| Review: |
I got mine for $250, really a deal considering the stock Ion was $200 and a Dynasty body on its own was $100, so for only $50 more i had a $70 AA barrel, a $40 Q-Lock, and a $100 body ($210 in value)
For the price the Ion performs very well however I do recommend a new trigger ASAP; right now i have every upgrade an Ion can take in my Dynasty Ion and the thing shoots very well, I also recommend an ASA/rail combo because the bottom line adapter that Ions come with makes for a VERY long marker setup and you will notice that the first time you try to gunfight someone.
Also a new board is a cool feature to have although without a QEV it will be pointless |
 |
| Conclusion: |
I do recommend players in the market for an Ion look into a Dynasty Ion if the price is around $50-$75 more than a stock Ion, the savings are just too good to pass up |
