Hey, I was wondering if anything new come out for the A5 since last summer. I have a A5 with basically everything you can buy. ( i play speedball) good barrel, ape board, nice trigger, air upgrades, and internels and hopper upgrades.
is there any parts that really stand out for performence? I dont know what to buy for my a5 anymore and i dont know if something better came out that everyone is liking. I know its hard to say w/o my list of stuff that is on my gun. i will upload all the stuff i got on my gun and a pic tom. the pic. below is outdated. VV (new picture is comming soon) Edited by tippya5extreme - 08 January 2007 at 10:05pm |

Lightening Rod to go along with the Vortex Mod. Perhaps an RVA?

You may check out an RVA to help fine-tune your velocity. You might also check out a Ricochet R5 to lower the profile of the gun.

Am I reading this right? You've got a tricked out A-5 and you play speedball, but you're still looking to dump more money into a marker that can't truly shine on the speedball field? Save your money and start looking at high-end markers. You could probably have bought an Ego for the price you've paid for everything on your A5. Don't take me the wrong way here, I love Tippmann markers, I've still got my first pro-lite, but as a wise man once said, you can spend $100,000 tricking out a Honda Civic, but in the end, it's still a Honda Civic. If you really enjoy speedball to the point that it is your main game, start putting that upgrade money into a savings account and save up for a used '06 ego, DM6, Shocker, Angel, etc. |
