It is heavy. But for scenario paintball, it's ok to be a little heavy. Here's the
promised photo of the marker with the drum painted to match the body:



and again as promised in another post, here;s the final on the CQB:

Stock folded (with dual mags):


Stock unfolded (single mag):

[QUOTE=ss88] Oh and also i want to know if your bipod is rotational.[/
QUOTE]

The bipod only folds down and back up. It doesn't rotate. The paint came
from Home Depot. It's RustOLeum Textured Black and Dark Pewter. It
dries with a "Parkerized" look that is pretty flat. If you paint outside on a
sunny day, it dries in about an hour or less, depending on how much you
spray. Use thin coats, it seems to work better that way. Cut your camo
design out of photo paper (it doesn't curl when wet) and LIGHTLY spray
through the stencil you made...notice on the side of the drum how I didn't
allow the spray to go all the way to the end of the bottom of the stencil.

Oh and BTW, even though no one has said anytning, the sling mount idea
came from Greedy!!! Pretty good idea i thought!!! You ought to see his
marker!!!!!

Nice work. I plan on trying to paint old marker frames that I have busted upcoming this summer. I'll have too see how that goes as practice. Seeing work like this and a few others, keeps me coming back for more.

classy.  I like the drum mag and the colt-style stock better, but both are good.

The bipod came from Wal-Mart (believe it or not) and if it's not a Harris,
it's an exact copy!!! Cost was about $39.00 I think and then you have to
buy a mount. Make sure you get the right one. It was $9 or $10 at
Academy Sports. It comes with swivels and some other parts you'll
probably discard. When you mount the bipod you have a ready made sling
mount built in (look closely at the bottom) and you can use the other
swivel for the rear attachment point.

put my gun to shame.
I think this is appropriate to say :

Holy that just makes me . Aside from the fact that your gun collection is just but in a good way. I must now to the true master of the A-5 and tell you that your A-5 is indeed so and .


definent .

Although I would suggest painting the hopper to match the gun. Keep it up. .

Tricked? Sick? Uber? Hell, what does that make this?!?
