Hey, I plan on starting competing soon and need a marker that will compete with al lof the shockers and other high-end markers.I was going to get an E-bolt, but thats like 300$. I'm considering buying an Ion. I here good things and I am convinced that it's worth it. I don't have much cash, none actually, but I just can't spend too much. I'm also considering buying a Crossfire LP tank, 68c I think. Is this a good idea, thanks.

E-Grip
JCS Dual Trigger
DOP X-CORE 8 stage x-chamber
Lapco Bigshot 14" Beadblasted

Optional setup:

yes it does, it can reach 17 bps! alot of people that compete can't even shoot that fast.

I know this, but I'm not exactly a pro either, I just need a marker that will at least compete with a reasonable price. And if anybody is posting just to "dis" the Ion, then just don't say anything.

then what would be a good tank to go with it. also, i don't think the Ion can run on CO2, but I'll ask anyway, can it?
