Aight so I just got paid right, and I want to upgrade some sh!t on my A-5. I don't want to get the e-grip (I dont need to shoot that fast anyways) I already got a response trigger, and I already got a couple good barrels. Now this is what I was thinking Double Trigger + Bullet Drop (w/ adapter block) Im definitly getting those but I was wondering about a Gas Thru Grip... First of all, the air hose on the gun seems like it would be a bit long once I got the drop forward, and I read on paintballgear.ca that you need other parts to fully install the gas through grip properly. So If I bought this grip, how would I install it? AND Will my hose length be a problem (If you know the answer please tell me 1. With the gas-thru grip and 2. Where the hose comes stock on the A-5) THANKS |

I followed it... I'd get yourself a double trigger, and the DoP drop is excellent, I have one. Also, an expansion chamber for your r/t. DoP makes the x-core, it's nice. |

a plamer reg. is the best bet, but the expansion chmaber is also good, and it much cheaper ------------- |

ok i went out and bought a double trig and a dropforward by shocktech (dont need the adapterblock) and it all fits in nicely and all think i should look into an x-core? (i dont know much about it yet though) |

yes you should look into it. it will (for the most part) keep your gun from freezing up when you go crazy and rip on the r/t. There isn't much to know about the x-core except it will probably require a new hose. Your proshop can help you with that. |

well i found this regulator this guy had for his 2k2 timmy and hes selling it with the guage, its for low pressure, but its only at like 15 bucks right now.... maybe i will look into the LP kit... speaking of which, tippmann says that their guns work best at 325psi output, anyone know of a tank that gets around there? i checked out 3A-Paintball.com but their tanks only go as low as 450 or somethin |
