I know most of you have seen my A5 already, but I fixed the size of that pic finally and added some stuff.  Only upgrades I plan on getting are an E grip this winter and the WAS Equalizer board, along with the JCS duel trigger. (also a new barrel or two) Here is my collection of paintball gear.

A5: LPK, RT, Sidewinder Reg, 12" Bigshot, Stiletto Drop, CP on/off, crossfire 92ci 4500psi
not pictured: 16" 3A knock out, 250rd hopper

98C: GTA expansion chamber, Promark double trigger (with magnetic trigger mod), 12" J&J 2 piece, 12V Revvy
not pictured: flatline, GTA remote line, 12"+14" tips for 3A 2 piece knockout barrel kit, lapco feed neck, 20oz + 9oz

stock TES, (poor mans space gun)

JT proteus 2, thermal lens with fan and custom camo tape job

Get a double trigger and an RVA (rear velocity adjuster).

Aside from the picture being enourmouse it's not impressive.

You put on an LPK, drop, and a barrel. R/T comes installed so you didn't have to go out of your way on that.

How about a different reg, Rear Velocity Adjuster, E-grip with Blade trigger, stock or paintjob.

Plus if you want to keep the R/T and not get an E-grip then you have MORE options. You could get a J and J 45 Grip Frame with Blade Trigger, and slap on some 45 Grips of your liking.

Running out of things to upgrade, gimme a break.

Dont listen to Greedy about the JnJ Grip. It doesnt work!!! Get E-Grip with a JCS Duel Trigger. Then maybe a barrel kit for different sized paint.

WTF? What are you talking about? You don't own one, plus when I pull the trigger and it shoots that means it works . Ugh. Plus you basically just repeated what I and others said about the E-Grip, there an Echo in here?

It's one thing to suggest something but another to provide false reasoning for putting down another suggestion without any reasoning behind it. If it didn't work then J and J wouldn't sell it and it wouldn't be on Tippmann.com.

Have any more stupid comments? I'll PM this to you so you won't forget to respond.

I never did rate the gun come to think of it. It's a decent marker but you COULD do more to it, whether or not you want to is up to you and you only.

I'd give it a solid C, bone stock being an "F"

Thanks for the input everyone.  About the Stiletto drop forward, I really love it.  Hugs against my shoulder nicely.  I guess I should have been more concise and said "running out of things I WANT to upgrade".  I'm not really a sight/scope person, I prefer just pointing and shooting myself.  As for a RVA, I don't know why I would get one seeing as how I adjust my velocity on the regulator, not with the internal adjuster.  Most of you read my mind perfectly, my only plans now are to throw the RT into my 98C and get an E Grip for this.  Only reason I haven't so far is because of the things i've heard about the LP bolt breaking with an E grip.  That and getting a 14" inch All american and a 12" Freak are about my only plans at the time being.  Sorry about the giant picture. Its my first time posting one on the forums I will get better.

Sweet, just make sure you get the JCS Dual trigger from BP-usa.com for the E-grip, it's adjustable, you won't have to get a double trigger, and you can adjust it to a mouse click.
