My 98 runs pretty smooth, I'm real happy with the set up and
consistancy, I love the palmer stabs on both. The A5 is
heavy, but I haven't had one single problem with it, and compared to
stripping down the 98, it's heaven - I will get the 98 pc'd
this winter. Not sure what happened to the custom98 site, but I
got lots of ideas from the folks there.

I agree with Mag-a-Man. the 98 is pretty sweet.

Thanks for the comments, like most people here, I'm not 'rich', some stuff I traded for, and for the rest I looked for good deals on e-bay/countypaintball, etc - the grips are from my son's Ion, he took my dye 03 stickies, I have parts from a BSI e-bolt and an GTA e-bolt, again from deals over the internet.

If you look closely at my tank cover right behind the grip in the 98C close up pic, you can see the top of the battery and the compartment I had modified by a seamstress using neoprene (diving suit material). Doesn't look as good as I wanted but it's on the back side of the cover so you don't really see it.

I love the 98. I'll probably (sp?) leave my 98 bare aluminum too, just something about it I really like.
what kind of drop is that?

Sorry, was gone for a week, the barrell is a dye ultralite, wish it was
only a 10" but a great barrel none the less, the drop is a PHAT drop,
as for the grips, I really like them, no cutting, they fit great.

i think that they both look bad ass i bet you win so many tournaments with those. I bet those are the best tippmanns i have ever seen that is a damn good job on suping them up.

man, i wish i lived in canada just so i could have those kick ass stickers..... The 98 is beastly. The A-5 is nice too. The next marker i buy is prolly going to be a Proshop 98c (the e-bolt package). I just love 98s so much....

I haven't played in any tourney's, mostly play with my son and friends,
and I agree, I've seen some players using pumps and bunkering guys with
$$$ markers, I have found it's important getting comfortable with
whatever you shoot, learning it's limits and ranges.
