  • 230$? Wtf I just bought one for 110$ new feedneck new trigger new reg and a qev.

  • @brian12533 lol i just bought on 90$ with new trigger new barrel and new feed neck with air tank

  • "That's what $230 bucks gets you these days"

    lol, funny hearing that from a kid... :D

  • im getting mine on saturday

  • stinger paint. its actually pretty good paint for the price

  • 1:06 was the best part of the whole video

  • $230 buck can get me a good whore

  • how much is it with tax?

  • nice gun kid

  • you wasted premium for that?! why didnt you just save it for when you play?

  • ion is a great starter gun, but when you get more into it you should upgrade like i did.

  • if you shoot on a human will he die????

  • i got mine with a red body kit for 209$

  • im not advertising but im trying to save up for one on lockerz for free. cost $0

  • i got mine for 220

    new QEV, clamp feed neck, Q rag, blackheart board, and a violent trigger...

  • just put it on full auto

  • WT A FAGIT ASS BITCH

  • is this a tournament level gun

  • yes

  • yeah, but it is like a 3rd of the price

  • what are you talking about?

  • can be

  • should i get a ion xe or dangerous power f7

  • omg 0:49 - 0:54 !!! the paint balls are so fast they seem they are going backwards !

  • wow there's a lot of bashing on Ion's, i think that for the price it's a decent gun, i use it as a backup gun and it's never failed

  • i bought an invert mini for $130 which i love more than my ion.

  • well ya obviously but your usally not going to find a deal like that this is good for kids and rec

  • i dont really think this gun is for kids, i mean how old are you and what gun do you use???

    also, when have you ver heard the words "gun is for kids" in a sentence? lol XD

  • i meant not as in pro players and older guys who have a job and more momey to spend on a better gun like a mini im 14

  • why do you have a job? and are you implying that you have a mini?

  • no i just cut lawns. I dont have a mini im sayin if your older and lloking at the ion then your probally ina buget around 200 but really you should spend the extra buck and buy a mini chill out

  • okay... well im 16 i have a job and i have an ion... lol

    im on a team and we play tournaments but were not spondored, last year we ranked in top 5... so im just saying that its not all abou the gun, so it doesnt matter if your rich or just have some money to spend here and there... the player is more important than the gun itself

  • obviuosly but wouldnt better to have a LUXE the a TIPPMANN?

  • depends on what type of paintball you play, either woodsball or speedball, because i wouldnt reccommend going woodsballing with a luxe and visa versa... also the most expensive tippmann is around $350, the luxeis $1500 and personally im not a fan of luxe's... i'd rather a PMR 09 over the luxe anyday

  • pmr over luxe??? You must havn't shot a luxe yet/played paintball...

  • ...

  • Get a new barrel, it helps

  • Decent gun. Just one thing. I think the kids off paintballing have taken this as there favorite. Cheap and its a serious marker. So i wouldnt get it, cos its just more off a toy then a marker

  • cmon guys... stop hatin on the ion. It is a DESCENT gun for weekend play and just fooling around. It can be a OK gun with a few 'upgrades' such as a clamping feedneck and a new "14 barrel. But, let me tell you this. if you are a serious player and want more that a DESCENT gun. Save your money and get a dm9 , etek2, or even a vice or ego! So, to all you ion haters, know this. The gun dose not make the player, the player makes the gun.

  • terrible at walking the trigger

  • first off.... ions are capped ...... premiums suck... and get a real gun.... it is really annoying when kids go to a field with a fricken ION... saying how many "ups" it has.... the only "up" you can give an ion is called 'dumping in the trash'.........

  • hmm, do you have the gun, have you shot it, have you played a game with it, I DONT THINK SO, so dont say a marker is crap. I have the gun, and upgrades, i've had the gun for 2 years, the worst thing that happened to the gun was when i dropped it the barrel got dirt in it and i needed to replace some parts, witch wa s 5 bucks, so dont say shit..

  • first off.... i have shot Ions.... my friend has one... has 'upgrades'...... but still... it isn't a good gun..... I have a Macdev Droid..... and used to have a AKA Viking... I KNOW what good guns are.... and an ION is definately not.... On my guns... here is how many parts I needed to replace.... ZERO!!!! because my gun was good... and "upgrades" were also minimal... being only the gold bolt on the Droid... which isn't needed... but I like to shoot a little more paint off a fill... so Shut UP!!

  • agreed i have an ion and its dont nothing good for me but chill man

  • is it on psp mode rebond or just semi and ur a trigger finger

  • ion or ion xe

  • its on the title

  • no i mean which one is better

  • none. save ur money and get a proto pmr. trust me ive used an ion. the only thing the XE has differently is the bolt out back feature. dont get the ion

  • Buuuuuuuuurp

  • hell yea smart parts ive used shocker and ion and if you get either get a new feedneck before anything!!!! best advice you know if you ever owned one

  • i would suggest getting the smart parts all american barrel kick butt at a good price

  • u think thats fast look at the smart parts eos..... but dude smart parts is the way to go

  • I might get the ion xe in couple of months. right now i only have a spyder sonix.

  • i have a ion XE right now. the gun needs some upgrades to it. straight off the bat u need a new feedneck and recommend getting a QEV (360 QEV is cheap and nice. around $20) look into other guns too. there are alot of nice guns out there.

  • hey should i get the Ion xe with 14 inch freak barrel and alot of other upgrades brand new for 320?

  • yea definitley. I have an ion xe and ive had no problems at all

  • hey does the ion chop at all? please reply!

  • not too much, with the stock barrelit might cho 1 or two. It has anti-chop eyes built on it so it wont, they really work. Though i would go get another smartparts barrel like th Freak barrel, it'll help with accuracy. But no it doesnt chop.

  • what does the qev even do 4 the gun??

  • it makes it more efficient so you can get more shots of a tank

  • I love this gun, I just got it yesterday for $199..its a nice gun. Only requires 180psi with 3 modes.

  • The SmartParts ION XE is a very good gun you cock suckers you are just n00bs in paintball and you have an Tippmann 98 custom gun yourself soon you will be sayindg that Tipmman 98 custom is the best lol SUCK MY BALLS!!

  • bahahaa

  • ion is a good gun but he has a bad trigger

  • can an ion xe body kit go on a regular ion

  • sort of. you can get the ion to ion xe conversion kit for like 70 bucks.

  • Ion's are wicked good guns alot of people have them too so shut the hell up!

  • $230 gets you nothing!!! haha

  • yep 230$ gets you crap shit cocknocker shit

  • can it use co2

  • yea, screws it up though

  • please get air. please

  • your ion shoots slow

  • ions suck!! waste of $230

  • hey.. with low dwell you have the same psi?

  • hi...i have the stock settings on my board and i want to change that settings but i dont know in how much i have to put my dwell (i dont have QEV)..please help me

  • naa you shoot in slow its all bout russin legion shockers

  • i know the reg Ion has full auto but does the XE?

  • im pretty sure the xe is the same as the original but with b.o.b.

    if you have the money, get something a little nicer. but if you don't, this gun works for you. thats what i did i barely had enough for the ion and over time as i did a few more odd jobs here and there i would have some cash to get new parts for it. but thats beside the point. the stock board on the ion sucks major balls. if you get it, you're gonna want to get an aftermarket board. the blackheart isn't aftermarket btw.

  • Ion xe owns

  • is it on!.....lolLOL!!!!!!!

  • slow..

  • learn to walk your fingers u noob, and thats not fast shooting at all.

  • u dont even walk the gun right ur gonna get shot in the hand

  • in your tab you put funy insted of funny

  • yea 230$ pice of junk get a ego or mini

  • u shoot pretty good for ur age dude im tring to decide to get this gun or the vibe and i think this one is really good but the vibe is great also from wut ive heard...

  • Get a proto SLG

  • i have an super up'd ion xe, and its like a top of the line gun if you really put money into upgrades

  • Is the Ion a reliable gun? Does it break at all. I am getting a new gun and i can't decide on the Ion or a Tippmann 98 with a flatline, double trigger, Car stock, and a cyclone feed system. I am leaning towards the Ion but i also want some input

  • wow can people do their own research for once and stop relying on people to tell you everything!

  • how you take off and replace feedneck on thease it doesnt say on manual

    plzz make video on how to replace feedneck! i beg you

    ~~!!!~~!!~~!!~~!!~~!!!

  • you just unskrew it

  • Dude I had to take mine to Orlando Paintball and they had to use one of those big wrench things that you use to cut a lock and they destroyed it so they gave me a clamping feed neck for free even though i already had 1 coming in the mail. But get a clamping feed neck or your hopper will not stay on at all it will fall right off an when you have a Dye Rotor you don't want that to happen.

  • @italyrocksall U NEED TO TAKE IT TO A SHOP ITS THE OLY WAY

    

  • wats better mini or ion xe

  • MINI DONT EVEN TOUCH AN ION XE

  • Minis are very quirky some of them are amazing but some are terrible. It's really like the luck of the draw I mean they are all the same but some just shoot terrible while some shoot amazing. Also it is Empire's first gun (Invert is a brand of Empire) so it has some flaws. The mini also breaks all the time. I have an Ion Xe and it is amazing. Its so easy to clean with the bolt out back, its efficient, and you can get a lot of upgrades. If you get the Ion Xe make sure to get a clamping feed neck.

  • nice of you to copy what mike said from techpb...

    minis are great

    only some minis were defected, and that was only when they first came out

    i work in a painball field, we are sponsored by empire so i know my minis really well. one person in my team uses an ion xe and totally sucks compare to a mini, sorry but no offense, its my opinion, and my comparison

  • im getting an Ion, VLocity Junior and a Guerrilla Air 48/3000psi tank for $315 cash CANADIAN is it a good deal?

  • vlocitys aren't the best and 315 is pricey go on ebay they have some sweet packages

  • ha u got ripped off vary good gun but i got mine for 200

  • kinda new to paintball... what is a QEV?

  • its a quick exhaust vavle, it allows you to drop your dwell down to 12ms - 15ms...ms is milliseconds

    the dwell is how long your bolt stays in its forward position

  • The guy who is saying that gun is really fast has obviously never seen any other guns, Btw i have an ion xe and i would say my gun is the worst at the site i work on dont buy it mines already facked up after 2 weeks

  • my normal ion's fully goes that fast with no qev check out my ramping vid

  • Great gun, for great price, highly recommended for mid level players.

    also, id have to agree PMI Premium paint is pretty good with my ion.

  • nice walking there. Im buying that gun becuase of this video!!!

  • how much are those hoppers?

  • ion xe or vibe?

  • i like the XE better the vibe is good but its not that fast

  • thats what 230 bucks gets you these days??? what do you know about making a dollar

  • sucky tank? more like sucky gun

  • damn

  • yo at least get a nother trigger and bolt man it sucks

  • you should go suck a dick pussy doosh

  • no they are not metal hahahah

    and my aim sucks?

  • u suck

  • is that stock

  • ion xe is great for paintball at a low price i have had one for a year or 2 now and i still love it

  • please dont tell me that is c02 your using!

  • hes not

  • killer sniper, GTFO, they will do 17BPS on a stock board. ill have a response next week of what 180 gets you these days. lawl at the bandwagon kids in here, who think SP is bad because ions need to be upped. aside from a feedneck and asa, what upgrades does a shocker need? explain how they are the worst yet they innovate adn provide good tech support? Ions all have ramping, and a QEV wont make it shoot noticeably faster, it will increase max cycle speed but you canot notice it on a stock board

  • yaa 230 gives u a piece of shit plastic paintball gun

    hahahahaah

  • its full metal dipsh*t. ions are good but your aim sucks. 3*

  • hey mna i dont know if it is the QEV or u have it on ramping

  • i wanna buy an ion xe.. is it a good marker??

    (sorry my bad english)

  • ok about the xe. first its relly not that differnt form the stock ion or dynasty ion, their kinda all the same. 17bps but dont trust smart parts with anything because they are the worst compony in the paintball industry. and once u get the gun going the shoots like to skip alot for the ions. so u really only get 15bps most of the time. so when u go to a turny and turn in down to 13.33 get in a fight with the owner there that u have an ion so u can bump it up!

  • Thanks some1 who actually realizes that smartparts is the wors company ever. I dont care if the pros use them or not. To have a decent gun you need to upgrade EVERYTHING. You would have better lick with a funkin spyder

  • get a tippy

  • is it good for regular paintball like just for fun paintball courses

  • oh of course. dont get me wrong it just might be the best gun for a begginer or someone who doesnt play that much. im saying for experecned players its not very good. something u might not want to put ur money into. but yeah its a good gun i own a dynasty verison of it. not many proublems except for a asa that was broke when they sent it to me but thats it.

  • wtf the asa was broke?

  • yeah they didnt include screws to the top part so i couldnt get if off to attach it to my gun so i had to buy a differnt one. it wasnt really broke but more like not made to use.

  • hey he has a gankstar chip!

  • dont hate on me I just honestly do not know. what does a QEV do?

  • google it, LOL

  • i found it out like an hour after haha QUICK EXHAUST VALVE loljust helps with saving air and consistancy

  • stands for quick exhaust valve helps the air trave quicker throught rou gn to increase shots per tank and people also say increase rat of fire

  • dude love the ion xe it is a reliable and the best bang for your buck in fact i have a tippman and a ion xe and i love the ion it is fast enough for tournaments and easy to clean and work on it is a amazing gun for an entry price oh yeah mine is stock execpt for the clamping feedneck . later.

  • xe's kick ass!!!!

  • i love ion xe's, im hoping to trade my tippman 98 custom for it

  • XE's aren't any different then a regurlar ion except the body and feedneck

  • and the ease of maintaining

  • i still love it :)

  • i bet empirepaintballer doesnt even have an ego, cuz if he did, he wouldnt be looking up vids of ions..plus most people with egos are a little mature..

  • pmr's arent too great. i would rather get an epiph over a pmr any day..and dont even get me started on SLG's..

  • u know if u wouldve took 20 dollars out of ur piggybank u coludve got a pmr datz what 250 dollars getz u these days.

  • can u use co2 with this gun

  • no u cant

  • a tank is a tank...thats my theory lol

  • no hpa is high pressure air itz a type of nitro but for the ion i think itz low pressure

  • should i get that gun

  • nitro is the same as HPA??

    cuz im a little confused

  • ur a cool dude!! sweet ion i wish i would sell my 07 ego for ur ion wanna trade in a high pitched voice thats what 230 bucks gets you these days!!

  • how do you afford a $1000 dollar gun? your not sposered by eclipse, i know. your fucking rich. or you just had to suck a LOT of dick. f word

  • i could pwn all of ya with my proto rail, i got a halo b loader, cutom barrel, feedneck, trigger upgrade, and suped it to 30 bps

  • is the hopper vlocity junior

  • ya with a gangstar chip

  • i could own you with my ion xe. but i have more upgrades and i don't use ramping like you did.

  • these no ramping on the xe

  • yes there is, the board is exactly the same as the original ion... dumbass

  • did u modified ur gun or its all originall???

  • ok i just hear the last part ^^

  • its stock except for a qev

  • its all original but u shouldnt buy an ion. every1 has 1.

  • ya i know but their pretty good guns. good for low level tournament but once you go bigger u will need a better gun.

  • this is true but ion are not great guns

  • the normal ion is better than the XE

  • dude i just bought an ion xe can you please tell why the original is better....thanx

  • WELL FIRST OF ALL its not about looks when its all comes down to it its about performence and how its works and an ion is defenatly not great on performence no matter what looks the shell over it trust me i had three they all sucked and the fucking kid doesnt no how to shoot let keep it correct people might not be what ya want to hear be its will always be correct.

  • its so that they will break on the target easier. they dont break of a little punch, but break easie, if you know what i mean. its bad if the paint doesnt break on the target.

  • better paintballs break easier.

  • ccccccccccccoooooolllll gun

  • thats a cool gun i have the same gun
