Parts / Grips

Aftermarket Grips

Grip panels are a cosmetic and comfort swap, separate from the grip frame they bolt to — this is the smallest page in this whole reference for that reason. Watch the terminology, too: several "Ion grip" search results turn out to be for 1911-style ("standard 45") or Ego-frame markers instead — double-check the listing actually names the Ion before buying.

Stock grips

A textured composite panel pair, color-matched to the body kit and sold together with it — see Bodies for the full breakdown of body kit colors and options.

Aftermarket grips

Currently sold Discontinued Unclear / not confirmed

Snatch Grip New Designz (NDZ) A single-screw-install milled grip in black, blue, red, or silver — a straightforward comfort/looks upgrade over the stock panel rather than anything that changes trigger geometry. NDZ pivoted to firearms accessories and makes no paintball products anymore, but E-Paintball still has this specific listing marked in stock — existing inventory, not an active product line.
Pro-Touch Grips Smart Parts A genuine Smart Parts factory product, not a third-party grip — two-tone, super-soft rubber panels with a molded thumb spot and a deliberately squishy section for the bottom two fingers, explicitly listed as Ion-compatible on the one retailer page that had real product detail. Smart Parts closed in 2010 and no current listing was found anywhere — existing/used stock only, if it turns up at all.
Slim Grip Trinity Paintball Aluminum, in black, blue, red, silver, or yellow. I couldn't confirm Trinity is still an active company (their ASA and body kits elsewhere on this site are confirmed discontinued), but this specific listing wasn't flagged discontinued at the retailer I checked — treat as existing stock rather than a guaranteed active product line.
Ollie Lang Grips (SoftTac) Virtue A signature series for pro player Ollie Lang — SoftTac rubber panels (soft to the touch, but rigid), finger grooves, and raised 3D graphics, sold in black or red. Listed as ".45 frame" grips rather than Ion-specific — that's the same naming trap flagged above, but this particular listing's own compatibility list explicitly names the Ion alongside Shocker, Intimidator, Epiphany, and several other .45-frame markers, so it genuinely fits here, unlike most ".45" search results. Also listed at Oregon Paintball. Includes mounting screws and complimentary grip tape; the LED alignment windows are specifically called out for Virtue Intimidator/Shocker boards, not confirmed against the Ion's own LED position.
