Im currently wanting to upgrade to a better gun since im starting tournaments. I need a reliable gun and that is around 225$. This doesn't include a hpa tank or electronic hopper. Which ones would you recommend?
Your either woodsball or no balls...it's your choice!

Would an ion be good enough? But I think you'd have to spend a bit on upgrades.

Yeah, but so are Imps. From what I understand, the Imps are technically better as for performance and quality, but the Ions are not far behind. Plus they are lower prfile and a lot lighter. Plus, they are more upgradable. But, I'm not too sure, so whatever.

Find a used Matrix.   You can find an older Gen E for around that much.

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.

there's a new rampage board for the ion from APE, looks great.

I prefer the ion out of the two, but i don't like either.

If you had more money i'd say up a 98, but maybe you can find a used one with an e-bolt, or lpk and e-grip etc.
