Well if you want a gun thats good for speedball then your probably gonna need someting fast and if you get something fast and you use co2 with it, it will most likely freeze so my advice to you is go ahead and get an Ion and just buy a cheap HPA tank. they have some that are about $80 and get about 500-600 shots out of them but at least its HPA. Or you can get a Diablo wrath. Wraths are excellent guns too!

Yeah, speedball+CO2 = bad

Definately save up for the tank, its worth it

The Wrath is pretty good. I would still recommend that you upgrade to hpa eventually because the marker will still freeze up if you shoot fast.
NASA and the Americans spent millions of dollars and hundreds of hours to develop a pen that would write in space.....The Russians used a pencil.

Cheapskate hopper Evolution 2.

Air tank, the consensus around here is 68/4500 HP Crossfire.

it's not so much that c02 will freeze up when you shoot fast. it's more so that if any of the liquid co2 gets on the board/electronics it will wreck them.  if you use co2 with an ion then you have to get it anti siphoned.  but you can easily get a small tank for 30-40 used on pbn or ebay

The C02 never touches the electronics.

The liquid is very bad for the solenoid.
