meh...not quite. Yeah a new gun would be awesome...but I have
other...."investments" right now. As for the A-5. The A-5 is a
P.O.S....unless its vert fed, and not an A-5. E-Grip is only a sear
tripper, and breaks twice a day. The Cyclone....I refuse to talk about
it. I don't realy care that the rest of the team is movin up to high
end guns....cuz they break down everytime we play anyways, cough*SHOCKER*cough....or get
pulled for bouncing.
The 98. I don't see many things wrong with it. It probably the most basic gun there is...I'll get back to this or something, I have other crap to get done. Edited by rootsradicals |

The 98 and the A5 are some of the most durable guns you will ever buy. I shoot a 98C and it has gone through hell and back out on the field. The A5 is a great gun right out of the box. The Automag is another one of those guns that will come right out of the box ready to go.

Well, I don't see how you can call the A5 a POS and then not see many things wrong with the 98c since they are basically the same gun only the A5 has a few extras. I can understand not liking the cyclone but don't say the A5 is a POS because of the cyclone. The gun itself is great, especially compared to the 98c. The cyclone probably could've been built a little better in my opinion but it does get the job done very well when you consider how little it costs. It doesn't require batteries and it's only worth about $30 or $40 which is very good. A revvy can go for up to $70 and only feeds to 13 bps while a cyclone can hit 16 bps. The problem with it is the ratchet which wears down too quick. Mine took a little over a year to wear down, I just got myself a new one a few days ago (free from tippmann with the second update). Even if I had to replace it this often all the time, it only costs a few dollars to buy it and it happens once a year or once in every year and a half which isn't horrible. I think they could've made it last longer but it's still not bad enough to make me hate the gun. |

I kinda hate A-5's after my experience with mine. I had it nearly a
year, and it just wasn't a speedball gun. I play back, and shoot a lot
of paint. I of course had everything, Freak, E-Grip, LP kit, all the
goodies, but it wasn't great. Shooting as much as I do, I was burning
through a cyclone basically every 3 or 4 times I played, so I was
sending it out to be fixed almost monthly. And the E-Grip is horribly
designed. It's the best upgrade for the A-5, when it's working right.
It needs fresh batterys, which it then eats through in about a case to
a case and a half, and if you buy cheap batteries, it doesn't matter if
they're straight outta the package, the stupid thing just won't shoot.
It just gave me so much crap I eventually got pissed, sawed the cyclone
off, vert fed it, then ditched it for a better gun.
The 98 is definantly better than the A-5. It doesn't have the cyclone, and E-Bolt > E-Grip for sure. I just recently bought another E-Bolted 98 for a backup to my Shocker, cuz it's a cheap good gun. I went from 98 E-Bolt, to A-5 E-Grip, and now back to a 98 E-Bolt. |
