No and No. Get the B2K4. It's a way better speedball marker than the A-5. It's faster, doesn't have the cyclone, and already has a 2x trigger. As for the barrel. Get the AA. ------------- http://www.macdev.net - MacDev Militia http://www.alienpb.com - Alien - Because winning is more fun. |

You will regret buying the A-5 in a couple of months, it could never keep up with a b2k. ------------- I wand to buy an ION Second place in Young Gunz Tourny Div.3 Ambush paintball, surrey, bc, canada |

Not sure what a slide-on gun grip is.
Everything else seems fine. I prefer Lapco over the AA (I have both), but whatever floats yer boat... they're both good barrels. You'll be fine with that setup. I personally don't buy into the hype about one gun "keeping up" with another. People seemed to have forgotten about the whole concept of "skill". The B2K4 would have a higher ROF, but unless higher ROF is your only goal... then I ask "so what?". My Timmy has the ability to shoot faster than my E-gripped A-5... but deciding what gun to use for a game typically depends solely on my mood... not on what gun "performs better". In my hands, they both perform the same. If you weren't able to buy a decent HPA system anyway, then sticking with the A-5 would have been in your best interest regardless. Skimping out on an HPA system by purchasing a smaller tank isn't a worthwhile option. If you're going to buy an HPA tank... get a good one. You're not going to want to spend your time waiting in line at the fill station after every game. E-gripped A-5 is fine. Whatever you decide to put on it is personal preference. |
