I got an A-5 becuse I heard about how accurate and fast they are, but when I shoot my paintballs they like corkscrew around... could this be a velocity or paintball problem or should I do something?

Is your barrel clean? Are you using 3 moth old paintballs?

velocity spikes, paint/barrel match, wind. Allot effects the accuracy of a paintball. Remember it's not a real gun and will never have the accuracy of a real fire arm. (well at least for the moment)

14" is a good length ya...

anything longer (maybe not 16 but anything above that definitely) will just eat up gas and not really improve accuracy much. 16 is the limit, 14 is good.

I don't know how you are being truthful, you never stated why you hate the A-5. You act like it's the only gun that could have accuracy problems with a dirty barrel, bad paint or velocity problems(to answer the origional question) Stop typing in AOL shorthand and if you're going to dump on a product, give reasons.
