| Woodsball or Speedball? You have to give us just a tiny bit of info. Most upgrades are personal preferance though. That means that the best set-up for an A-5 is whatever you think is the best. |

In the end you should have, A flatline or a bigshot maybe 10-14'', E-grip, wit r/t, and a compressed air system or regulator, drop down, e.t.c. something to help with the co2

Best woods set-up I can think of if money wasnt a problem. Taken from http://www.specopspaintball.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=71 - http://www.specopspaintball.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPRO D&ProdID=71 I'd change the barrel and add an HPA tank, and R/T, but that would be pretty sweet.

| 12" Lapco Bigshot, DOP X-Core 8 Stage Expansion Chamber, egrip or r/t, 12v revvy or Eggy2. Everything else is personal preference. You could get a drop forward, RVA, rocket cock, stock, scopes, pretty much anything. |

Flatline or Bigshot, E-Grip, HPA... That would do it for me. |

oooo no he said he plays sniper a position on a team, either ambusing or flanking the other team. He must be a noob because of his 6 inch barrel and he thinks with it he can shot 1234503496093658 feet, doesn't he know that all barrels shot about the same distance excluding the flatline. ------------- Can't sleep forums will eat me |

the e-grip is only if you plan on playing tourneys. Apart from that the rt kit is cheaper, just as fast, and takes less effort to use well. I personally do not like the flatlines, but that is personal opinion. Get a barrel kit instead. I like the double trigger but that is also personal opinion. I believe you should have the r-5 loader and some form of x-chamber. If you are using co2, it makes you more consistent; if you are using HPA, it can help drop off. I also recomend the shocktech superfly bolt; they really do make a difference. Do not get the DOP powertube. Stocks are pointless except for looks. Learn to shoot without using the sights. ------------- Everybody needs a mech cocker. They are just so smooth and sexy; not like those 5 sec robo jobs. |

Compactor, IMHO.
If they had put out a true electro kit, the A-5 could have been a world-beater ... Ah, those lost opportunities ... ------------- If I flee, kill me If I die, avenge me |

how is tuning the r/t and finding the sweet spot easier than replacing the grip and holding down the trigger? -------------

flatline, egrip, jcs duel trigger, spec ops air through stock and toombstone, palmer stabalizer, remote, 68/4500 crossfire tank, some sort of red dot sight, r-5 hopper, camo paint job, maby spec ops A5-A2 for-grip or an opsgear raider flatline shroud, maby a laser sight/bi pod/ flashlight. o yea, people on this forum dont like the s word, dont use it or be flamed a million times or open up another 14 page argument like i did so long ago... search the sniper topic on upgrades and customizing. ------------- A-5 Flatline E-Grip Tapco T-6 stock JCS Duel Trigger JCS Universal BiPod Core Remote 88ci/4500psi Crossfire R-5 Hopper Apex Barrel Hot Shot red dot Lapco offset Spec Ops A5-A2 grip |
