The barrel doesn't matter as long as you have a good paint to bore match.

For the most part. As long as the barrel is good quality and polished nicely the main part you need is good paint.

I'd just stick with your AA; unless you don't like it's preformance.

Personally I love my Evil Pipe Kits, but again if you are not going to high end or playing tourney ball the AA is a very good barrel.

ahhhh.....you don't need an adapter for the AA to fit on the ion.

But my vote is definetly for the All American.

i do need an adapter, because it is A-5 threaded,

so unless A-5s' and ions are the same, i need an adapter

They aren't.

Ion=impulse threads
A-5=A-5 threads

Ahhh, I see. You didn't make it very clear that you had an A-5. In that case, yes, you would need the adapter.
