Ok heres the deal, right now I've got a Spyder Rodeo and I lookin to buy the A-5 R/T as my next gun. I will be gettin that right about when school is over and I get my report card. At that time I should have around $370. I can get the gun for $257 and the Ultralite Barrel for $103. What upgrades specific uprgrades should I get(in order) after I get my bank account up. Also what kind paint should I shoot? I gotta use the fields paint so I am limited to Diablo Heat, PMI Rampage, Marballizers, Evil, Mid-Evil and All-Stars? Finally I'm not the best at installing and modding but I was just wondering if its hard to sweet spot the R/T? Sorry for all these questions. Edited by Revolution13 |

Woods or speedball? I would say look into RT, double trigger, X-core. As you play you'll get a feel for waht you need. As for paint, those are all good brands. I'd probably go with Marbs or Evil. From what I've heard the RT is fairly easy to sweet spot. It just takes some tweaking. |

If you're the guy who was asking about the Ultralite before, I'll give you the same suggestion as last time:
Use eBay, save yourself $40. You'll thank me in the end. |

why would you pay $257 for a a5, unless its the camo one you can get alot better deals that that. You can get one for around $209 if you look in the right place. Edited by Psyrecx |

after the a-5 r/t and ultarlite barrel, I'd say go with a tippmann double trigger, nitro if you dont have it, then a regulator.

don't get an ion.
compressed air is one of the best upgrades you can get next to a barrel, look into that for sure. it doesn't really matter what paint you shoot as long as it's round and it's good to have the bore size work with your barrel. marbs are very good as are evil. |

yes you totally can shoot the a-5 around 12-13 bps legally in most
tourneys I formally played national nppl's with my a-5 on a team very
much like tippmann effect.
