| Review: |
this is just an ion with a dynasty body kit.
if you want to learn more about the ion look it up on pbreview. there are like 1,000,000,000 reviews for it there, and you will be able to figure it out for your self.
the only difference between this and a normal ion is the body. HOWEVER, the dynasty body looks sweet. you have multiple colors to chose from, and it you like dynasty, then it is great. it is an extra $100 more than the normal ion, and some would like to use that $100 for a barrel, or a new board, but whatever. the dynasty ion is still like $900 cheaper than most high end guns.
I repeat, this is the same as a normal ion, but it looks a lot better. you can find one for $300 at dynastypaintball.com |
|
| Conclusion: |
It is a really nice looking ion, so if you like ions, and you like dynasty, then buy it. i gave the ion a 10, so i will give this a 10 as well if you like dynasty, then BUY IT |

| Review: |
I thought nothing of it. It's an ion with a body kit, new barrel and thats it. I thought the ion was a great marker. Although i didn't like the idea of some random barrel on it. why not a progressive or an all american. Nerves are better and pimps, want a new gun. I liked it and the body was great it is still an ion you shouldn't think its better than the origainal. |
|
| Conclusion: |
I thought it was the same thing as a freakin ion, with a dynasty body. |

| Review: |
I recieved this gun about a week ago and installed all my parts i had bought, gassed it up and i was really suprised! I was used to mechanical gun (VL and trilogy series autocockers). The NDZ roller trigger is sooo light and smooth when you shoot semi, you almost don't even feel all your trigger pulls and some people say you can't really reach 17 bps with the stock board...thats a real B***S***. with the QEV i was able to shoot with a dwell of 9 ms (minimum is 8) but i put it up to 13 so i dont get any FSDO. With the dwell soo low and the rate of fire delay lowered to maximum, yes in fact it does shoot 17 bps. This gun is amazing! To anyone wanting to have lots of fun and wants to upgrade to an electronic gun this is the one! This gun is also very reliable unlike syders or VL's...simply look at the company profile...Shockers, Impulses..you can't really go wrong with smart parts.
|
|
| Conclusion: |
I recommend this gun to anyone who wants to have fun with a fast and reliable gun!! |

| Review: |
Well first of all the reason why I got a ion was because it is so reliable..When I had my nerve Id go to a tournament and it would leak and break so I had to use back up markers which they werent all that great.So my friend got a ion and I used it in a couple games and I thought it was just as good as a nerve and it was cheap so I finaly got sick of the nerve and traded it in! The reason why I chose the dynasty ion instead of the stock ion was because it came with a 120$ body kit a 80$ barrel and a 30$ q-lock which mean I was set to go and I didnt need to waste my time installing parts.The big thing I noticed about the marker tho it had a bit of kick and and the trigger was bad.But thos problems were easily solved with a new bolt and I took the magnet out of the trigger which made it ten times better! So over all I think its a great gun and its very reliable and you people reading this review should get one! |
|
| Conclusion: |
I think its a great marker and its very reliable thats why I give it a 110% |

| Review: |
yah no big hype about a dynasty ion, it has an 06 aa body and feedneck. Seriosly it just looks better than a stock or colored plastic body oh sorry polymer. Alot of 10 and 11 year olds keep on saying that my stock dynasty ion is faster than the other ions but then i keep on saying no it's the same just has a nice body i wonder if i acted like that when i started playing. yah but it's nicer than a regular ion. Same speed modes and weight but nicer body feedneck and barrel. |
|
| Conclusion: |
i like it or you can get a stock ion and put on the body later. With a little more stuff good stuff. |

| Review: |
This gun I got for 300 new with all these upgrades. Great deal but its all worth even 500 for how it shoots. Not a ball broken yet, consistent, very fast with a trigger upgrade and just shoots fantastically. any tournament balla needs one of these as a backup marker for any event. Im taking mine as a backup to my pm6 to all the XPSL events of this year. This gun is also very light. There is also only one place to adjust velocity so it is convenient to adjust. This gun is efficient too getting 10 pods off a 72/4500 fill. Not bad for a spool valve. THis gun is hella accurate and quick so... GET ONE! |
|
| Conclusion: |
Great... Just great |

| Review: |
- price
its a very low price for what you get.
-accuracy
pretty good with my pipe, but the stock barrel is sh_t
-speed
my opinion is you only need 15bps ramping and this marker can do it no problem
-maintenance
at first it was a problem but now its really easy once you get used to it.
-air efficiency
well my field only fills up to 3000psi and i can get like 3 locklids and a hopper maybe more.
-looks
the dynasty body looks great but mine already had a couple of scratches on it, i dont know how it happend. And there pretty over priced for a body kit. But it does look great.
Some people at the field thinks im shooting a dynasty shocker but its just my ion. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Its a great marker, It works great and looks great and works loke a shocker. But i have to give it an 8 for the efficiancy and the scraches. |

| Review: |
This is the sickest ion to be sold when it comes out of the box.Its got 200$ ups for only 100$ more than a regular ion.My advice to you if you love team dynasty,which i do and you can get a new barrel and a q-lock feedneck than buy it. It is a great gun for begginers in tournaments and a magnificent gun for back-up for a great tournament player + you'll get looks at the ocal paintball field. |
|
| Conclusion: |
This gun is sick and it can shoot ropes trust me. |

| Review: |
This gun is heart warming. It is the best gun i ever tested.
The only thing i do not like about this San Diego Dynasty Ion paintball marker is that flames is not an optional color choice.
So all of you kids that are hesitant to buy this gun just remember i use and i dont like brag but even though i am 3 years old i can bunker any one like a horse with this gun. (Even you Ollie). |
|
| Conclusion: |
Best gun ever! |
