also whats a good barrel for the a5 before i was leaning to a custompro because i thought that the a5 would be to heavy for me to carry but i like the a5 im only 13 so what do you all think

Go with the A5. Its not heavy. For a barrel try a lapco bigshot or a j&j ceramic.

I have a custom pro and I love it! It was a tough run deciding between the A-5 and c-pro but I think I made the right decision. My freind has and A-5 and it chops on ocassions but my custom pro hasn't chopped once. It also comes with the double finger trigger. I'm 15 but I'm only 5'1" and the A-5 was to bulky for me. The good the is the A-5 comes with the cyclone feed system so you don't have to blow $50 on a hopper. It's all prefrance. If its cool with the guy from your local proshop I'd ask him if you can test them out. I hope whatever your choice is is the right one for you.
Thinking about it...

custom pro i would say, the a5 is nice, looks great, but the cyclone uses extra gas, and only single trigger. choose custom pro
