No don't buy the 98 if you want to make it look like an m16. The a5 is much better for milsim. |

the 98 is much btter for a 16 if you mill things off it (such as the foregrip) the a5 is easier ------------- <just say no to unnecessarily sexualized sigs> |

/\ quite easy to do but permenant i dont suggest you try it a5 is never a bad choice though depends on your budget also cause for the price of the a5 you could get a 98 and a stock . ------------- <just say no to unnecessarily sexualized sigs> |

oh my god youre my hero yes you can put a flatline on it. and only thing you need to buy is a new hopper to make full advantage of your fully auto (or cyclone with a bit of modification) heres a couple pics to prove the flatline thing: i'd suggest an apex though its a really sweet gun. if you have any questions just pm me. ------------- <just say no to unnecessarily sexualized sigs> |

BT for looks? Nah, Ariakon they are AMAZING at making mil-sim markers, Why go with a US-5? Basically a rip-off of the A-5 or should I say "Clone" you have much better support if you buy a Tippmann.. hince you have Tippmanns Cust Support which far outweighs PMI'S ------------- Tippmann A-5 -Shocktech Drop -Super R\T -QEV -JCS Powertube -BT Sight -Flatline + Metadyne Shroud -R.I.S.
