I would like to tell you guys what I already have on my A-5, and you tell me what else needs upgrading.  Now, having said this, I don't want Nitro/HPA and I don't want a Palmer's.  Other than that, everything is up for discussion.

My setup:

A-5 w/ Polished Internals, Trinity Spring Kit, Rufus Dawg Wicked Bolt, Dead On RVA, E-Grip, GTA Double Trigger, GTA X Chamber, Shocktech Drop Forward, Smart Parts Inline On/Off, Tapco T-6 Adjustable Stock, 32* Remote Line, 12" GTA "Sniper" Barrel, 12" Lapco Bigshot, 16" Stiffi, Flatline, Tac-Cap, and 2 Pure Energy 20 Oz CO2 Tanks.

Now obviously, some of the parts listed can't be used in conjunction with one another, but I do change my setup as the game style requires.

you sould also buy a red dot sight and an offset sight rail also

ummm and a remote

Yea, that trigger does look nice.  I already have a remote line, but rarely use it.  I don't want a red dot sight because if it gets hit with a paintball, it will most likely damage it (plus I like to use optics strictly on real guns because there is no point in it in paintball.  there just isn't enough accuracy).  Any word on the quality of that hopper that was mentioned?  I am very interested in the sight rail because I would love to use my stock in actual play instead of just plinking around (without mask).

edit:  What exactly does an anti- syphon do?

Anti-syphon is a tube that is inserted into your tank that eliminates any liquid CO2 from entering your gun.

The R-5 hopper is nice. It holds a little less rounds than the regular hopper even though it's advertised as being able to hold more. It's loud too when you start getting low on paint. It's mostly for looks.

Looks huh?  Not too much for form over function.  How much would it run me to anti syphon both of my tanks?

^^You can buy the actual tube for around 6-7 bucks each. Now I'd suggest that you get them installed by your proshop, so that might cost a little extra.

Well that sounds like it is right up my alley.  Would it defeat the purpose of the X Chamber completely or would that still help?

Both is better. The combo of A/S CO2 tanks and an X-Chamber should do an awesome job of keeping the liquid out of your gun.
