      Head knight of Ni - I think it beats the stock body for sure.

      What's this, a matchin frame you say? Sounds very interesting, but wouldn't this body kit on an Ion be worth as much as a Shocker?

      meh? powercoating kicks ano's ***. tell me what looks better, the ions frame or a dust ano?

        haha crap I missed the pricing part. I'm surprised, the rest of DL's bodies are priced just a bit under 3x as much.


        I do know the AO sig rules, I just want a free sig pic, that's all! :mad:

          could you get a powdercoat fade?

            Yes. A good powdercoating place can do fades.

              Really? Where's the pricing posted?

              It's going to be really nasty anno at that price.

                    One can hope. But the body shown is only polished. Deadlywind would have to clear up the cost of a anno'd body.


                    Not, that I'd particularly care of course. I'd rather spend 100$ on paint or play before getting a cosmetic part.

                    For some reason I don't subscribe to the general paintball mania that changing the colour is an "upgrade". I'm funny that way.

                    So, how do you market a cosmetic change that increases the weight when for the longest while needlessly changing parts to lose a couple of ounces was all the rage?

                      People will buy it. As it is I am sick of looking around and seeing 62 markers at the field that are identical to mine. Need to put some stickers on the ion or something.... But I like flat black, I just don't like fitting in that much

                        Why doesnt deadlywind make this body for the automag?? I think it looks awesome and im sure people would love the sleek design.

                          I like how it has a G7 look to it.
                          Samething here. My first thought was, wow, that looks like the G7.

                            Nice. But the point of the plastic body shells was that it was cheap. Replacement bodies are MSRP $29.95
                            The whole point of the Ion is something everybody in the pb world is missing! It's built to be inexpensive. Reason it's powdercoated is because anno cost alot, for example.

                              Do you think DL could pull of a new trigger frame and vert ASA for it too? If they keep it cheap then they would sell like wildfire.
