My New Ion

[WARPED1]

Bought from www.punisherspb.com and I had them install the NDZ aluminum trigger.

i guess with a few mods it could look okay.

You're silly. The Ion doesn't need any upgrades. I just got it like an hour ago. All I'm getting is a Freak back for my kit and a nice drop. Oh, maybe a HALO B.

[hobbesTZ]

I'm not sure what to say...I don't want to tell you to upgrade anything...umm...Just love it for what it is, and try not to sell it.

How's that trigger working out for you?

[VAballer]

Nice ION. I have a blue one myself. Nothing special on semi but crazy fast on rebound. It's a lot of fun to shoot on either mode. When PTP's frame comes out, I'll have two machine guns.

halo is a good idea for ion's. they are VERY halo worthy.

true, it doesnt need anything. but a new feedneck, barrel kit, and trigger sure make it look alot nicer.

I had a HALO awhile ago for my Angel, I sold it. The NDZ trigger is awesome! I have no air, but the solenoid clicks like mad! :p
Definatly getting a Freak back.

[JimmyBeam]

you played with it yet? if not then just wait......it gets better

[tony3]

Definitely get a halo. New grips always look great on them.

After only shooting mag since 1993 (mini, rt-pro, emag, hyperframed mini, Ule Xvalve, Ule Xvalve Y-grip), I almost feel like I am cheating... :(

I ordered a yellow ION from Punishers yesterday!

Anyone got any side by side pictures...

Could you take the ION shell and cut a hole for the air and use it as a mag valve cover???

I have recently had the chance to get the feel for an ION, while they are undoubtedly light, they are also very lopsided feeling with a full HALO. The one I fondled last weekend was a standard setup, no mods other than a really bad homemade paintjob(i prolly could have smeared crap on it to make it look better;)) It had a 68/4.5K screw insetup on a raildrop, i found it to be very top heavy and unwieldy for my taste. I do have to say that the kid shooting it did say that he liked the Bushy he traded for it better, he to didn't like the lopsided feel of it. If I get a chance to actually play a few games with one, my view may change, but as it stands, I won't be buying one, simply because i don't think it will fit my playing style or comfort level. Afterall, isn't that why we try all these different guns, and setups in the first place?

A nice drop would help balance it, all you drop nazis STFU and don't start.

i put a unimount on mine and have no problems with it feeling unbalanced or unstable at all.

feels a lot like a mag to me.

I agree, the drop would help some but it would still feel somewhat top heavy and awkward in comparison to some other markers out there.

nice ION
did punisherpb charge you to put the trigger in?

[VAballer]

The feel is so much like the mag to me, that's one of the reasons I bought one.

Warped1 have you considered putting a QEV on it. It's totally worth it.

that and the customization options similar to mag
