Man imps sure do seem to be tricky things. I know quite a few people who own imps some of them love em and have absolutely no problems with them, but others seem to have nothing but problems. I really like the imp when its up and runnin but i also like a well built cocker. The trade could go either way you can get a lemon of a cocker as well i would suggest checking it out if you can if not its gamble. An I proudly shoot an RT occasionaly.
