    Yes, of course he does... When else would his team have the outcome of victory

          Ion is way better stock. The VS comes with a crappy reg and it's way more complicated to tune/adjust. The electronics are cheesier and it's just a cheesy gun overall for like $50 more than an Ion. The Ion can also be made even better whereas the VS's design makes it unable to take aftermarket regs and I don't theink Damon at Scenario Dreams is making a new Tboard for the VS. The VS is just too little too late.

          And don't listen to Don Miguel, he's just a Kingman fanboi. He thinks an Electra is the greatest gun in the world and it's better than a DM5 lol. Go with the Ion, it's the better gun. As much as I hate SP, the Ion is the better gun.

              You are correct sir.

                Eh? Break beam systems don't usually worry about "seeing" the paint, the eye(yes there is only one) tries to see the transmitter. If it does it won't allow you to fire, if it can't see it's transmitter then it allows you to fire. Break beam systems don't work the same way as bounce beams so they don't have the same problems.


                The logic works something like this:

                Bounce beam

                if (beam detected)
                {
                fire
                }


                Break Beam

                if (no beam detected)
                {
                fire
                }

                The trouble with some bounce beams is that dark shell paint has low reflectivity.
