hey guys, how it going... right now i have a tippmann 98 custom w/ flatline and a 32* remote... however, i am looking to upgrade to a new, better, more effecient gun... i don't really wanna spend a lot of money because i just play wit the guys in a backyard, so, can you guys give me an idea of what to get ( i was looking at the a-5 because i like tippmann cusumer service, reliablity, and durability) note** any gun you name plz say the price, cons, and pro's for the gun... also add if it is nitrus ready or if i need to upgrade it inorder for nitrus to work at its full potential(the cons are the bad stuff and the pro's are the good stuff) THX SO VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY MUCH ------------- Tippmann 98 Custom Flatline Barrel System Pistol (james bond style) and i can still shoot further than ur 1500$ guns |

Fairly common misconception, but nitrous does not = nitro or HPA. I point this out so you don't make a fool of yourself on the field or in a shop. And yes, you can use an HPA(nitro) tank w/out any modifications provided that you get an HPA tank with a preset high output. 800-850 psi |

i say go with the A-5 but its efficency is less than greater. here are its pros and cons assuming its all stock.
pros capable of fast enough speeds. VERY upgradeable feels good easy to field strip easy to unstall upgrades durable/reliable has the graet tippmann customer service the cyclone is great(no need for a hopper,and granted your not low on paint and c02 it never skips or chops.) you canupgrade it to fit any style of play(milsim-scenario, flashy speedball, woods etc.) any cons it has can be fixed with upgrades you can improve your gun through virtually free trigger mods adjustable front grip cons bad efficency crapy stock barrel |

FlatlinePwnage I am your salvation, well not really but Ill try to help. All tippmans are great 1st guns and upgrade guns. So instead of forking over cash for an A-5 which is practicly a 98c and wasting money on speedball upgrades. So here's what you should get. 2004 BKO from Indian Creek $300-$330 Revolution 2 Hopper 68ci or 45ci 3000 psi tank BKO Pro's: Cheap, Fast, Upgradable, Dependable, Derlin Stock Bolt Con's: No as accurate as cockers Overall: This is the cheapest High end gun and with the right upgrades(Chaos chip, good barrel, new reg) this gun can compete with 1000$ dollar markers for half the price. Talking about BKO's is making me want one sooner than I can afford it.

98c-baller think of it, if you go onto a tournament field wit ur bushmaster, they'll all have boblongs and they'll make fun of you, but if u go there with an a-5 u get respect, no one will want to even play you in fear of getting beat by a gun that costs as much as their hoppers... ------------- Tippmann 98 Custom Flatline Barrel System Pistol (james bond style) and i can still shoot further than ur 1500$ guns |
