I got an A-5 becuse I heard about how accurate and fast they are, but when I shoot my paintballs they like corkscrew around... could this be a velocity or paintball problem or should I do something?

Is your barrel clean? Are you using 3 moth old paintballs?

velocity spikes, paint/barrel match, wind. Allot effects the accuracy of a paintball. Remember it's not a real gun and will never have the accuracy of a real fire arm. (well at least for the moment)

have you even used an A-5

14" is a good length ya...

anything longer (maybe not 16 but anything above that definitely) will just eat up gas and not really improve accuracy much. 16 is the limit, 14 is good.

I don't know how you are being truthful, you never stated why you hate the A-5. You act like it's the only gun that could have accuracy problems with a dirty barrel, bad paint or velocity problems(to answer the origional question) Stop typing in AOL shorthand and if you're going to dump on a product, give reasons.

the_ion of course i have used a a-5

And still you fail to state why an A-5 is a bad purchase.


Posted By: yesr
Date Posted: 12 January 2006 at 4:43am

right ok i think the a-5 is a bad purchase because its heavy the stock barrel is rubbish the cyclone feed dont even work and it is am utter complete air hogger

but thats my view soo



Posted By: hobojoe
Date Posted: 12 January 2006 at 12:01pm
How does the cyclone feed system not work? It really doesn't hog up much air, the cyclone is driven by mostly recycled air. You stated you liked every other gun but do you like the Factory F/A, it was kinda like an A-5 since it had an earlier version of the cyclone thing on it too.
