The most important part of a gun is the player behind it.

Go for the Ion. Cockers have too many problems and are hard too maintain sometimes.

I agree with everyone else, check out the Ion. It looks and sounds like a very nice gun.

The Ion's a sweet gun. I just got mine, and I like it. It shoots like a Shocker, but for cheaper. Definantly worth the little that it costs.

Go crawl under a rock and die. Its nothing like a spyder. Its not even a blowback. Go back to school.

I should be getting a loan from my parents (with any luck) to get one of these.

I would wait a few months and see what people say, I think its too soon to tell wether or not the Ion is any good.
Good Luck
