how can people give you remarks if you only have 1 post that was this? there isnt any difference exept the shape.the front is smaller so less hits on it. |

If you want a stealthier look and less of a target on the fron of your hopper, then the R5 is good. Other than that, there isnt a difference. ------------- Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good. |

30 more I think.. Its a nice design but is made out of cheap materials and breaks rather easily. -------------

id get it if i were you. its extremely easy to get hopper hits on the
a5 hopper. i kno, i shot a guy in the hopper and he didnt notice for
like 5 minutes. then started swearing as the ref called him out. the R5
atleast allows for bounces
