My smart parts ion will not shoot?

What's the best upgrades for the Smart Parts Ion?

• I'm deciding if I should buy the Ion or Ion XE not sure if the quick dissemble is worth $60 more for the XE. But anyway I'm getting the Ion for sure because it is what I can afford. So after I get it I'm expecting an upgrade for everything under $250 done deal. What's the best hopper, clamping feedneck, barrel, tank, for the Ion? I'm pretty sure the most important upgrade would be the hopper and barrel. Which one's should I buy and can save me some money? Thanks all.

  Good choice, the Smart Parts Ion is a great gun, I have one myself. As for a hopper I would recommend the Viewloader Evolution 3 with Z-board. It's around $60 and reliable, and on top of that it's cheap for that kind of hopper. It will keep up with you Ion too. For barrels go with the Redz Pepper Stick barrels. You can buy them in a set of 3 different barrel lengths or just buy one. I have one on mine and I love it, great accuracy. You can also find a good clamping feed neck from Redz aswell. As for tanks you can get some good priced ones from DXS air systems, Crossfire or Pure energy. Just look around at some websites for some tanks and you should find a good priced one with a descent amount of volume.
