I have a 98 Custom(year old) with only a tippmann double trigger and a flatline barrel installed (which has a stripped screw but Im working on it).

Im on a low budget (About 225$) and I thought it would be best for me if I sold my 98 Custom and buy the A-5 instead of buying a cyclone system and RT for my 98 Custom.


Should I upgrade my 98C or just buy an A-5?

upgrade the 98c.  You are used to it, it is a good gun.  You will enjoy it more than having the a-5 and it will cost you hundreds less to do.

Go with your gun and a cyclone and r/t thats what i got and i works as well or better than an a-5 and is alot cheaper you could get the stuff and still have cash left for some balls. but if you get cyclone and r/t make sure the cyclones one that comes with the banjo "T" otherwise you will have to order it from tippmann like i had to and thats an extra 8 big ones.
