Very good idea, simple, but i still dont understand the point of taccaps...

Edit: your gun needs a paintjob badly.

No, I was going to do it in tigerstripe camo...  Yes, I know tigerstripe is ugly, but it's easy to do and it's different.

You should try the digital camo. It's stickied in upgrades and customizing. Just a suggestion...

This is similar to what i did. Yea this is a great idea. Tac caps reduce the "bulk" of your paintgun in A-5's. The drawback is you can only carry 50-30 rounds (like a real gun). So you'll have to reload more often than with say the 200 round hopper.
