ION vs RS

Im looking into getting a new gun and dont want to spend crazy amounts of money beacause I am a nubbin . Anyway the smart parts ion and the spyder rs seem to be some good picks that are around my price range ($100-$240) please keep in mind I will be running off of CO2 because of availability in my area. Please tell me your favorite and why as well as any other guns in my price range that run off Co2.

Thanks and sorry if this a repeat.

an ion will not work long with co2..period. you'll have to spend at least $100 to get it to work with co2...it's not worth the money

Look also as a spyder VS1.

Yea, spyder VS1, a couple 12 or 20 oz CO2 tanks, a fast hopper (I recommend a Vlocity Jr, this way you can bring it to future guns and upgrade it later too) and your set.

lol im just saying dont get a spyder, my friend has an ion and both him and i love it. It is a nice marker and ppl shouldnt hate on it as much as they do. But i would recommend an slg or pmr over both of these. Also how can any spyder be as good as an ion? lol

I've shot an ion, taken an ion apart and i highly recommend one of the newer spyders over it. It feels horrible, the trigger is absolutely horrid, it take forever to take it apart to clean it, and while taking it apart there's several things on it that can break/ strip for no reason whatsoever.
