Functionally they are the same.
The 98 Custom has shells molded so the RT or E-bolt will drop right in. The trigger return spring is different for the same reason.

The trigger guard is removeable.

Older 98's have a different power tube. Not that you could tell the difference looking at them, but an old valve will not fit in a new power tube and vice versa. So if your working on one keep the power tube and valve as a set.

Basically the shells are made to accomidate the upgrades.

a 98c is newer and more custamizable version of the model 98
98% of ion owners think ions are better than any high end gun. If you would like to bonus ball these idiots put this in your sig.

I'm gonna make gills into my Alias.

 

Wait... what the hell was I just thinking... Real markers still have gills, but you don't just mill into a thousand dollar gun.
