is an ion good for the money and tournement play?

[monkeysocks]

search button next time but yes it is great for the money i dont know about tournies

[ToridXFast]

absolutely great for the money, need to replace trigger and barrel once you get it but other than that you are set, small compact light breakbeam eyes differnet modes of fire, a composit shell that if every breaks is relatively cheap to repair, cant chop barrel breaks are common, and they are relatively dependant for the price and construction 2 great resale value aswell, get it i can say you will like it alot

^^^ Agree.

For the money its the best gun you can get.
Put on a new trigger (only like $30 or $40) and you can rip on it
just fine for tournaments

^^^^^^ Good advice

Pros:
-Light
-Fast(17bps)
-CHEAP
-Going to have a lot of upgrades in the future
-Looks(some like it some don't)
-Did I already say CHEAP
-Efficient

Cons:
-Stock trigger sucks, and it is hard to hit over 10bps with it
-Stock regulator may need an upgrade if you plan to go into tourney ball
-Stock barrel needs upgrading(but don't they all)

That goes for most guns...thanks for the advice

Anyways the Ion is a great marker, probably the best for its price. The eye system is a nice addition, and its lite, and damn fast. Definetely something to pick-up if you have the money.

Is it a tourney marker?
Hell yeah!! Punishers raped with Ions in Orlando this year.
