So I own a new field and we rent tippmann 98s and A5s

We purchased alot of stuff on ebay (ie ak47 A5 RT for $60)
in theprocess ofcollecting our 30 rentals we aquired tons of extra parts. I mostly strip the guns down to stock including expansion chambers drop forwards etc.

We will offer some upgraded rentals (ie A5 RT) but I would also like to put together one cool gun for the once a month I actually play.

The body choices are Gilled original 98, 98c, 98cpro, 98c act, or a5

barrels I have stock, or flatlines for any of the choices, or some longer sniper style or shorter stiffi styles.

I have folding stocks and regular
expansion chambers etc.

Now on the RTs I love them but I only have a few on my A5s will an A5 RT fit a 98 ???

On the 98 original I have a Anodized neon blue body which is nice
On the 98c I have a white and black artic camo body which is nice
I havea 98 pro olive coolor with matching flatline which is nice

basically I am hoping you guys can recommend some cool layout that I can build as "my gun"

I prefer to stick tippmann and not layout more than $100 for a used set up which rules out phenoms.
I debated a chromed out faded oracle autococker or SmartPart EOS with chrome everywhere but we are mostly a rec kind of place so if I get one of them it just goes on the wall.

Would love some basic a5 or 98 pics that are unique but not crazy or just suggestions

What is ocol?
I have long term plans to make my 98 blow bubbles when fired using the rt system. I wish someone would figure it out before me.

Sheesh Lightningbolt, grammar/spelling Nazi much?

NYer, you can always go the non-flashy "sleeper" route as well.

For example, I hooked an old e-bolt up to a DMLCD board in a classic '98 and then painted mine straight British military green. Just need to find an old-school double trigger for it and I'm golden.

That 98 video looked good but you need a motorized hopper haha and tuck those wires in lol

I might do something like that I have a 98 old school with the same color paint job too and double trigger i was gonna try to egrip it as one option

My new field marker.
Tippman Carbine
Ruger 10/22 Stock
rim fire tasco 4x15 scope


No hopper or elbow it is single feed semiauto but like a bolt action
I would like to make a small like 6 shot clip and make it a pump but that is in the future

I am a spammer who posts the same nonsensical phrase in every thread I visit.
