First you want a new barrel. Then you want an agitated loader like an Empire Reloader, or a Ricochet, along with whatever rate-of-fire upgrade things are available for the Icon Z. Then you are pretty much set, maybe a nitro tank which you can use later when you get a newer gun.

Barrel(Cp-1 piece), Loader(EggII, Ricoche AK, Reloader, Revvy), Trigger Frame(Mako Storm), Nitro(Any size other than a 47/3000).

Go for any type of paint-to-barrel match, But if you're a bit stuck on prices Go for the J&J Performance Ceramic 1 Piece.

Hoppers: Go for an Apache or Revvy.

have fun :)

I second this. For a barrel, I recommend a J&J Ceramic or a CP 1 piece. However, I would take a Reloader over the Ricochet, and would take an Evolution II over both. For a tank, I recomend a 68/45 HP Preset/adjustable, or a 45/45 HP Preset/ adjustable.

Wrong. An electric hopper is a must of almost any gun.

What everyone is going to say is get a new barrel first. So will I. BUT if your marker is an electro then you must get a Electronic loader first. The Empire Reloader is cheap and GREAT!!! But if your marker is not electronic then I would suggest you get a barrel first:D

most important get a barrel some good ones are
20-50 dollar range
lapco bigshot
j&j ceramic
smart parts progressive i think thats less then 50
night stick
i would go with the ceramic or the bigshot you can get ceramics for around 25 bucks or less now but you will get slightly better performance with a bigshot but they are around 50
