| Review: |
I got this gun as a gift from my parents. I played a couple of times and loved it. i gradually put more and more upgrades on it. Its sort of an exact copy of the normal ion except it has the BOB. The only problems i had was the fact that I had to pay 40 dollars for a new qlock seeing as my first hopper before i got the virtue (egg 3) kept falling off...
(key note - - if you try squeezing the hopper in the stock feedneck... it wrecks the hoppers feedneck)
My stock board harness also broke like the second time i played with it... i have no idea how this happened so i had to send it in to smart parts.
Also my trigger broke and I had to get a new one of those.
I don't really see why people always hate on this gun. It's an awesome gun and its brought me through lots of wins in tourneys against others with egos and dms... you just have to put the money and time in it.

| Conclusion: |
Overall this is an amazing gun. Go buy it if you like customization or if your just one of those weekend warrior guys. It has awesome price and the guys over at smart parts are great. They fixed my board for free after the battery harness broke on my stock board. |
