Carefull there, If I have to start selling off my Prototypes to prove you wrong, the bill from "Sizzler" aint going to be pretty.

I've done more in past for free food.

I know a lot of us are waiting patiently for the Pnue-mag to come out. It's been a couple of years already, so what's another few months. I'm already setting $$$ aside to purchase the upgrade.

The Ion will not affect my purchase for the Pnue-mag Frame.

Each marker, the ION and the Pneu, will have their own market and appeal to different type of pballer. Personally, I'm going to wait and see if the Pneu hits the market and if/when it does, I've already set aside the money needed to buy it. That being said, I could buy 2 IONs, but that's not the type of marker I'm interested in purchasing.

I'm older than a lot of people on here and have used all types of electros, mechanical, and started in 1988 with a custom pump. Now, I'm a bit older/fatter/slower and would rather use the skills and knowledge I've acquired over the past 16 or so years to out play the opponent, not overspray them by sending paint all over the place. My first pump marker weighed a ton, but it was solid and if it was dropped, it still shot. I'm not a fan of ramping and spraying paint all over the place.

Both markers have a following and debating which is better is moronic. You shoot what you like and can afford. I'll shoot what I like and can afford

I'll see ya at the 50

Ditch the pnuemag; get an adjustable and rapid fire!

To the original question: While the Ion might have a small effect on the sales on the Pneu-Mag upgrade, I doubt that it will really bite into the market. Once the product is released, that places it on equal footing with the Ion in terms of availability. The Pneu-Mag appeals to a very niche market, and I doubt that many in that market will be swayed by the Ion, or any other comparable gun, really. Just think - we've already got the Ion, Omen, Bushmaster and a few more within the "inexpensive electro" category.

Those people on AO (a decent chunk, unfortunately) who feel it's their life's calling to bash the Ion/Smart Parts/Who-ever shouldn't be taken seriously. I've yet to see a single well thought out argument against the Ion...or any marker, really. There's a lot of hate on these boards for things that aren't mags, palmers, or other niche markers. Just tune them out and pay attention to other stuff.
