Ok well, I have an
Now my friends are going in on a bulk deal for 3 nitros @ 72 ci/3000 psi for 170$ (Pure energy), so dont suggest that. My real question is what do I need to be a quiet. I don't necessarily want to snipe, its more to have a quiet gun/accurate that wont give me away when im trying to run/shoot across the field. The J&J is very quiet, so dont its not really worth suggesting. I think that Nitro will help with being accurate but, will a
I don't want to go remote, im going to invert my tank to keep it more compact because I play dagger/Sabre, but I want a bit more consistancy with my shots. |

I would suggest a firepower upgrade, like a RT or E-grip. Its really up to you, what do you think that your gun needs? What don't you like about it? After you answer that question, you will know what to buy. -------------

It's a Tippmann. It wont ever be quiet, especially the A-5s (because you can't put E-bolts on them, and an Ebolt with an LPK is pretty damn quiet) |

heres an idea be like me get an r/t or and egrip and then get a 8in
bigshot make your gun louder... most ppl feel like i have made the
first full auto canon *edit* and get ups that will make the most difference for your buck like dont buy a new bolt cuz you wont see a difference save that money and the money for that bipod and you will maybe have enough for an r/t and with a r/t u will actually see a difference of about 8-10bps  ------------- Tuesday starts the weekend... YAYAYA!!!! CHUFF CHUFF |

You're going to be heard regardless. All Tippmanns are loud by nature. The only bolt I'd suggest is the Rufus Dawg Wicked bolt. Besides that, stock internals are best. Bipods are a hassle and not worth it. Inverted tanks are kind of a hassle. Just look into a remote line. I would say look into a Palmer's male Stabilizer and some sort of firepower upgrade. ------------- Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good. |

You could always go "hawaiian style" as it is called and reverse the tank. You would probably need the little adapter block and maybe a new ASA to do this though. Its easy on a 98c but not on A5's -------------
