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.

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.

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.
