It can if you want it to. Traditionally, more high-end guns like an angel would be considered a competition gun. ------------- http://img204.imageshack.us/my.php?image=260991706090alb8rs.jpg">

^^^Thats because scopes are useless in competition...
The a-5 can keep up with the big boys with a couple good ups. Comp LPK- Palmer Reg HPA-(low Pressure) E grip with double trigger probably JCS Boomstick (or freak kit, or evil pipe kit, what ever floats) Drop with on off...Thats about it. |

A stock A5 is not really, but add and E-grip, nitros, and a better barrel... you'll be good to go. ------------- Xs. A5, GTA; Flatline, Double Trigger, R/T, Tapco Stock, 32° Remote, Attitude Forum: meeting place or medium for discussion of matters of public interest. NOT INTERESTED? DON'T POST! |
