Ion ups in general

peachesarenottasty · 01-31-2010, 01:09 PM

So I really don't know where to start upgrading my ion. I really don't want to be told to look at the upgrade sticky because it doesnt really say where I should start upgrading from what I currently have. so please don't flame me...

Right now it is all stock with the exception of:
ANS trigger
Clippard qev
CCM clamping
Unimount on/off ASA
CP long reg
Full Freak Kit

any help with colors, ups to get, and possibly just stock board settings?

here a pics, if you can help me figure out waht kind of color scheme to shoot for, right now I was think blue, black, and silver, but any suggestions are very appreciated

The only thing I can really tell you is to get out there and play with it. Don't waste money on this gun. If there is something you absolutely do not like about the gun, if there's a problem, if it's extremely inefficient, then move forward and upgrade it... but don't waste your time and money upgrading an ion. Anything else is just a matter of opinion. Your ion seems to be sufficiently upgraded to be used often and effectively... I think it's fine for now.

k, and do you think it was a good deal that I really only put about a total of maybe about <$100 for it?

That's about how much I'd pay for it.
Good Deal

Yeah, you've got a pretty good ion going on. That thing should last you until you decide to move on to a high end gun, whenever, or if ever that may be.

My personal experience has been I don't need a high end. My Ion is awesome, although I have it a "bit" more up'd then yours.

well this is really just til I can get my angel and the angel tool to use it and lube

if you realy want better performance first upgrade to XE, much simpler to lube, then L7 bolt, then blackheart board. and if you still want to spend money buy a new reg. lastly buy a good hopper like a prophecy, halo b, or empire reloader b. but Drop forwards, on/offs, body kits, and flashy color do nothing to make your gun perform better.
