Heavily Used A-5

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hey I have a chance to buy a heavily used A-5 w/out a barrel or front grip for cheap.  They said I would have to clean it also and probably replace all the o-rings.

From what I've read, these guns are like tanks and after a good cleaning it should be running pretty good (barring any crazy broken internals) right?

	Gotta love Ebay, I was bidding on that one too.lol..I have an A5 and I Love it. Good luck on getten it, the Flatline would be a good barrel 4 it. Also the front grip is not a manditory part., the marker will work just fine with out it.

	It was on ebay and it was won for $80 + $20 shipping so $100 total. I didn't win it tho... I thought $100 was a little steep for an old heavily used A5 w/out the barrel & foregrip. I would rather shell out a few more bucks and get it new.
