My A5-M4 Flatline

evil_fingers wrote: Actually you dont have to use the 98c Flatline barrel jus to add some length and to place a front sight on the barrel to complete the look....this is what the owner of the pbshop that "was" in business before he retired....he took his A5 Flatline shroud and cut off 1" from the front end of the shroud....the end result was awesome and he only did it to add the JCS bi-pod to his A5, you can apply the samething to your Flatline shroud and be able to put an M16 front sight and if you want a "flash suppressor" on the end of the barrel...to further give your A5 that M4 look.

 

That's actually what I've already done.   I made my own shroud out of PVC pipe, and it's about 1 1/2 inches shorter than the stock shroud.

I don't have a front sight, but I have a feeling when I get one I'm going to need more than 1 1/2 inches to mount it.  

As for the question about the carrying handle, it's from Rap4 Canada .  I got it to fit on to the marker by taking it to a grinding wheel, and grinding the rear end of the carrying handle almost completley off, then grinding the bottom edge a little bit.   That made it so I could mount it nice and snug on top of the marker's normal rear sight.   The rear sight was the only thing keeping it from mounting correctly int he first place, so I figured rather than cutting it off, I'd grind away the back end of the carry handle.  It fits nice and snug, and I've painted it black since.   You wouldn't know it was modified if I didn't tell ya.

why does everyone insist on using remote lines, they look like **edited**

just use a 12 gram with an adapter, looks way better and keeps you and
your gun seperate

if u do it right u can put the 12 gram in a spot where u can barely see it,
looks sweet



i'm working on my friends 98 who is making a milsim marker, im using
some phantom parts and **edited** its gonna look sweeeet

Using a 12 gram co2 canister on a full size paintball marker....what planet did you come from?
