did the PCS US-5 come out before the A5??? I'm hoping so. Because i just saw this bootleg gun in a magazine and swore they copied the A5, minus the cyclone feed only because it's patented. wtf? Does Tippmann manufacture this PCS US-5 or something?

It is a knock-off of the A5. PCS makes it. Luckily, Tippmann patented the cyclone. ------------- Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good. |

lol. Watch your attitude, it won't get you far here :P Just seach befor doing this kind of stuff. And yes, it's a complete nockoff, but technically the a-5 only looks the way it does because of the mp5-k :P ------------- Tippmann A-5 Polished Internals E-Grip Ape Board JCS Blade Trigger QEV 8" Bigshot + Apex Ricochet R-5 / Tac Cap Palmers Stabilizer 68/4500 Crossfire |

Looks like they spent their money on legal fees to see how far they could go without having to spend money on R&D. Can't blame them for trying to be business savy. Just too bad the laws aren't stricter. It's like Tullies opening up a store whereever Starbucks does. Just let Starbucks do the R&D research on profitable locations. |
