So i just took some pics today because i got the camera back after a
couple months. The gun hasn't changed much in a long time but whateva. Enojy:      ~Tippmann A-5~ ~E-Grip with A.P.E. board and A.P.E. Power Shot selenoid ~QEV ~Flatline (not shown) ~Dye UL 14in Barrel ~32 degrees Whisper 14in Barrel ~Lapco offset rail with Tac Light and Scope. ~JCS Combat folding stock with RVA ~OpsGear MP5 Mag kit ~Special OPS Front grip ~R5 Hopper ~Polished Internals ~16 oz Co2 X 2, 20 oz Co2 with PMI Remote Line (not shown) The gun rips like nothing else i have ever shot. I built this gun for a bit of looks and mostly speed. The cyclone internals were swapped and the APE helps this rip over 26 bps. The only way it can feed is with the WGP turbo QEV (about $70CDN well spent).My next and last project for "this" A5 is to fully GOLD PLATE the gun. This will happen in the next week. I will post pics after it is finished. ------------- Tippmann A-5/Zeus G1 E-Grip /w APE board QEV Vortex Flatline Dye UL 14 in.

looks rather nice. I applaud your work. it looks very nice. why are you getting it gold platted? you going for the james bond "golden gun" effect? should be kinda interesting to see a gold plated paintball gun. I hope you realize its gonna get messed up rather quickly if you actually play with the gun frequently though I must say im not a fan of folding stocks. I think that gun would look great with the Mp5 style retractable stock instead. -------------

Gold platted would be cool for speed but that looks like woods. I would save your money and just do a cool paint job. ------------- Thinking about it... |

^^^ but i cant wrap my mind arround a look that works throughout the
entire gun from mag to stock. I have doen the bmw M5 blue 98 that i
posted up here b4, but i wanted to do the A5 like the gold plated AK
47's people see everywhere. I am also going to get the dye ul painted or gold plated as well so... ------------- Tippmann A-5/Zeus G1 E-Grip /w APE board QEV Vortex Flatline Dye UL 14 in.

Are you planning to display your marker or use it? If you use it woods I guess getting tagged with it being the last thing you see is pretty cool. What is the R5 hopper?

^^^ricochet hopper for the A5. I use this A5 at only a handful of games
each year so im not worried about the finish, she will still be pimp. ------------- Tippmann A-5/Zeus G1 E-Grip /w APE board QEV Vortex Flatline Dye UL 14 in. R5 Hopper Lapco offset rail with Tac Light/Scope OpsGear MP5 Sliding Stock OpsGear MP5 Mag kit SpecOps Front grip |
