I'd say go for an R/T.  Great woodsball addition I hear.  Otherwise you have a great setup.  Go for a good 4+1 Harness and Remote too.  Either that or get a drop and 4+1 Harness.  Good luck and have fun with your new A-5.

Get the E-grip.  I have one and I like it a lot more than an R/T.  Anyone who tells you otherwise doesn't know what they're talking about.

The e-grip is awesome, I have it on my setup and haven't had too many issues with it. The only issue I think I've had is that it does tend to eat batteries somewhat quickly if you'r playing quite a bit. So you tend to change out batteries after every 2-3 days of playing.

I'll take a risk and look on Ebay for what I want...

  1. The Tippman A-5 Marker
  2. Attached X-Core 8 Chamber CO2 inline expander
  3. Attached Dead on Paintball Vertical Adapter
  4. Dead on Paintball Drop-Forward with Tank Presure Guage
  5. A 3000psi 68ci Pure Energy Nitro/Compressed Air Tank
  6. a 20oz. CO2 tank with shoulder mold
  7. Attached Paintball Hopper
  8. The stock barrel
  9. A Armson Stealth 13" Rifled Barrel
  10. A Smart Parts Teardrop 13" Barrel
  11. 1 field barrel cleaner
  12. 1 barrel condom
I think that is a good deal for $300...a year old.
