hahahahahhahhahaaaaaa

Played first game of the season this morning. Kid at the field was showing off his new goofy Ion to all the n00b's at the field. Anyways my buddy has a PMI Evo which I'll talk about after.

The ION was a joke compared to all the hype around it. It was less accurate than my A-5 which had the stock barrel on. The only thing redeeming about it is it's really gas efficient and somewhat fast.. until the kid chopped on his second pod. He was using sweet Diablo's too and chopped one real bad. BOOM, Goggles punk!

After the game I asked to see it and he let me just because kids are so eager to show off their guns. I hated the gun. It felt so cheap and would probably break easy. It chopped again when I fired some of my balls and I said here enjoy.

My friend has a PMI Evo which goes for about 280 bucks and it was superior to the ION. The ION was faster but the Evo was way more accurate and didn't chop. Better materials too.

So all of you kids that are praising the ION and don't even have it, get off the bandwagon and smell the fresh folgers.

Theres plenty of other experienced members on here like Jeep who love theirs.

Also what hopper was he using, and why weren't the eyes functioning properly?

huh. If it breaks in the barrel then its not the gun. barrel breaks are because of bad barrel to paint match, bad poopy paint and weather.

Check my thread in the Great guns thread for Timmy tech help or PM me

I think your the noob here. If you werent you would know that barrel breaks are cause by not matching the paint to barrel and/or using bad paint, which would also explaining the bad accuarcy. I know many people on here who have loved there Ion, I myself are now tempted buy one because of all the great things I have heard about them.

You my sir, are a class A noob

For all of you who dont know

Yeah, you should probably contact the rest of mankind, cause I think they're totally copying you.
