I'm getting an a-5 soon and have some money to spend on after-market parts. Trying to figure out whats the best bang for my buck. It will be used for woodsball and mil-sims. Anyone got any thoughts? Thanks |

err money for A-5 + money for upgrades off the bat = money better spent on a different gun. If you already have an A-5 (as in you already ordered one), buy a firepower upgrade, and a new barrel. ------------- 2005 Freestyle Naughty Dawg Freestyle Angel LCD SP-8 Tippmann 98 Custom |

Well, the milsim aspect can be decided by you, but the Egrip is a nice addition to any A5. You'll also want to look into a new barrel, length would depend on if you buy a shroud or not, but JJ Ceramics are excellent barrels and a steal for the price. You may also think about the Vortex mod for your cyclone. A remote coil would be a good idea as well since you'll more than likely be using a stock. If you dont have a thermal mask yet, I'd reccomend picking one up asap. V-Force makes some nice ones. ------------- Pumpker'd; (V.)
