Ive had this gun since early 2003 and its still running fine.
The green paintjob i did held up very well... alot better than i had expected. All i did was strip the two reciever halves and degrease them with gunscrubber. 2-3 light layers of flat OD green spraypaint followed about 5-6 very thin layers of semigloss clearcoat. **CURRENT CONFIGURATION** Tippmann – A-5 Marker Tippmann – E-Grip Electronic Grip Frame Tippmann – X7 Low Profile Hopper Dead On Paintball – Vertical adapter CO2 Expansion Chamber Dead On Paintball – Rear Velocity Adjuster Lapco – Drop Forward Adapter Dye – Full Length Drop Forward Empire – On/Off Drop Cradle Bob Long – 0-1200psi Microgauge Macroline Kit **BARRELS** BT – Apex Barrel Tippmann – Flatline 32 Degrees – Whisper 14” J&J – Ceramic 12” Chopped Tippmann Stock Barrel http://s234.photobucket.com/albums/ee2/jtruskot/Tippy/ ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Edited by comrade_jim - 06 March 2008 at 1:42am |

the only thing thats kinda bugging me and this is really minor is that there is some trigger bounce that i think is just from the recoil. Anybody know of some tips to get rid of that?

I am not sure for the trigger bounce, but I dont really like that shade of green, but to each his own. Everything else is good though.

My A-5 has trigger bounce too. I'm not quite sure what to do about it though, I pretty much just let it be. At any rate, nice gun; the green is kinda funky, but the upgrades are pretty good. |

It looks 'Splatmaster' green. Question: Do you have the gas-through grip or the expansion chamber mounted on the marker? Edited by StormyKnight - 05 March 2008 at 2:12pm |

I see... For some reason i called the DOP Vertical Adapter a gas thru foregrip in the description
Whats on the gun in the pics is the vertical adapter and an X chamber. I think its a 32degrees 4stage but i cant remember. |
