Definatly not completed, but I couldn't wait to post it.    -Custom 98 -Flatline barrel -Adjustable stock -Cyclone feed -30mm BSA Reddot scope (not plastic) -Heavy duty laser site -3 point Sling (not attached) -*Edit* Sorry I forgot to attach the remote also I know I need and plan on getting: -Expasion chamber -Response Trigger -Would love a new barrel tip if I could figure out that its possible to remove the old one and mount the new. -Would love a false clip for if I knew It was possible. Thanks for any comments  -------------

I love the cyclone...I know I was only using the stock hopper, but it
would skip a ball here and there when firing fast...since the cyclone
it hasn't missed a beat.

| That gun looks terrific! I love the cyclone. In addition to the R5, I think you should get a regulator instead of an expansion chamber. |

Yea I am really considering the R-5 now that thing looks cool and its
pretty cheap, and I like the fact that its padded inside of it to quiet
the paintballs...I hate running around sounding like a gumball machine

| Yes you can actually remove the barrel tip. Just twist it back and forth for a while and it the just slides off. Any ideas on a good replacement to quiet even further? |

Personally I am not a fan of that kind of look. I feel that it makes the gun altogether too long. If I had a 98custom, I am not sure if I would put a cyclone on it or not. I might opt for a Ricochet ak Apache attack loader, so light.
Although an R-5 would add the deflection and sleeker. I mean, it really looks like a "98sniper" with a cyclone and lazer. I've seen plenty of 98snipers with red dots and such so its pretty much got a cyclone to set it apart. I would reccomend a regulater over x-chamber. The palmer stabilizer(male) actually with a verticle adapter of course. A r/t sounds real good. If you added those two items it would perform well and still have the looks. Bottom line, not really my cup of tea but with a little lovin I think it could be king/queen of the woods. |

Pretty sweet setup, if you see my avvy thats what im makin my a-5 look like, i was just wondering, is the r-5 electronic along with the cyclone for quicker feeding, i wouldnt think so but i been wondering for a long time. ------------- Tippmann A-5 Psycho Ballistics Double Trigger A-5 E-Grip (tweaked and resoldered) Lapco Bigshot 12 inch Barrel Remote (Brand unknown) Soon to come: G36c Scenario kit Nitrogen |

No, the R-5 is a replacement hopper that has sleeker cuts to deflect paintballs more and has padded insides to reduce rattle and I guess most people just think it looks cooler Here is a link so you can check one out. http://cgi.ebay.com/Ricochet-R5-Sniper-Hopper-for-Tippmann-A5-Black-NEW_W0QQitemZ7173859712QQcategoryZ71157QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem - http://cgi.ebay.com/Ricochet-R5-Sniper-Hopper-for-Tippmann-A 5-Black-NEW_W0QQitemZ7173859712QQcategoryZ71157QQssPageNameZ WDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem -------------

Thanks...The laser is good for when the sun is going down you can't see it when it is bright out....it's also good for intimidation they suddenly see a red dot on them and realize they are about to get hit, but have no idea where it is coming from so they don't know where to hide  -------------
