i think that would suck. the only reason the a-5 is "better" than the 98c is because of the cyclone, thered b no difference otherwise. n plus its a gas hog and iver heard tons of crap about the cyclone breakin balls n whatnot

I still dont understand why people are still callin the cyclone a gas hog...it uses excess blow back gases/air to operate.

^ you are an idiot. Don't say anything your not sure of. If you use a let's say 9 ounce tank the cyclone will take maybe 20 shots out of it to operate or maybe even less.

You shouldn't talk about things YOU don't know.

The A-5 does NOT use any extra gas other than the gas that is normally wasted during normal firing.

Ok, enough of that crap!....the idea of having the cyclone on a 98c has been done by others besides Tippmann themselves which led to the F/A which is a 98c wit the Cyclone Feed and there is pic of one in the Marler Gallery....but as mentioned before...SEARCH, cus that the only way yer gonna find it.

the F/A wasnt a 98, it was one of the first fully automatic paintball guns on the market. it looked more like a pro carbine than a 98.

A5, egrip, cp barrel kit, check it asa, etc

Correct.  The F/A came out way before the 98 or procarb.  It came out after the pro lite.  Also, it didn't use air to operate.  It used spring power.

I wouldn't venture out there fellas. This sniper's got talent.

My A-5 gets more shots off a 20oz than my friends 98. 

And whoever said the cyclone chops balls like crazy, that is so not true.  I have yet to chop with my A-5 acept for one shot yesterday I put my stock barrel on, I was using wild streak and I choped every shot.  I was like what the crap so I took my barrel off to squegee it and the squegee wouldn't pull through, so I washed it out in the sink and when I had all the paint out I looked through the barrel and there was a piece of metal sticking into the barrel about half way through it, I got that out and started shooting again and wa la no chops.

Maybe they need a script that checks your post count: if it is really low, then before they can post a message it asks them if they have tried searching.

me and my friend were using wild streak in our t98's and the stuff sucks, the shell is so thing that it pops real easy

 

also you with the cyclone on the t98, have you posted pictures or a how-to? that would be cool
