 Topic: Christmas helpPosted: 13 December 2004 at 8:03am |

For Christmas, I have made a habit of buying for family, and then buying myself a huge present. For instance, last year, I bought and wrapped up a laptop computer for myself. This year, I want to get myself an A-5 with a R/T. For those of you A-5 fans, please give me some pointers on A-5 maintenance, ease of use, price of A-5 w/ R/T, etc. (I need it to convince my parents.) Ps I already own the 98 |

There around 300$ and are really easy to clean, Using a R/T takes a wee
bit of time to get used to, with all the adjustments you may have to
make to get that "Full-Auto" Feel to your A5.
But great Choice in a new gun  |

You don't really need to do much with Tippmanns. The R/T is easy
to install, so get it seperatly and save some money. Just make
sure to oil the o-rings every 2000 shots or so...

I have a friend with one and to tell you the truth I wouldn't get it. I would put my money towards like a HPA tank or something like a... well better gun. Go for a cocker or something.

If you can afford an A-5, you could afford a good used 'cocker on ebay. They're nice guns, which, if lacking a bit in the speed department, are extremely accurate and pretty light, with tons of upgrades.
However, if you're settled on the A-5, it's a really good gun. Kinda heavy, but easy to take apart and clean due to the new quick strip system on it. Also, lots of upgrades, can make it quite fast and pretty accurate. |

iv had both 98c and a5, i liked my 98c better, but i like my cocker more than both
 If you are gonna get the a5 its a great marker, and it is always nice to have 2 or 3 or 4...
