your rite mate. 100% i should keep the shocker. But i dont like the trigger and i want a cheap light marker. I am a student now and have literally NO money. I still wanna ball and an ion is cheap light and reliable. I would have to spend a bit to up the shocker, to where i want it to be, but i just dont have the cash right now. so here goes a real bargin.If your selling the shocker for just 150 to downgrade to an ion your better off keeping the shocker in my opinion mate. Your not going to get a 'descent' ion for much under 150. But either way, good luck.
