  This is my latest! Bullpup mod from ICP -b5 mod -1/8 qev -tech t lighting rod -tech t vortex -tech t squishy paddles -polished internals -rufus dawg powertube and bolt -mad man spring kit -W.A.S. board -super light trigger spring -folding front grip -x7 low profile hopper -dye sticky grips -laaazzzerrrr -weaver rail guards -j&j 14" barrel -cut up m4 mag (I like the looks of it!) I think thats about it. Yes those are the new monster balls(green fill) and they aren't half bad! Better than some of the high end paint that I have used and thats no joke! -------------

New formula alot better than their old ones (the blueish silver ones). I bought them on a whim at wal mart one day (saw they had new formula) and now I have been preferring them over Draxxus Bronze or Rec Sport. They are kinda a tough shell...they don't break every time but I would rather have a no break than clean my gun all day long!

I hate you. I want one of those soooooo badly. I am saving up for one and will eventually get one hopefully. I will prolly just sell my A5 and get the fully assembled one. ------------- Stay low, run fast, and hope that paintball doesn't hit your... http://www.deltasquad.info/">

The B-5 is built out of durable ballistic nylon not cheap plastic.They have videos of them throwing it like 15' in the air and letting it land on concrete and not breaking and still working. There is another video of them running it over with a Envoy at 10 mph....the case broke but the gun still shot.Don't plan on throwing it in front of any 3 ton SUV's though. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w9gysQbCAog -------------

Identity Crisis Paintball... They basically took the A5, put the trigger electronics in a new place, allowed the A5 inside the case to sit back far, and gave you an A5 20" long while still having a stock. here is a link. I have heard the best way to get it is at least with the electronics installed because it is a pain to do it yourself. http://www.identitycrisispaintball.com/ - http://www.identitycrisispaintball.com/ ------------- Stay low, run fast, and hope that paintball doesn't hit your... http://www.deltasquad.info/">

LOL yeah man! That M4 carbine with the scepter launcher was a beast! Had a good intimidation factor but thats it. Kids would pee their pants when they saw it. But the fact is it was too big to throw around a tree when facing a smaller lighter gun. Can't wait for the 26 hour game this weekend at Splat Brothers!!! Anyone else going??

You know I was looking into possibly getting the duracoat when I get mine but I like the black even more than I did before after seeing yours. You might have just saved me 70 bucks. Thanks! ------------- Stay low, run fast, and hope that paintball doesn't hit your... http://www.deltasquad.info/">

im getting one soon enough, ive seen it before, i just never knew where to look...ima stick an APEX on mine, only good looking mod for the A-5, it offers tactical superiority in close quarters and can also shoot fast as well as far if need be, great mod and comes with a APE board...very nice for only $350 -------------

yes the B5 is already pretty pricey but there are some ways around it. If the price was already raised again then that would be crazy. ------------- Stay low, run fast, and hope that paintball doesn't hit your... http://www.deltasquad.info/">

I thought it was kind of high myself till I realized that all the ops gear parts that I had bought that had no real function were well over 300 dollars. i had no problem selling that stuff once I thought about it. This mod looks good and at the same time makes your gun shorter. Its like having a stock with out the length. -------------

Thats how I feel about it too. Did you get the RVA with it too? if not is the velocity screw on the A5 stiil easily accessible? ------------- Stay low, run fast, and hope that paintball doesn't hit your... http://www.deltasquad.info/">

Yeah it is still just as accessible as before.So much easier to change the battery too. Just take the top pin out of the butt plate and the bottom is hinged. I love this thing! The internals slide out like before too. It is quite a pain to assemble though. If you are going to use your old board just make sure you have a friend that can solider good and get some heat shrink to protect the wires and solider joints. It took me a few tries to get it together right.

I am just gonna sell my old board and buy their board that is 100 but comes with the extended wiring. It saves some money to put it in myself. It wont be for a while though. If I dont get the money soon it may not be until xmas. I may get the RVA for it too...

About that. I figured there's no way this dude would shoot crappy balls through THAT marker, so I was a bit inspired to go have a look at 'em. I went over to Wal-Mart and took a look at a case of those. Man, no way I'd shoot one of those through my APEX. My Cyclone would chew those up! They had a consistency like a grape that's sat in the fridge a little too long. I went through a couple of cases to the clerks dismay,  but they were all like that. So tell me, what I saw is what you fired? If it is, you're a brave man. Bad ass marker though, but a tad too much for me to plunk down all at once. Do they have layaway?, lol.

6 cases and zero breaks and sometimes no breaks in the hits. Sounds like your Wal Mart has a leak in the roof over their paintball stuff. As for spending all at once.....had the A5 for a while did all the upgrades over the past 2 years and ordered the b5 kit with the money I made off of Ebay sales. As for them staining they do but I have my own private field so no worries for me just get extra stain stick. -------------

does this gun feel balanced when you use it? Or is it heavy in the back?

depends on what you mean by that... the gun is mainly the back. It is made to be shouldered and more weight is behind the grip. ------------- Stay low, run fast, and hope that paintball doesn't hit your... http://www.deltasquad.info/">

stupid question, did you use your old trigger assembly? how about the asa assembly, old too? take a look at my A5 on the marker page, tell me what you think, thanks. Bill ------------- KrazyBill |

yes it uses the stock trigger assembly just pieced out, relocated, and switched up to an egrip sear. The ASA has the ability to also be used. I am no longer getting a B5 though (not soon at least) too much $$ for me right now :( ------------- Stay low, run fast, and hope that paintball doesn't hit your... http://www.deltasquad.info/">
