    what do you guys think of this?

    Lucky Paintball is basically redesigning the Ion. New breech, new firing chamber, new bolt, new eyes, and new body......and they are only putting out 99 of the new bodies to make it more of a collector's item.


    taken from their site
    With a Target release date of October 1, 2005

    Introducing the Lucky Stage 5 body kit
    Features will include:
    -Only 99 will be sold.
    -Includes Stage 2 for Ion (incorporated into rear cap)
    -Uses your bolt, your bolt stop.
    -You will no longer need:
    ----Breech
    ----Firing chamber
    ----Rear Donut
    ----eye board
    -You will no longer need to touch anything but the rear cap to remove bolt, this nothing like so-called rear access kits being sold today.
    -Aluminum Eye Cover
    -New Eyes are Included.
    -Feed tube maybe excluded at time of release
    -Pre-Orders will be taken, you will need to submit your paypal so that you can be invoiced while they are in final assembly.
    -Jpegs below are final files of 3d model. The color is for contrast and to give you a general feel for how this puppy will look.

        Another thing coming for the ion that should be amazing if it gets off the ground is Adrenaline-pb.com 's new body/board combo. The board will be awesome anyway (enormous amounts of modes, etc, new solenoid, pc connectivity), but they are working on a body that when working with the board will be able to set and gauge the FPS...

                        I'm beginning to like lucky paintball alot now. They are releasing a board for the proto that lets it take DM4/5/C chips so it will no longer require flashing. I cant wait
