It has actually been so long since I posted anything on this forum, I had to re-modify my user name.  In any case, my friend doesn't know I am posting a pic of his A-5 (he doesn't even know I took a pic of it yet)...  Obviously, the barrel is his first major upgarde, but when speaking of Tippmanns (such as the A-5), the performance is great no matter what. 

Oh yeah... once again... my Phantom (it's been a while since I was here - so why not post it again).  But more importantly, show my buddy some support for his A-5, "exceletante."

Very nice looking A-5, he should look into a stock though, it would look more complete.

Nice Phantom too!

They're both pretty awesome.  I'd suggest a remote line on the A-5 though.

I appreciate the feedback.  I think at this point, he is happy with his A-5 setup, he is used to using the tank as a stock itself... however, that may change in the future - I appreciate all feedback/the feedback. 

 As for my bottle setup for my Phantom - let's just say I enjoy having the choice to go back bottle, Hawaiin style (or to use both just to be weird).

True...  Of course, that's what happens when you usualy use it on a speedball field... it's all good.  Speaking of which, that's where I'm off to in about an hour.

is the   BT-16 A-5 Barrel kit good?

While on the field earlier this morning with my friend, he certainly had no complaints...  (With good/fresh paint), he had never got a barrel break (knock on wood), and that was with the stock barrel.  He is certainly happy with the BT-16 barrel for his A-5.  He told me that there is a more noticable, positive difference when comparing range from the stock barrel.  As for the accuracy, it seems to hover around the same than with the stock (with good/fresh paint), but the range definitely increased - a wise choice if you would ask my friend.
