Topic: Upgrades for my new A5Posted: 30 July 2006 at 11:20am |

A few weeks ago I just got a new A5. I have a few questions about some upgrades for it. I'm looking into buying a lapco bigshot. I heard before 14" is the best size, but is there really a noticable difference between 14" and 8"? What size would you suggest? I also want to buy a stock. I heard alot of stocks wobble. What is a good stock for under $80? I was looking at this one. http://www.octanegear.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD& ProdID=3226 Also I wanted to buy some target balls. Although many reviews say the balls they get jammed in the cyclone feed. Are there any good target balls that work well for the A5? |

Actually, I've read that 8-10" is a pretty ideal barrel length. I personally like 14" because it gives you more room to work around bunkers and things of that nature. That stock doesnt look to bad. Have you looked around www.opsgear.com yet? Look into Reballs. They're the most popular. I havent heard anything about them getting caught in the cyclone. I know Rufus Dawg makes some also. |

^Oh..ok. I thought I'd seen it on there, wasnt sure of price though. Are you looking into a firepower upgrade yet?

the only fire power upgrades are the E-grip and RT. after you get one of those then you could hot up your cyclone with a QEV and maybe the vortex mod . And barrel length is personal preference. after 8 inch it is pretty much all the same and it boils down to whatever you feel comfortable playing with.
