Here's the A5 I got from Ebay.
I wasn't really happy with the quality of the paintjob, so today I stripped it down and repainted it black. I've changed the stock, removed the mag and replaced it with a rail from Undergoundmodshop.com. Next, I'll probably add the Short Striker Rail from them as well. I'm also getting rid of the flatline. Replacing it with my Apex and a cutdown barrel. Here's the before and after pics: Before: 
After:

Yes. It's an Apex. I made the holes for 2 reasons. 1. To give the air aplce to go 2. To make it look a but cooler. I also removed the badges, and used very fine, wet sandpaper to dull it up, and make it look cooler as well. |

What link are you talking about. As far as the gun being chopped off. Bad photoshop on my part. 
It is definitely my gun. |
