Here's my Tippmann A5. Here are the mods: Tippmann E-trigger Tippmann Flatline barrel Dead on Paintball Bullet Drop forward 5525 Dead on Paintball X-Core Expansion chamber Dead on Paintball Rear velocity adjuster Dead on Paintball Vertical Adaptor Dead on Paintball A5 Grip adaptor Dead on Paintball Double trigger I'm in the process of getting Camo paint from Opsgear, once I get it I'll paint every component with a woods green, tan and brown camo scheme. I forgot to mention that with all of these mods, it's put on a couple of pounds. I haven't weighed it yet but it's between 8 and 10lbs. The weight doesn't matter but the the gun is really consistent now. http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y13/Nishanu/IMG_0047.jpg  ------------- Keep it simple and play hard!!! |

I've read about the JCS trigger. That might be a
consideration down the line. Thanks for the comments and
recommendations.

That gun is definatly hot. But like the rest said to get all you can out of the E-Grip you'll need that JCS trigger.
Otherwise props to you on a very nice gun. ------------- A-5 E-Grip JCS Dual Trigger DOP X-CORE 8 stage x-chamber Lapco Bigshot 14" Beadblasted Optional setup: R/T Dead on Blade trigger |

Lose the flatline and drop ASAP! Get the JCS trigger, Freak Kit, and a black Macro Line you'll be set. -------------

HPA is definitely a mod that I will definitely add later down the road
and since I already have the Vertical Adoptor it shouldn't cost
too much.

The DOP products were more of a convenience choice since a buddy of
mine sells the products for cheap. As far as the Flatline is
concerned, since I just got it I have no intentions of replacing
it. This stuff is not cheap and I have to save up and throw down
the bones myself. Anyway, I appreciate the comments and
recommendations.

| Your gun bears striking resemblance to mine except for the flatline and verticle adapter. I was thinking about getting the virticle adapter. Is it really worth the money you spend on it? I have the same x-chamber and drop IReally like those but I cant get my thumb in between the trigger frame and my x-cahmber. Which makes me sad becasue i may have to get rid of my foregrip on its 90 degree adapter block. I really like your gun 9/10 just the question about the verticle adapter. |

One of the reasons I got the Vertical adaptor was mainly because of
clearance issues with the expansion chamber and the Drop.
It was too tight with the Drop I had chosen. Other than that
there is no performance difference. When I bought my Tippmann one
of the things that attracted me to it was the amount of mods for this
gun. I didn't want to buy a gun and then say that I've out grown
or rather my needs have changed and then buy another gun. I don't
have the time nor the money to flip flop. That's another reason
for the Vertical is that I can always upgrade to HPA later down the
road. What I have found is that the X-chamber makes the gun
really consistent.
