ion...whats a good air tank and hopper ?

i might purchase an ion in the future and was wondering which air system and hopper would be good. i would like a good hopper at a reasonable price and a good air system. i was looking at hpa 68/4500, but there are so many different ones to choose from. any suggestions on a good hopper and HPA tank for the ion at a reasonable price would help, thanks.

Het a Halo B with rip drive and a 68/4500 carbon fiber wrapped tank.

Steel tanks are heavy and are only 3000 psi. A 68ci tank is a good size because its not too big, so it won't weigh a lot, but it's not too small either, so it will hold a lot of air. You will also get more shots off a 4500psi tank.

Halo and Reloader Bs are both great hoppers. They aren't made from cheap plasic like Viewloader hoppers are, and they have very high feed rates because they are true force fed hoppers. Halo B with Rip Drive costs 110, Reloader Bs cost 250. The only difference between the 2 is that the Halo has eyes and the Reloader is sound activated.

45/4500 or 68/4500

Empire reloader b or Halo b

Feel all of them on your gun and see how they feel. Basically a halo and an empire are the same exact weight, but ones sound activated.

A good HPA carbon 68/45 or 45/45 tank. (to save money, I started with a crossfire 47/30 steel, but im looking to upgrade that sometime...no one knows though, its under a Rhino )

I use a Halo TSA on my ion (again, i dont have lots to spend) and it works quite well. Ive gotten around 12-13 BPS without chopping. Because I saved on the hopper/tank I was able to get my Dye Ultralite, which makes a HUGE difference to me, its an amazing barrel.
