Being an SP man I'd still have to say go with a BKO.  Ions are new and untried.  Give em a while to fix the bugs.
Cockers are like stick shifts, after a few transmissions you get the hang of them.

Get the nitro now, use it on your A-5, wait on the egg and Ion. I recommend a Halo instead anyways.

well tippmanns are more for woodsball than they are for speedballpersonaly i would get the ion but i am getting an icd and keeping my a 5 because it is the most durable gun i have ever had so if ur new gun fails on u u will know how to work the a 5 so its an awsome backup

tippmanns are very good guns but they don't come with things like double triggers expansion chambers and things like that. Ion is better than the a-5 but it is new so i wouldnt trust it that much. the evil omen sux ! plz dont get it my friend wasted his money on it. Get lyk a raven nexion, an idc bko,or a b2k4 pds.
