I used an ION this weekend playing some speedball. Only upgrade was the 14" Stiffy and man that gun is freakin accurate. I thought my flatty was dead on accurate, heck no, the ION blows my A-5 away as far as accuracy, weight and overall "feel". I think I'm hooked now and want to buy one, or maybee a Proto Matrix ($650 now!!) -------------

of course the ion was more accurate. it had a stiffi, and ur a-5 has the flatline. flatlines really aren't accurate. i have one for my a-5 as a backup barrel. the ion would still probably be a little bit more accurate if the a-5 also had a stiffi, but it wouldn't "blow it out of the water". ------------- WGP orracle cp flame drop MACdev gladiator reg Evil pipe kit 68/5000 tank evlutionII w/zboard A-5 ultralite e-grip w/jcs duel trigger 45/4500 crossfire LPK,cp reg Drop forward |
