Hi all right now I have a Tippmann A-5, Dye Ultralite 14" w/ Double Trigger, my friends and I are starting a tourament team, I am not sure if I will keep A-5 or not as back up or for recreation (not sure). I dont want to really put $1000 in a gun right now, from a site I know I can get a $20 Discount and freeshipping on Ion to make it $264 which is cheaper also..

But anyways I am a back player would Ion's for touraments work well with a back player? Also are they reliable and dont break down much?

Please share your advice! :)

I changed my mind guys, and I decided to try to get a DM4 in the future.. I am talking about once the price goes down $300-400 ;) :D

But I Can't wait until then. I will still love it even if it is considered out of date..
