whats the best upgrade for the ion?

[PaintBallBandit]

i used a ion the other day with a virtue board and freak barrel kit and to be honnest appart from the range the gun never let me down all day not one barrel break or battery problems brilliant modifacation

 

[Mactoshdog]

on my ion xe i have:
virtue board,
techt blot,
virtue QEV
and an roller trigger.

depending on how much cash you have id recomond a PMR.

but if you after upgrades then bolt and QEV would be 2 of the best for the price.

pete, how much is the

techt blot

. I knew they made a bolt?

Whats the blot do and where's it go

haha

Anyways,

You may want to consider getting the Epiphany firing can upgrade, depending on the way you play. The firing can upgrade allows you to eliminate "drop off" at higher rates of fire. Although you will get more "kick" when using one. If your not going to be lingering in the higher rates of fire, maybees get the un1tech firing can upgrade which is a larger firing can than the stock one. This allows you to lower your markers pressure, efectivly letting you get more shots per fill and less "kick" when firing.

Hope that helped.

I'm shocked that no one has said a hammer, a bonfire, or the bin, things ain't what they used to be. Did all the Ion haters spontaneously combust with their pent up anger?

I was just about too.


Never forget.

I'd say stuff like:

• A nice shiny new barrel
• A new feedneck
• A new trigger
• An OOPS
• A BOB bodykit

I've never much fancied aftermarket boards, and all the mixed reviews for QEVs put me off those, but the people who have used them and know what they are talking about are definately worth listening to.

appart from the range the gun

the only thing that effects the range of a marker is the FPS (apex and flatline barrels excluded)

That's not strictly true.

That's not strictly true.

why not?

if a paintball is travelling at 300fps it will travel the same distance no matter what barrel it's just left - unless the barrel is giving the paintball spin etc.

There are other mitigating factors
