Id say go with the Diablo Wrath. The Ion looks like Poo and the Wrath is cheaper and shoots faster(20bps)
A-5
E-Grip
JCS Dual Trigger
DOP X-CORE 8 stage x-chamber
Lapco Bigshot 14" Beadblasted

Optional setup:

Why dont you jus wait till the Pro Custom comes out and then make a comparison between the Ion and the Pro Custom....which one you want use is entirely up to you.

Why?

It's a 98 with a E-grip.

How does that suck

All you know about the pro custom is from a bootlegged picture, please in the future make informed opinions.

E-grips = sear tripper
sear tripper = not electro pnumatic
non pnumatic electro = crap

thats how it is in my book anyway, pnumatics are, and will always be far superior, not to mention quieter........

If you are goin in the woods, the last thing I would get is electronic. They are junk. "Sorry cant play, I have a DEAD BATTERY." Tons of things to go wrong. I can throw my tippmann around and Im not worrying about it breaking. Seriously does everything have to be electronic? You can shoot faster- see if I care how much paint you waste. I can shoot better.

Sorry I had to get that out. I'd say your best bet is the custom pro r/t. ill probably be getting that soon also.

You wanna dippisize your drink for only a quarter more?

You want me to punchisize your face? For free.
