 I think your son't like the look for 1 of 2 reasons.

1. Your friend killed you.

2. You stink

Eat, Sleep, Paintball... Sounds good to me.

Shoot, Duck, Roll... Repeat for Best Results.

^^ Useless reply alert. ^^

Maybe he simply doesn't like the look. A lot of people don't.

I like the look accept, it doesn't match the aim I want my gun to look like. Personally I think I should have gotten the A-5 because it looks more like an assault rifle body. The Tippmann 98C looks more like a pistol if you look close at the form. Thats the main point why I am both disapointed in the shape and myself for choosing 98c when the A-5 would have been more myself. But over all I like the 98 C its shoots great.

the A-5 's  frame was designed to resemble the mp-5 submachinegun. the only part of the 98 that looks remotely like a pistol is the grip, which I believe is modeled after a .45

Dfly is correct. The frame is pretty similar to the MP5K line by H&K. For a better MP5 look though, you want to look at the Ariakon Sim-5N

what are you taking about? the only plastic parts of a Tippy are the bottom of the grip on the 98 and the part for the hopper. if it was competely metal then it would be heavier and colder in the winter.you hand could freeze to the gun.

I broke my egrip`on the first day on the feild with it in Coram NYC (BIG GAME 2003).and Tippmann Sales team was right there in the parking lot.They took my Marker and changed it for anotherone right then and there.no questions asked.Funnty thing was it was mostly my fault cause i haddrilled not deep enough for the RT fitting so it put pressure on one of the pin holes thats where it broke off.So regarless of plastic or anything they fixed my marker for me on the spot no questions asked

Yeah, those ones are pretty cool. Neat mag feed system, and ti even shoots from a closed bolt. No improved accuracy form that, of course, but it adds another touch of realism.

that barrel is awesome. It uses a Unisizer at the beginning. It pretty much has soft rubber gills that conform around the ball. Creating a perfect bore match. The ball is held there while the bolt is closed. Then when it fires, it gets awesome accuracy.
