   My friend wants to sell me his paintball marker. 
It includes: 
A used Tippmann A-5
1 Stock Barrel
1 14 inch Sniper Barrel
A hopper
A 20oz c02 tank

All of that for $200. Any suggestions on if I should accept? Can I get something better for $200? or is the best I can get?

	are you asking me to compare the 98 to other guns? I'm a big fan of vision systems which the 98 doesn't have.

	what kind of barrel? just curious.... a new a5 will run you 220ish, depending where you get it. a new 20oz. CO2 tank is around 15-20 new sounds like a good deal to me, but see if you can shoot it first, just to make sure everything is mechanically sound.

	Make sure while he owned it, he also took maintence procedures.. aka taking it apart, cleaning it, oiling it... that stuff.
