ina pickle!
alright so heres the deal, i have about $110 to spend on paint ball. I cant decide whether to buy halo b(current hopper is a tsa), buy a profiler(current mask is a event), or upgrade my ion. My current ion setup is a freak Jr, adjustable feed neck, ez on/off, qev 360, and a t-board. i figure i can afford to buy a firebolt, new trig, and a Revy
In your opinion(without telling me to sell my ion and buy a new gun) tell me what i should do!!

Do you have everything needed to play? If you do, buy paint and go play.

halo tsa is trash, the halo b is kinda mandatory to reach potently of the board, but why bother have the board and hopper to shoot 22bps if i can even do it because of a trashy stock trigger and mediocre bolt

well...lets see...an evo 3 is plenty for the ion at 17 bps. and don't tell me its not cuz i have one and i can max out my ion at 17 bps with that hopper on it. if you get an evo 3 you'd probably still have money left for a firebolt or a new mask. (ps i have a firebolt they are nice)

17 bps is max with a stock board...the t board is uncapped, so it can go alot faster. BHut you think the evo 3 is the way to go?

Your ion should be fine for ups unless you plan on keeping it for a really long time. I would say keep it like that until you get a new gun. Get a nicer hopper or a put that money towards a better tank if you dont have one already.

buy a used halo. its worth the extra money over the tsa. the hopper should last you for a long time, more than just this gun. then id suggest either the mask or trigger. trigger probably. just buy used and you may have enough money for all three

Why I said if you don't have one already. 
So I say a nicer hopper and a used one so you can save some money, and use the rest to go play.

Used Halo for $50-60, used Profiler for $30-40, trigger for $20. There ya go, about $110.
Don't get a bolt if you don't have money, really not necessary compared to trigger, which I consider pretty needed over the stock Ion one. And why did you say you wanted a Revy too??

Use it to buy paint and play more. Or you could get a job and get whatever you'd like.

Like Pilot said, those are actually pretty common prices for both used. Look at PBR/PBN gearbag sales and I guarantee you can find similar deals, maybe even better ones.

why do you want profilers over Events??? i'd say buy the hopper, as the stock trigger is ok if you take out the magnet, and the bolt isn't essential, i notice you have a qev already so that'll have already helped your efficiencey.

Put your $ in the bank, buy some stock, in other words invest the $. Your set up now is sound. The TSA will run at 15bps just fine. They are kinda noisy but it is enough to keep up with you ION.
