Im currently looking to buy a new marker, I mostly play woodsball but I still want a marker that is good for speedball as well. If I buy the Tippmann A-5 I'm probly gonna be buying an E-grip for it and a shorter barrel for speedball. I'm leaning toward the Tippmann A-5 but I would still like some input. Thanks

I support Spyders and all, but I really don't think their high end guns are worth the price paid. Yet (the VS series isn't out yet...). I'd have to say the A-5. ------------- Evil Elvis: "Detrevni is definally like a hillbilly hippy from hell"

A5 if you want your gun to last. They are of alot higher quality than Spyders. -------------

Go with the Tippy. More reliable and durable than a lot of Spyders. ------------- Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good. |

Well thanks for the input. I've decided to go with my first choice the Tippmann A-5 sniper package, which I ordered with an E-grip as well, and its all for a total $430 (which would normally be more expensive but I ordered it from xtremez.com, they sell just as good of quality for less). |
It should hopefully be here in a week or so from now.
