Stock 98 is more accurate then stock a-5. But then you have pros and cons for each. You have speed with the A-5 then you have accuracy and weight with the 98. Slap on a good barrel and the A-5 is Grrrreat. I suggest shooting them all someone how before you buy one. ------------- Black 05 Shocker Halo B Crossfire 68/45 --Coming Soon-- Dynasty Board NDz Bolt |

Actually, I don't really suggest the 98 because once you get it, a year later your gonna want another kind of gun. -------------

| Of all the markers I've seen, the 98c is the one with the most options. You can start off easy and decide if you like the sport. I've seen 98c packages for $165 that can get you started. Folks are always going to be out there looking for a marker when they start, so you can sell to them if you want out or upgrade if you stay... |

Going A-5 would be a wise choice. You can start with it, grow with it, and deck it out to professional grade (or near pro. grade). Plus, it basically comes with its own high-grade hopper right out of the box (cyclone system). It's served me well so far, and I've played on every basic type of field/arena (woodsball, speedball, indoor scenerio). In the long run, the A-5 will pay off. ------------- >X - CORTANA 1 0 CRYOSTOR. 23.4.7 >(PRIORITY ALPHA) >UNSEAL THE HUSHED CASKET |

98C cuz they are really tough. Great starter guns and they have many upgrades. Plus if they quit playing that can be your back up gun. |

I say Price range people Price range, if u got like 180 go tes, can rip
17(although it claims 20 it cant without a new bolt and a new trigger
and switch). Very good gun. Tippmanns are fine but if u want somthing
that will get you some attention and you can play speedball with go Tes
