My god, if i'd have known my ion was just an illusion all this time i wouldnt have been playing with it! cheers for the info steve, i must have really been letting the team down...
Promaster or Ion
- Thread starter benn0r
- Start date
both are good guns, its just that the promaster rips out the box, the ion i had to put a fair few upgrades on it to make it decent (such as trigger, feed neck and barrel)
both are good markers for the money,
personally though i would try both before you buy

I'm loving the new Promasters!
And yes - they will definitely rip out of the box, where as a couple of key upgrades are required for the ion to rip fully.

To be pedantic, I don't think any upgrades are necessary to make the Ion rip - ie; shoot fast. The upgrades required are to get rid of that bloody duckbill, and then convenience things like the feedneck, but that's nothing to do with ROF. There's nothing wrong with it's performance out of the box, except the stock barrel (like most) is a bit tight.
yeh to be fair, i've never changed the feedneck, a halo slips in perfectly with a lick of lube and then sits tight as you like.
hmm that would be a funny break out
as every one has said try go to your local site and see what guns people have, if you dont find a promaster a timmy is almost the same
Yer, i know i really should try before i buy, but thats the problem, im not gonna have a chance to try any of them, thast why im asking
I personally feel that the stock ion trigger is nasty compared to others, it just feels cheap, it wobbles 2 much and isnt nice in the hand. I find hard to get a stream going compared to anafter market trigger such as a CP blade
Where as the promaster trigger out of the box has a nice trigger already installed, that is nice and easy to rip with
thats just my opinion each to their own
