This is my kit. Just started it not too long ago. Tell me what you guys think and what I should get for my next upgrades. I already know I am getting an X-chamber so what after that?? Thanks.

Look into a raised sight rail, Egrip, and Palmer's. Looking good so afr, keep it up! ------------- Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good. |

Thanks guys, and by the way I was lookin at this sight raiser and I'm pretty sure im going to get it. I already have the handle mount but only need the raiser. This is pretty much the only one I could find w/out getting a carry handle. I just don't think a handle will look too good on my gun. Has anyone seen any other riser mounts besides this one? Thanks. And OOshanis, I do like my gun a lot and plan on keeping it. I was just fed up w/ other markers that weren't reliable so I had to get a Tippmann.

Thats a great sight rail if you already have the handle mount.
I'd recommend getting a 20mm weaver raised sight if you want to go another route. They have them all over like at OPSGear, SpecialOPs, and RAP4. They have a 20mm see-thru sight rail but it's pretty useless since you can't see that low with a mask on. The thing is, with any sight rail you are going to have to mill off the top of your gun since the rail is supposed to fit on a weaver setup. Granted the larger rail at the top of the tippy fits the width no problem. When I say mill...I mean figure out where you want the rail first, then file off the exact position where the screws with touch the gun. I'll have pics up later to show what I mean, but if you already know what I mean then I won't. As for other such upgrades follow what people have been recommending. Great start! Keep it up.

| i would sell the sight because it's useless once u get paint all over it. u'll spend more time cleaning it than looking through it. forget the x-chamber they dont work and use the money u saved on the useless ups and go hpa.think practicle. try not to heavy up ur gun. i'm 36 and been playing a long time.i have alot of junk laying around that i wasted money on. i'd hate to see others do the same as i did. |

I just realized this. You have Custom Pro style recievers(With the sticker) but it says "98 CUSTOM". Is this a new, cheaper way that Tippy is making things, or did I miss something? -------------

looks like what i was originally gonna buy befor deciding to get the a-5 instead. I like it, but I dunno about the stock. Don't waste money on an x-chamber either.

Get an Hpa tank if you can Refer http://www.pbreview.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=19206 - here for the amount of shots per tank. OR Do this but it still wont be as good as HPA http://www.pbreview.com/forums/showthread.php?p=3519285#post3519285 - Anti siphon your tank Ither buy a palmers stabilizer or if you cant afford that get a wgp ergo reg for like 25-30 (can buy on pbn/pbr forums cheap i got mine for 23 shipped) and dont worry about the sight rail till later |

Ok, thanks for all the info. And by the way, for those people who want to know about how the MR1 works, I personally don't like it. It is VERY loud and chops a ton. But its worth $100. I think Spyder put all their time and efforts into making it look like a decent gun and didnt spend enough time on performance. It is pretty much imposible to put a red-dot sight on it as well because of such a small area to put the sight between the hopper and the top cocking knob.
(sorry about the background stuff) -------------
