Ya you'll like it fine but have you tried the stock with your mask on and then used the sights?  I had that problem

hehe dint think fo that one lol. i can see how id have a problem there tho. i dont have a scope, just old style sights. i dont have to actually put my eye up to those, like i would with a scope. the stock is prolly for shooting standing up, which i wount be doing mutch of prolly... i should see how i like it though after one game, and that will b in 5 days! (if the damn ppl ship it by then)

 

thnx for your reply though

It is a crime against nature to say that evil word on this forum. Most people go ballistic, like "omg looak at teh noob, he sez teh sniper"

Yes, I have that word in my name. Some may call it "rebelling," but I don't believe in "snipers". I play Speedball, and laugh at/bunker anyone who thinks they are a leet "sniper."

Have a nice day.

The only way to be a sniper is to have the super chrominium barrel. It shoots over 500 ft and never misses.

But you can't buy it, you have to be a plattium member here to get it.

Nope. cda and I were not messing with you. The Super Chromium will fit an A-5. Just be careful of the threads; they can be kinda sharp.

let the poor guy call it whatever he wants, and if you want to get technical...wouldn't the correct term be longballing?

I bet you all went through that phase in your PB careers, unless you started at a really old age or somthing

An A-5 is a good choice because it is fairly fast and is acurate, however dont use sniping because its paintball and paintball guns are not even close to being as acurate as a gun that fires bullets, even in an experianced players hands.

The Definition of "snipe" in the M-W dictionary is
Main Entry: 2snipe
Function: intransitive verb
Inflected Form(s): sniped; snip·ing
1 : to shoot at exposed individuals (as of an enemy's forces) from a usually concealed point of vantage
2 : to aim a carping or snide attack
- snip·er noun
there for to be a sniper you must shoot from a cocealed postions(i.e. Ambush). this is to my experince a viable tactic. notice how being a sniper doesn't invole long range. about the topic of the fourm i think that you should lose the flat line barrel because it will reveal your position by sound.

i think you should have followed pb125's advice 3 posts above and turn your caps lock off.

98 custom or A-5? get the A-5. unless its a money thing. both are fine choices

98c/w ups > A-5 w/ ups

That's just my opinion though.

yeah, they are both great choices, its really hard to say which it better. both are reliable, capiable of shooting fast, 98 a little faster, lots of ups. either or, who knows. just make it a tippmann and its a good choice.

pirate, i like your pink rabbit
