You cant argue with scarface man, and once everyone learns that hell just leave hopefully. All he does is **edited** about how much every gun besides timmys suck. Personally, ive seen about 15 ions at the field, and they were all shooting great all day long. Kid with an alias sat out 1/2 the day cause he didnt know **edited** about setting up his timmy board, and had his dwell jacked way high up. I could have helped, but he said he knew what he was doing so screw him. Timmy owners suck, plain and simple.

Except E-99's don't ramp, run higher pressure, have more kick, are bigger, don't have eyes, blow ceals, double fire, and chop. If anything deserves to be called a POS, it's an E-99.

I do not know how good the Ion is. My local shop got them in and it felt good in my hands and I figured it would make a great backup and loaner marker. Well the first one had a defective mode switch and then the second one had a defective power switch. He only had the 2 in stock so I got a refund. I probably won't bother to try again.

Maybe you'r issuses with Ions, if you really have even used them, are rooted from the marker being smarter than the player. I find it assinine that you would **edited** about their hoses, when your beloved Timmy's ARE EXACTALLY THE SAME.

Except the Intimidatpr doesn't have a POS reg that constantly leaks, a POS hose that will randomly blow on you, A cheap vision system, A cheap noid a cheap trigger and all the other problems with it. Blind hatred huh..I think your just to blind to see just how much of a POS IONS really are. I'm not sourning thier reputation Im spreading the truth that they're trash. It seems your to ignorant to except the truth.



I used one for 3 months straight before my DM5 came, and I loan it out once or twice a week at leauge and practices, and it's still never had an issuse. If that;s your opinion of trash, then you're just an idiot.

Like I said, I don't think it's the Gardner's gift to paintball, but it is a damn nice gun for the price, and it's the best in it's praice range for sure. I think it's crap that you're trying to spread filth and lies that could possibly keep someone from having an inexpensive gun that they will love.

count it.

I like the ion, its a great gun for entry level tourny players. It the best bang for for buck. Nothing beats it for 300$. The trigger felt funny, but that can be adjusted.

Stupid Ion Hater n00b!!!!!

JK, but I personally isnt a big fan of Ions. I just dont like the feel of it, but you discribed is some unheard of. Tons of people in this forum got Ions, never complained. I can only remember 1 thread made "Ion help" Outta 142 reviews on PBreview, it got a 9.4. Technically, the body, nor the trigger or plastic, but composite, which is used in the military for many items and equipment. Now Im sure its not military standard composite, but it pretty hard to make weak composite. Try PMing some of the members on the forum that accually own an Ion and see what they think. I really think you are just being ignorant.

You call the Eagle, Eagle does the rest.

Wow I think you've finally proven your own stupidty. The trigger is not the only thing thats plastic try the entire body. Also that reminds me the trigger is made of plastic it looked like SP cut a plastic spoon in half and glued it together. It feels like if you fart to loud the trigger will break. As I said already I have tried many IONS and they've all turned out to be a POS. Since this statement "plastic, only thing plastic *inside* an ion is the trigger, which can be changed." proves you have no idea what your talking about I would suggest you go climb back into the little hole you came from and don't talk if you don't know what your talking about. I have to wonder if you have ever shot or even looked at a ION. My sides are stilll hurting from laughing at your stupidity.

Been there done that. I've tried many Ions and so far they've all turned out to be a POS..I really don't think thats a coincedence it shows just how bad there. When the kid took it apart to try to fix it the thing look like some cheap plastic toy made in China. Those things are horrible I would take a E-99 over a POS ION.

scar, maybe your friend sucks at taking care of it, becasue every Ion i've shot has worked perfectly.

Granted there are always bad batches, look at omens, some never work..., but still, Ios are great.

Go to pbreview.com for more info on it

Don't know much about this marker.  Owner of the local paintball store said he played around with one and said it was really quiet and priced at or around $300.  I'd consider picking one up as a decent backup for my A-5 (or a loaner for a friend to use), but only if I can get more info on it.
