Ions are fine. The owners are not, with the exception of a very select few.

I have used a bone stock Ion before, and while I don't like how it shoots in comparison to other guns it is a damn fine little gun for $200 or whatever they go for now. The Epiphany was a lolsy failure because SP didn't think we consumers were smart enough to know it was a glorified Ion with an ugly body kit, and from the looks of things the EOS will be a similar situation. The Vibe would be ok for the super low-budget crowd, but it doesn't have eyes and like tallen said, chops with that thing will be a nightmare.

Ontario, canada. just start setting up seminars in every city explaining everything about why sp sucks/is lesser than cockers and pretty much any other gun. lol my friend is in the reserve and his regiment has challenged me to play. i figure there gonna be good, but they all have done up x7s and think that its the most accurate and strong gun(how can a gun be a strong gun?) and that cockers are old and dead. hehe, one had the balls to say that they could take on any Canadian pro paintball team. anyone got the number of Edmonton impact?
Im lucky I live in Saskatchewan and everyone here uses pump cockers and tippmanns that are from the 80's/90's and the noobs have ions and they that theyre the best until you bunker them with a smg60. From what I've seen of ions theyre pretty durable (but theyre SP) and I dont like the new guns that most companies are making because they dont work well under less than great conditions (+40 or -20 celsius) or when it starts raining. I think the ion is probably still going to be the best option because theyre so common and are decently built guns that are pretty good but are getting old so maybe i'm wrong.


People around you actually shoot the paint they have for thier smg's? most people I know just hoard it so they can say they have paint for it.

I just stick to bunkering twibs with ions with my buzzard, and then they slit thier wrists because its a pump, super easy way to get rid of a pain in the ass.

Ghillie, there's a probably new run of .62Cal paint coming up, there's been a lot of trade on e-bay as well recently. I've even seen some of the other rarer calibers up for sale recently. This time of year, people will sell off their hoard to finance new acquisitions.
