hey i just got an a5. im wondering what parts to buy for it. im gonna use it for woodsball so today im ordering a flatline. ive got a couple questions about palmer stabalizers. 1-do i need a vertical adapter to use the PS, and 2-will the PS be more consistant than a x-chamber with co2?. im thinking a unimount and macroline is also in order. let me know what u think. -------------

Stabilizer is better than x-chamber for any use. If you get a male Stab, you can stick it straight in the tombstone, which is a vertical adapter. Nothing extra needed. Flatline is good - if your local fields allow RT, I would also suggest that. If you get either RT or E-Grip, I would also suggest nitro (although the Stabilizer will help).

i found a stoch and a remote vastly omproved the feal and looks of my a-5 not to mention my manuverability and sot to shot accuracy. as for the ebolt if you get one you cant run with a stock but what goot is rate of fire if you cant hit ------------- Tipp A-5 Opsgear Saw Shroud Opsgear G36 Folding Stock 16" j&j |

um, go with e-grip they're over-all better and also, r/t isn't always legal and for waht like 30 extra bucks you can change the rate of fire :-) ------------- Tippmann A-5 -E-Grip -Unimount -32* Remote -Blade Trigger -Redz Harness -Flatline Barrel -Palmers Stabalizer Fund: 117/680 |

ya ^^ dont forget its done with a allen wrench but u can still do it, the RT is faster but since its and a5 and the cyclone only feeds about 15bps either way well it doesnt matter, unless u kill ur cyclone and put a force feed hopper on there and then u would see a differnece in the two ------------- |

^^^ if you do that, wouldn't you basically have a tippmann 98c or model 98? kinda defeats the purpose of the all good cyclone feed! ------------- Tippmann A-5 -E-Grip -Unimount -32* Remote -Blade Trigger -Redz Harness -Flatline Barrel -Palmers Stabalizer Fund: 117/680 |
