I have no idea why people buy this bulky expensive stocks for thier 98 or A-5. 1. You cant look down the top of your gun. 2. They get in the way while manuvering. 3. They'll cost you as much as your 98 did new! I have made my own solution by utilizing the holes under my grip for a stock and replacing my braided cable with a male adapter allowing my remoteline to literally 'jack into' my powertube. It works fine and cost me $15. http://img484.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dsc014459cq.jpg"> ------------- MajinKai |

It's not original. It's called a T-stock. I could give you a half dozen links to ones for the 98. I own one as well. You can still use a normal stock ANd sights if you have the right sight setup. ------------- "Abortion is not "choice" in America.

I never said my design is origonal. I'm really just showing off my handiwork. And I would love for you to show me what kind of setup allows you to see down the top of your gun using a full or CAR stock. And even if thier is something, how expensive is it? I spent $0 on this stock. on top of that the T-stocks your speaking of are not the same. They force you to hitch up your gun and hold it high up in order to see while having the stock against your shoulder. This stock lines up to your body like a full stock but is designed like a T-stock. ------------- MajinKai |

Offset rails? Thanks for resizing the sig too?  |

See the thing about offset rails is that your not truely aiming your gun. The offset can create problems when your aiming your gun at distant or short targets. It cant beat being able to aim straight down the top of your gun. ------------- MajinKai |

raised sight rails , and you can sight in your gun so it will work with offset ------------- [IMG]http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c128/sneaky_sniper/Invader_Zim.jpg"> |

The fact that there is no true aiming in paintball I dont see any point in sights anyhow. Wind effects a ball too much to be accurate reliably. |

What are you talking about?? You must not hit anything when you play... heh And yes, offsets can work but they are limited, expensive, and not very ergonomic. ------------- MajinKai |

Welcome to the Forum. Read the FAQs, and the rules please. The rulses for sigs are 350 pixels wide by 150 pixels tall. Please resize, or remove your sig. Good Day, Sir. -------------

Incorrect. a variety of T-stocks are available in all kinds of elevations. I have one that can be mounted at the same elevation as yours, though I've used it on my Overlord pistol. I have a Tippmann 98 with flatline. The sight mounted on top of the flatline gives it enough room for me to get my eye in there with the mask on. A raised sight rail would make it even easier. ------------- "Abortion is not "choice" in America.

SpecOps is for 1337 5n1p3r5, not real paintballers. You should know that.

I have nothing against SpecOps. They have some sick products. I just rather make a stock for nothing then spend $85 on a dogleg stock. There are people who smith there own stuff and there are people who buy things aftermarket. ------------- MajinKai |

Actually, after looking into it, you would say my stock is an L-stock. Similar to the common stock found on the legendary Phantom pump by CCI. Interesting... ------------- MajinKai |

Not a bad idea... I think this would make an interesting project trying to find out how to optimize the stock to properly apply this concept. If its this afforable, its worth a shot. ------------- Missing: 2nd star and 960+ posts to my name. -Another victim of the system. |

You want a stock that lets you see down the center of your gun? Go to http://www.specialopspaintball.com - www.specialopspaintball.com , select the Online Store. Now go to gun parts and upgrades, Tippmann guns, A-5 Parts/Upgrades, and select A-5 Stocks. You will find a very nice stock called the A-5 Dogleg Stock. This stock is designed specifically so you can look down the center of your gun without using a sight rail. They are also working on a 98 version. The stock is available in both right and left-handed versions (call for lefty version). I use a number of this company's products, and I can tell you that anything they make or put their brand on is good. They design stuff that they themselves would want to use. You might want to check out their stuff. |

I find the mask and hopper are more obstructive than the stock. Although i like the T stock -------------

forget the sights! just point the gun in the right direction and fire away. paintball will never hit the same spot twice even with a scope or sights. works good for me. |

sights do help your first shot accuracy a lot tho, it wont hit the exact point of aim, but it helps a lot ------------- [IMG]http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c128/sneaky_sniper/Invader_Zim.jpg"> |
