I bought this marker this week and shot it down in my woods to get a feel for it. I loved it since the first shot. Today I took it to the local paint ball fields and played with it all day. I love the accuracy and rate of fire. I wish it looked more like the EOS but thats just personal reference. The trigger could be a little less touchy, I found myself "accidentally" firing because my fingers got to close to the trigger. The only difference between the XE and the plain ION is the "out-the-back" cleaning system. The out-the-back is simply 20 times easier than the old unsrew this-then that-then take this apart-clean it-then put it back together method. It is worth the 30 - 40 extra bucks.

This marker is fantastic! It came ready to pwn straight out of the box. It's very light, nimble, and consistent. The eyes work perfectly and I've never had any problems.
The only time I had an issue was when I set the dwell to what someone recommended on the internet (MY stupid mistake). It was easy to fix and a couple minutes later it was shooting GREAT. I've never had a problem with shoot-down (keep your bolt clean and well greased!!) on compressed air. I have a freak on it and it is damn accurate, even with $40/case cheap rec paint.
I've put a qev in it and it's so fast that sometimes I have to check to make sure I didn't accidentally put turn on ramping.
It's impossible to program without first reading the manual. It uses a series of flashes to indicate which mode is being changed, and you have to push the power button to "make a change". It's no problem with the manual, but kinda annoying for someone that hates instructions. :-D

Alright, were gonna start with some Pros for this gun. The new bold out back design gives quick and easy ability to clean. The speed it shoots as fast as most paintball fields let you shoot. Comfort, im a small kid, so i needed a drop on my XE but once i got one i cant stop holding it. Weight, it is very light weight. Some Cons are the piece of pile feedneck they got. looks like something viewloader would put on their guns. WTF o-rings. and the air consumption on this gun is pretty brutal.

Totally worth the 20 extra bucks for the bolt-out-back, though there aren't really any uprade bodies from other companies that i could find. If you keep the seals lubed shouldn't be any leaks. a QEV helped alot on air consumption and a blackheart board is a good upgrade. The BB eyes are a nice feature, with wicked fast loaders it's hard to know whether or not they really help.
The asa is stupid, i would have paid more money for a better one, easy instalation but still! and the trigger sucks!!!, who still uses that kind of trigger anyway, I put a cp sling on it and I didn't feel like i was shooting a cheap spyder. The feedneck is not too bad, I had to sand down my halo to get it to squeeze in because I didn't realize it used nxt threads and not ion threads, why......? never shot the stock barrel, but with dye precision it was very accurate, The orange unicorn nano bolt made air consuption, accuracy and speed better. A cp reg. didn't give a noticable difference, a litte more comfortable to hold. It looks kind of cheap but w/e, almost embarassing when someone pulls out their shocker.
It has worked great as a backup to my ego Sl8r, doesn't really see the competitive field but in practice it works nicely. Great value for a decent electroneumatic
