Go with the A-5 and get an E-Grip later down the road. Never delt with one stop paintball shop.

I personally like the 98 more due to you can get the 98 for less it weighs less and I have had less problems with my 98 then everyone else I know with there a-5's people say a-5 comes with hopper and all but for the difference in price you could buy a hopper probablly an evo 2 wich is just as good as the cyclone in my mind.

If you get a 98 c then it's cheaper so you can get some upgrades for it and then it'll really rock.

You could buy an e-bolt, e-hopper,longer barrel like my terminator barrel, cause it goes on 98s and spyders so and it's only like $36 so that would rock

98c just cause its cheaper and has as many upgrades. when you get the 98c you will only need a revi because the 98 is capped at 13bps< revi speed, so lets see so far. 98c 130+ revi 45+ r/t 80+ werks barrel 55=310 so its not much more for all that than buying the stock a5.

98cs also take up less air. A-5s take up alot my brother has one he says he likes his 98c more than his A-5 because the A-5 takes up alot of air.

ok, me and a friend bought tippys. I got a 98c my friend got an a-5. the rest of the team had crap for guns. now most have 98c's beacause they wanted the reliability of the 98c. my friends a-5 is ok but its shots are very inconsistent and not relyable.
