i have a 98c right now and i want to upgrade to a better gun. i was thinking of either a '05 pro stock autococker or an ion but i cant make up my mind...i want speed, dependability, and all around good quality...which do u think? pics and specs: PS- http://www.shop4paintball.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=1900 - http://www.shop4paintball.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD& amp;ProdID=1900 Ion- http://www.shop4paintball.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=2478 - http://www.shop4paintball.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD& amp;ProdID=2478 -------------

Well If your looking for speed the ion will be much faster than a mech cocker. ------------- Tippman A-5: R/T Freak Jr. Kit Coming: 68/3000 Crossfire D.O.P. Bullet Drop Originally posted by Tae Kwon Doe- "Good Kids" dont carry around .357's. |

Get the ion. I have an ion and I had no problem so far. I had use the 05 pro stock autococker and its crap. I must had a factory error gun or something, but it chops balls like crazy... P.S if you are getting an ion use nitrogen NOT CO2. ------------- http://www.imageshack.us">

I have a 'Cocker, but I would suggest an Ion because if you ever want a new gun you wont be able to get any trading value for a 'Cocker. ------------- Xbox 360 Fund $530/$300 Oh wait... T.V.

cockers are so much better than ions. maybe not speedwise, but you'll save money on paint. ionic, it was probably chopping balls because a) it was not timed correctly, or b) you were being a retard and short stroking it. with autocockers, the trigger must be pulled all the way back, and let go all the way forward for it to cycle right. have a nice day! ------------- 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 |

If you like upgrading guns get a prostock. If you dont want to put any
money into it get an ion. But i'de take my cocker over an ion anyday.
