currently i have a tippmann a-5 with a flatline barrel and an exspasion chamber. iam looking for accuracy or a little bit more power. I have about 100 bucks. What upgrade would you consider me buying, Ive been thinking about the e grip which i can get for 65 bucks brand new,i heard that the r/s wasent worth the money is that true, and iam not intrested in buying any nitro tanks or anything, open for opinons, thank for the help |

Honestly, i would say go with r/t or e-grip. This will definitly improve your
bps and hitting ability if you know how to use it. ------------- A-5 Response Trigger DOP Blade Trigger Polished Internals X-Chamber Custom Paint 14" J&J |

if you don't want to get HPA then i wouldn't go with the egrip or the r/t. i would say get a stabilizer (its better than the xchamber)
*EDIT* I would go with the egrip over the r/t just b/c alot of places don't allow r/t and the egrip shoots faster and has more modes ------------- www.putfile.com/sockfootball21 |

If they haven't stopped them, EGrips should come stock with WAS boards. EGrips were originally a board and some other stuff designed by Tippmann, but the WAS is a replacement of the stock board that allows for more bps and modes and blah blah blah. If you buy the egrip, its likely you'll get the version with the WAS boards intact unless they stopped doing that. ------------- -Cobalt to White Sonic Cyborg --7 Piece Matchstik Kit ---White Suicide'd Halo B ----PMI Stubby w/ NXE Cover |

make sure you chrono your markers within 240-280fps to make them operate efficiently and within safe parameters. If your marker is shooting over 300fps, you can be jeopardizing the safety of your friends and decreasing the fun factor. Keep it safe and have fun. ------------- A5 Rfs Dwg triggr Ricochet R5 8"Lapco Bigsht/14"CP Classic Palmers Stab.

my A5 is set at 285fps. Now.. if i set my a5 at exactly 300fps, will it shoot any farther? will it loose accuracy? i know it'll hurt my target a little bit more..but i'm the only one out of my woodsball buddies who's A5 marker is set below 300fps and i want revenge! i want to bump it up to exactly 300 as long as it won't affect performance(in a negative way) but will enhance the fun for me. ------------- A5 E-trigger x-chamber APP Monster Sight Feeder 14" Lapco Snapshot barrel |

If your a woodsball player, I would personally suggest the RT over the Egrip. If it rains when your playing, it can really mess up your Egrip.

It uses a gas cylinder to push the the trigger back into firing position very rapidly.
