I think there should be the option to put a regular loader on a tippmann A-5 and should be able to take out the cyclone system. I know that the cyclone system is the main part of the A-5, but for speedball players like me, that huge neck on the side of the gun makes a great target sticking out for the other player. I mean if you try to stick your gun in so everything is hidding and just the barrel is sticking out, you can't do it beacuse of the neck sticking out of the side. ------------- A-5/E-grip/Low-pressure kit/PMI reg./smoke R-5 loader/12inch Dye Boomstick/92ci4500psi Crossfire tank/Flat double finger trigger/deadon drop foward adap./Dye cradle/Dye Airport |

You want to change the hopper or the Cyclone System? If you do a search, its been discussed 100's of times. ------------- Do not steal....the government hates competition!

Again, like I said before, this has been discussed several times, but Im going to tell you anyway because Im bored....the only way one could possibly have interchangeable hoppers fer the A5 is to remove the Cyclone Feed and modify a 98c elbow feed (refer to FOXDIE51 thread in the Marker Gallery) and bolt it to the body of the A5, this way you are able to use whatever ball agitating or force feeding hopper on the A5. ------------- Do not steal....the government hates competition!
