The Viking is the 2nd fastest cycling marker in existance. Jack Rice's Alien marker is the fastest (50+ cps sustained). The Viking will cycle in the mid 40's. The Intimidator will cycle in the mid 30's. The Impulse will cycle in the upper 30's.

The timmy is faster at the moment because of the electronics that control it. hats WAS (Jim Drew) is saying is the the pnuematics themselves are capable of higher rof.

No probs on the email questions feel free to ask anymore!

Hold off on the milling, young Ben... cos the WAS boards will take a different kind of eye to the stock SP eye, which in turn uses a different kind of cover, etc.


BTW: Paul, does he know how fast the new Shocker is capable of cycling at? Cos there's not a lot moving in it, and the bolt moves back and forth DAMN fast... :D:D:D

Im pretty sure that WAS would make the eye the same fitting as the current one or it would a lot of very unhappy high-end impy owners!

hmm... don't the eyes on Timmys have a little circuit board behind them though? If the WAS board for the Impy uses the same eye then they're not really any room for one under the current eye cover... I guess we'll have to wait and see - I don't even remember who told me it was a different fitting now. :D

thats the fastest that the electronic board will let it fire, it won't cycle that fast, so the cap is just a marketing tool.
