Decide what you don't like about your gun, or what you would like it to do better, then fix that. If that means modifing your gun, fine. If it means buying a flatline or whatever else, cool.
Just don't ask us what WE think you should get for your gun. It is your gun after all. ------------- Watch your thoughts they become words Watch your words they become actions Watch your actions they become habits Watch your habits they become character Watch your character it becomes your destin |

the only thing you can really get is the x-chamber or a low pressure system but im not sure if they have those for A-5. ------------- Snipers Dominate 98c 16 inch Rifled Barrel Red dot sight Soon: Low pressure system Shoulder stock |

If you have CO2 now Nitro is a nice upgrade. CO2 will shoot ur ball but you never know how much pressure ur gettin unless you have a regulator. Nitro will keep the ball within a few inches with the same pressure. -------------

ok i am thnking about getting the low pressure system, but do u have to
use nitro with it cause i already have a bunch of c02 tanks and nitro
tanks are so expensive, but what is a X-chamber i have never heard of
it before.

yes. DO NOT buy a LPK without using nitro. X-chamber allows C02 to expand before it enters the gun so u don't get "liquid spikes." i personally think its pointless unless u playing outside in the winter while every1 else is at indoor. Also, in the winter, nitro is a lifesaver. ------------- A-5 E-Grip JCS Trigger Flatline (woodsball only) 14" Ultralite Car Stock (woodsball only) R-T (not installed) Shocktech Gas-thru Grip Macro-Line NW Drop Forward 68/4500 Nitro Duck Xstream |

Do not buy a low pressure kit anyway. For $120 you could get something nice and something that improves your gun. Even if you do have comp air, don't get one. Well maybe, just maybe if you saw one for $2.50 but then you could also get an icecream cone. Good upgrade might be a HPA tank or some new soft gear. Get some new gloves, mask, pants, what ever you want. ------------- http://img204.imageshack.us/my.php?image=260991706090alb8rs.jpg">

only problem is the fact that the c02 is screwing around with me and
some friends have told me that the LPK is alot better

The low pressure kit is not bad, it is just that it is not good. What I am saying is, it is not woth the money, not even close. http://www.firstcallpaintball.com - www.firstcallpaintball.com http://www.pbgear.com - www.pbgear.com http://www.paintballgateway.com - www.paintballgateway.com One of those websites is bound to have a xchamber with a price next to it. ------------- http://img204.imageshack.us/my.php?image=260991706090alb8rs.jpg">

they are about $20-30 get a 6 stage or above. ok what an expansion chamber does is convert the liquid co2 to gas co2 faster than usual so you shoot with the gas instead of the liquid co2. this means that you will have more consistent velocity, and you can get more shots of a tank. it is also better for your gun. ------------- if it moves it becomes a target.

Palmers Stablizer because it can handle Co2 and HPA if you decide to go there in the future. You pay a little more and you get alot more. Plus, it looks really nice in different colors on A-5's. ------------- A-5 Response Trigger DOP Blade Trigger Polished Internals X-Chamber Custom Paint 14" J&J |
