    Posted: 15 October 2007 at 8:58pm

This is my first post.  This is not my A-5 so I will not take any credit for it, but this is an amazing job and i would like to share it with you.

It's total length, including the 16" barrel, is 28 inches.



-Tippmann A-5
-Custom Bullpup Stock
-E-Grip w/ WAS board (Currently running @ 20 BPS)
-QEV (So the cyclone can keep up)
-Red Dot Sight
-16 inch Barrel (shown in pics)
-Modified 98C Flatline Barrel
-3 Picatinny Accessory Rails
-Tactical Light for Night Games
-Combat Sling
-Remote Air Supply.

OK, here are some more pics of his bullpup. These are an attempt to illustrate how he did this mod.
Right casing fom the outside.

Left casing from outside.

Inside of right casing.

Fitting the Cyclone was the hardest part of this mod. It was a whole lot of cut-assemble-cut-reassemble-etc... He originally had an RT in this mod. I cut the original grip just below the RT ram and none of the grip was visible from outside the stock. Later, He added the E-grip and had to cut the rear of the stock to allow the E-grip to extend out. He made a cover for the grip by cutting one wall off of two AK47 mags and putting them together. This made a double-thick AK mag which just fit over the E-Grip.

This pic shows the mods he made to the original marker. It looked even more extreme with the RT grip with the bottom 2 1/2 inches cut off.

Here's how it fits into the stock. The marker is as far to the rear as I could get it. If I lose the rear sling stud, I could add and RVA. The 16" barrel shows how much shorter this setup is than a traditional rifle.

Here it is with the trigger, spring, linkage and the E-Grip cover.

He is currently modding a Ricochet hopper to fit right down against the sight rail. I figure I'll lose about 25 balls of capacity, but it should be pretty sweet when it's done.

not a fan of the design but the ingenuity is impressive, with the way the cocking handle and trigger are way farther in front

He makes a bullpup kit for the a-5.

I must say this is one of the most amazing bullpup conversions I have ever seen. The fact that you did not have to mod the a-5 to get it to fit and make it look good is inspirational.

Very good idea of using a mag to house the real gripframe.
