A tippmann w/flatline/stock is a completely woodsball marker. The 03 cocker is a totally speedball markers. And the wgp pump is very, very accurate and can get a high rate of fire for a pump. That is great marker and can also be turned into a semi by buying a penuamatics kit. ------------- You call the Eagle, Eagle does the rest. |

nope, but its expensive, you have to buy pneus for it, its alot easier to buy an 03 and then buy a pump kit, because then you already have the pneus, and a hinge trigger frame. i wouldnt recomend stocks for markers, they just get in the way and add weight to the gun. |

Armotech did not change to ariakon. Ariakon is a completely different company.(as you can see me name) and the zues is not produced by ariakon. Ariakon is coming out with a pistol around christmas time. The zues is great but I heard that if you get like a speck of dirt in the gun it will ****. But otherswise its a great pistol. There great for close combat. But cant hit **edited** at longer range. ------------- You call the Eagle, Eagle does the rest. |

Figure out what game you want to play woodsball or speedball...then decide... A-5 for woods, Cocker for speed ------------- http://www.freewebs.com/outlawspaintball/index.htm - Outlaws *Sponsors* http://www.abrika.ca - Abrika |

Armotech LCC changed to ariakon but was a different company then armotech.us. They make different(but similar looking) markers and are too totally separate company. If you read the whole agreement between the 2 companys(they had a legal issue because they had similar names and the were online fights and bashing eachother but is all resolved now) and you would figure it all out. ------------- You call the Eagle, Eagle does the rest. |

seriously, i'm not just saying this because i have an a-5... my friend has a cocker and i must say, its nice. but what it does is speedball, and it does it very well. an a-5 is what ppl would call a woodsball gun, and it is. it does that very well. BUT an a-5 can also be a serious speedball competitor. with the proper upgrades it can hold its ground pretty well. i'd go with the a-5 just because of the tippmann durability, plus it's versatile. |
