Should I get a stock for my A-5?

Hey Everyone!

     I have purchased an A-5 with a flatline, E-grip, and a remote system and this gun seems to own. 

However I was thinking of upgrading it with either and M-4 commando foldable stock or the AK-47 sniper stock and a sling.  What do you guys think? Recommend any other upgrades for my gun?

                                                                            Thx

if you want a stock for looks go ahead, IMO they do get in the way though

well the reason i htink they get in the way is because i dont shoot a paintball gun like you would shoot a rifle. in speedball the stock is heavy, protrudes out in small bunkers,gets in the way when you are trying to play angles around bunkers and in woodball i just dont like to carry the extra wieght

Dont get a stock.  Unless you want to play scenarios and for a "real gun look" dont get it.  Its a waste of money and it makes the gun too long. 

I am more interested in Woods and Scenario play.  I also would like to have more of an assault rifle look since the A-5 is known for a high ROF and that is the style I like.

or, if you think using a stock would benefit your game possibly, buy a used one on ebay or something, get a raised sight rail, and try that puppy out, after all, noone but you knows what feels most natural for you...

1) say if your remote line breaks (unlikely) and you dont use the vertical adaptor its useless, you have the tank as your stock

2) i have the standard stock for the a5 and i will admit it does keep a steady aim, but the top part of the stock gets in the way so if you try to aim you will aim too low, and scratch your face up.

3) stocks break pretty easily

4) my stock shakes and makes alot of noise and gives your position away.

in my opinion save your money for something else like a nitro tank

(sorry i didnt respond ive been gone a while)

i like the stock imo. i really dont know the difference between nitro and co2 except the co2 is cold and nitro is warmer to me in the winter i would use nitro and summer co2. but i have no clue at all i dont have one try asking your local paintball shop.

if you have questions email me Olderthandirt1st@yahoo.com or pm me

Just say no to stocks.

I had a three postion collapsible stock for my A-5 and while it looked cool...it was unwieldy and made sighting difficult. Needless to say, it was removed.
