Beautiful! From where and how much?

[ultralight]

wow, someone actually made a sexy ion. i'm impressed.

they still need a new frame.

i think that SP should give the ion what is known in the automotive industry as a mid-cycle update. by that i mean that the 06 (or sooner) model should have some major cosmetic changes.

still, this is pretty nice. any idea who makes it/what it costs?

[edit] ha, beat me to it.

[magman007]

[peewee]

YEp, have been for a while along with every other SP gun made.

[SpecialBlend2786]

and it actually looks good

[WARPED1]

I talked to the Strange boys at thier bus at the Orlando Open, body was still being milled but they were taking preorders. I'm getting one in black soon.

It looks good till you get to the trigger frame. Oh well, looks good.

[MonsterMag]

Custom milled 3D aluminum body. ( plastic is for toys )
:spit_take

[Maggot6]

I think smart parts should make like a, normal ion that we buy now for 280, and an Ion "pro, or "extreme" or something.And sell it for about 500 with a new body, new trigger, and feedneck, and something done to the damn buttons you have to press to get to every mode..

[shartley]

I think you made a mistake… you posted a Mag. :eek:

Oooops, my bad… ;)

Seriously though, I like clean uncluttered looks. I think this is a step in the right direction.
:clap:

[yakitori]

so the body only allows you to access the back two orings on the gun by removing the swivel donut? You still wont be able to unscrew the whole firing chamber to lube the other parts like the bolt stop orings, etc?

Looks nice though.

[SteelSoul]

Yeah that is real nice
I am buying a Ion this weekend for my son. This looks very nice
The Strange body with the CP roller tirgger will be perfect

[Evil Bob]

Sharp looking body! Would definitely look cool in gloss black. Not a bad price either @ $150.

a PL Ion would be nice, but if you want to spend up to 500 just buy the base model Ion and do what I did. customize it the way you want to. the Element body with 90*frame should be out in a week or so. I think im going to go with that one. think of this body, dust black with the inner tube annoed red along with a red trigger. ~sexy~

[fire1811]

nice
dont really like the "I" in the ion though

[WARPED1]

Yes, the bolt slides right out.

[fire1811]

Yes, the bolt slides right out.

which is freggin awesome I might add

[JimmyBeam]

Yes, the bolt slides right out.


im still trying to figure out how since you have the bolt stop which is removed from the front of the firing chamber

[Coray]

That is hott

[WARPED1]

You unscrew the endcap, then use the stock velocity wrench to undo the screw, then the whole bolt assembly just slides out for cleaning/lubing.

[cdacda13]

It looks nice. But the ION cut out doesn't fit.

[WARPED1]

Yes, one of the Strange boys gave me a demonstration.

[sisco87]
