy: Through the stock barrel, the accuracy is wonderful. I shot 100 shots in a 10" pattern from 50 feet away.

Reliability: This gun is very reliable. Only have had it broken once, but that was because i messed up the valve . Always shoots nicely and consistantly in any weather.

Pro's
Fast
Quiet
Reliable
Accurate
Looks really good

Cons
Heavy
Stock ASA= :tdown
Resale Rates going down

I used to own a Rat impulse and can say the milling was as smooth as any gun I've ever seen. The bodies are truly awesome.

They are good guns, it's a shame no one wants them anymore.

i borrowed a friends ltd for a day and i have to say it was a great gun. I think people have the idea that all impulses are horrible but that isnt true at all. Nice review brock

yeah i think people had bad experiences with poorly setup Imps and they started to get a bad rap. I love impulses to death and my Rat will shoot 15/16 steady stock board in it, but i have the blackheart board in it (freebie) and on debounce 20bps no shoot down at all, and still a consistent 15/16 semi, my biggest thing is how tall they are
