I love my A-5, but recently I have this strange urge to sell it for an Ion.

I've never shot an Ion, but A-5's are truely amazing guns.
But for a little more the Ion has eyes and can shoot faster. |

I hate my A-5, and it is going bye-bye soon so I can get an Ion.
Nuff' said? |

I'd have to say the Ion is overall a better marker. It is faster, but the A-5 is more durable.

It detects paint is in the breech and will not fire if a ball is only half way laoded so it wont chop.

I've never had broken paint in my rig... never chopped... never had to squeegy my flatty... love my A5... use good paint... shoot all day... no worries... no batteries... made in the USA... switch out my flatty for stock barrel and shoot cheap paint with no breaks or chops... Now my old Spyder could break and chop like a SOB... |

I have both markers and the ION is by far a better marker, for both woods and Speed ball. I am a tippmann man all the way, but the A-5 can't even compete with the Ion. I think that anyone who Votes for the A5 probably has never played with and ION. The only thing that you should think about when making your decsion is that the ion should be ran on Compressed air, and the tank can be expensive.

I have been having problems with the cyclone, but overall I would never
sell mine to buy an ION. Dont do it You wont See Me!! Save your money.
Now that the IOn has a metal body kit for it that makes it much easier to clean and remove the bolt allot more might be buying it which in turn is starting a big price war. You can now get a Proto Matrix for around $650. 4 months ago that was well over $900. Tippmanns need to come down in price I think to compete with the ION. I've seen both in action and the ION seems to be just as durable the A-5. Sorry but that's my opinion and like butt holes everyone has one. |
