All my friends have been getting tricked out a-5's (or acessories
to make there gun tricked out with nice flatline barrells) for x-mas.
Now. I was wondering of another brand besides tippmann that makes a gun
specifically for sniping . Im not saying a A-5 is bad for sniping
but i was wonderiing if there was a higher quality sniper out
there.
I was also was wondering if tippmann is making a new marker to replace the a-5 any time soon.

Please edit your post by removing the term "sniper". Most people around here seem to have a problem with that word, so it would be in your best interests and the interests of all other parties involved if you would cease use of the term "sniper".
Now that that's out of the way, in response to your question, go with the A-5. The Flatty is a fine barrel if you're looking to do some long-range shooting. And about a new Tippmann gun, I'm not too sure. You'll have to wait and see what other people say to that one.

I would look into a M40A1, or M24 sniper rifle. Maybe even a Mosin Nugant...

Tippy w/ Flatty = as close to "sniper" as you will get. Now run along and never mention that word again...

Yes i agree with you, as long as he's not shooting at me . Noobs and their love of the word "sniper", what a hideous site.

Just put it this way, You do get a good shot in paintball sometimes(Hiding and jumping out of brush) and thats as close to sniper as you will EVER get in paintball
Personally I perfer the 98 over the A5 only because it is lighter, but the best barrell for 'sniping' would be the flatty or Apex I perfer the apex only because it is less paintpicky, adjustable and has double the distance

if you want to get yelled at, keep the word "sniper" in your topic. But if you want to be nornal remove and people will answer your question.

That is an AGD Tac-One with a big ass Freak on it. A thousand bucks just so you can go to your field and get laughed at/bunkered by people with normal guns.

In that case why did you feel the need to let everyone know your old name and post count. If you think by being here longer than somebody else you then have the right to talk trash about them then I am sorry to tell you but...
IT DOES NOT.
That is all.
