get a new barrel, expansion chamber, double trigger, and look at www.countypaintball.com to look for accessories to upgrade. go to parts and accessories on the left side. see what you would like to improve on. i hope this helps.

It all depends on how you like to play and what you play, if you play woodsball, then maybe a long barrel like a bigshot or a flatline, and then a stock, but if you play speedball, maybe a dropforward, a short barrel, and put in an egrip or RT. I have an egrip but now that I think about it, it was dumb to buy because no one wants to play against you if they don't have any kind of firing modes other than semi. I would go with a RT its almost the samething except its cheaper and not always aloud in tournaments. Good luck if you have any other questions pm or catch me on: MSN dial_1_800_call_att@hotmail.com AIM Trailriding87 |

if your getting a new barrel a big shot is great for the money. Also you should think about saving up for a comp-air kit and nitro. You should also think about buying a drop.

I have : an a-5 and a black magic and on the A-5 i have .... egrip, flatline, and sliding car stock, along with double trigger and the gun is and outstanding although not as light as my Black Magic I would get all of those if you plan on playing some serious woodsball and if your playing tournament games get a bigshot.

I'd go for Flatline, regulator, stock, and drop

Hmmmm...the reviews that I've read and I agree with 100%: A good quality barrel...if you have the $ for a 2 piece combo with a couple different sizes, go for it. Then spend the rest on paint/gas and hit the field and practice...and practice...then practice a little more. |

If you play rec woodsball, dont get nitro, when i go play with 40-50 of my friends and someone new comes and has nitro or turns their velocity up... lets just say about 10 AA-5s with their velocity up isnt a nice thing to have behind you

i just used my a-5 today for the first time - if you have a r/t and are usin co2 def get an anti-siphon put on your tank ($7) - i found the thing would freeze after 6-7 shots when you have the r/t to rapid fire (sweetspot) - once i got the cash though im gonna get nitro -
def replace the barrel - thing sucks - im getting a lapco bigshot 12 inch ($50)- no one seems to have anything bad to say about it - i dont know if i can fatham putting a 200 $ kit on a $200 gun - im also thinking a drop foward - but ots really a personal preference - tippmanns are heavy enough, id like to make it smaller for snap shots -
