Omen, tho the only thing that might be a problem but really isnt is that its a blow-back, but that just makes it more reliable, so its not really bad
oh yea, be prepared for ionpride and IONKID to say "get the ion man it rules" like they have in every other thread that includes ion

I love Ions but in this case I would have to say the Evil Omen 2.0 is better

OMG SHUT UP
ive looked at 3 posts today
and youve been in all of them saying "Ion all they way"
or
"ion is the best"
shut up and support your anwsers
anyway, id rather have the omen, on pbreview only a few people dont like it but for wierd reasons. omens also come with REALLY nice warrenties. The promaster is close in your price range at $360, and it owns all guns in close price range with it, including the Ion

I have heard rumors of problems with the Omens (thought about getting one for a while.)
The Ion is basically a low-buck Shocker, and there are board upgrades for it now that put it into the 20's and improve the eye logic.

well im gettin the omen, first reason it shoots 25 bps, 25>17, second ions look soooo cheap, and number three the omens only problems are adjusting recock and maybe the cam arms not working

Who cares how fast the gun shoots? How fast can YOU shoot? It takes alot of practice to shoot 17 bps, and a hell of alot more to shoot over 20. And walking your trigger while sitting on the couch watching tv is alot different than walking it when you're being shot at.

Thank you! I wondered if somone would make that point.
I have yet to meet anyone who can top 20 bps without a cheat of some sort.
Besides, much past that and you can forget getting a hopper that can even supply paint at that rate. Even with eyes, if the feed rate of the hopper won't keep up, the marker won't cycle, of if it screws up, it's frappe' time for your paint.

ok? well say u go past 17 what then?? and the omen has a lifetime warrantee, LIFE TIME! And in my opinion ions are horrible, they look like they are rubber, HUGE regulator. But u guys can like what u want im just tryin to get my point across that omens are better , thanks for the opinions tho

Well, then why are you asking our opinions, if your mind was already made up? Hope you aren't disappointed with your choice.
P.S. - Lifetime, in the case of Evil, means the lifetime of the company. Personally, I would be more inclined to bet on SP's long-term survival.

my mind wasnt made up i just did tons of research, well i would choose lifetime warranty over ions any day, i mean an ion is a good gun just a rip off i think, i mean i dont know how an ion beats the omen out, omen shoots faster, has cam arms just as good as eyes, lifetime warranty, the best reg ever, and the t-board is about to come out
