Well, I went to the Battle of Stalingrad this weekend at Skirmish in PA. Was a blast, camped out there for 2 nights, balled all day, bought a new gun.  I was back and forth about the Ion or another gun, but at the field, there were some venders, and I got to get mine teched and informed about it curtousy of QuickShot Paintball in NJ.

Yellow Ion #7563
CP Razor Drop and CP on/off
Dust Freak back with Teardrop tip(Dust tip on its way)
Dye Sticky 3's

On wednesday I will be ordering a trigger and Q-lok from ratpb.com.

Now the Pics.

I must say, this thing rips pretty hard. The trigger isnt terrible, but hard for me to walk cause my index finger would be where the middle of the trigger is, but new triggers are coming out.

I saw a video of one of those shooting way more than 17 bps. Can you explain to me what the "rebound" mode is? I'm confused.

I palyed with one today though,yes on a Monday.(spring break)

Once I sell my cocker, I'll have one.

Stock reg is fine for what I have used so far. There is no need for me to replace it yet, but I will.

 I don't like the outer part of the Ion's. I would like it better if the outside looked more like a shocker.

Nice Ion. I like my Q-Loc, but I need something a little higher rising than it to fit my tastes.
