Flex Paintball
what paintball gun to buy?
ok, im prety good at the sport so now im gonna go ahead and buy some good gear, right now i have junk, so far iv decided- for the gun- SMART PARTS ION EX(225$), the mask- JT PRO FLEX(60$), the loader- VIEW LOADER EVO 3(60$). and does the tank relay matter?? whats a good tank for 50$ ? and a good barrel? or anything else ill need???
I don't recommend you get the ion. It is a ok marker but to make it any good you have to upgrade... well just about everything on it. The ion and cheaper marker smart parts make are not that good and need just about everything upgraded on them to make them any good. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3zrEXr_k170
I recommend the proto slg 09, azodin zenith or blitz, or Pm 7. These are all better markers right out of the box then the ion. Ions are fine they just need a good amount of upgrades to make then reliable and operating good.

Yes your tank does matter. You want to use hpa not co2. You can get a good quality hpa tank for about 50 from ninja paintball, a 48/3000. It is really good quality and it will get you about 700 shots per fill.

A good barrel to get is either a two part 14" cp, dye, or proto barrel with a bore size of .685. Or a full barrel kit like the evil pipe kit or freak kit. Better quality barrel you get and better you match your bore size to your paint the better your shots will be.
The view loader evo 4 is a ok loader. It is very popular but it is a lil over priced for what it is and how it works. I recommend the invert too, halo b, or pinokio. For the price the invert too is the best loader.

You have a good mask there only recommendation is look at the new jt revolution. It is a lil better and has move coverage then the pro flex and flex 7.
