I'm stoked to be starting my own users group. So, here is the Ironman owners group.
Post up pictures and a list of what you have, including any upgrades - modifications as well as a description as to why you like/shoot an Ironman.
Obviously I'll go first. I currently have 'twins'! I am thrilled to have in my possession two mint condition, totally tru 2k2 Ironman intimidator's. Both markers were purchased through this forum.

My first, was purchased from 'poloboy821'. Since it arrived, I've added the following: Ripper trigger, 127.4 Frenzy board, CP ram adjuster and a Shocktech clamping feedneck.
My second, was purchased from 'lubebunny'. As yet, I haven't added anything.
Both markers, over the next few months, will be upgraded one way or another. So watch this space.
Why did I choose the Ironman... well, I personally just love the carved/milled look of the Ironman. I know I'll get flamed for this (just try it, and I'll delete you post) but I think the Ironman was an attempt to out finish the Ripper style markers. Sure there are similarities with the milling cuts. But with the Ironman, the Ironman logo and jewels, plus the tomahawk eye covers that match the main body, just give it that little more of an edge.
Like a few of us have stated on many occasions, true Private Label markers are ones that are milled and carved. Not like the modern finishes that rely on lazer engraving, custom anodizing, graphics, etc...
So to me, these markers are true, unique, private label markers. And hence, worth every single penny.
