Ok i have an A-5 with a vertical adapter and a 6 stage expansion
chamber is there any way possible i could mount the expansion chamber
horizontally? I think that would make an awesome front grip

So you want to make it come out the side? Why? Yes its possible, but you would have to completely re-design the A-5. |

Do you mean you want it to go straight forward, like under the barrel, or forward and down at an angle?

Straight forward under the barrel or backwards if there is enough room

put a new ASA adapter into the tombstone and put a 90* elbow in there.
Then just attach your chamber to the fitting. May have to add an ASA to
it.

I personally wouldn't like it. Also, you said you had a vertical adaptar. Doesn't the A-5 come with one built in?

Yes but it m oves the vert adapter to where the front grip should be alowing you to have a gas through grip

Um, no. The A-5 was desighned to fire using the cyclone feed system, which is mounted on the side because of its size. In order for it to use a vert feed you have to strip it of the cyclone so it fires just like a normal paint marker, which I think is a stupid thing to do because it defeats the entire piont of purchasing an A-5. |

Ahh, now I understand, that's a good idea, and it whould only take some modifying to the ex. pan. chamber, if you are a good airsmith that shouldnt be too hard. |
