Do you know where to get a good/reliable/cheap gun or helmet cam for pb games. It would be nice if it was under 80 |

Thanks.
I would buy it but I just dont have the money now which sucks. I need to borrow money off someone or something to put on my paypal acount but everyone I know doesnt have any money which sucks because I know this deal wont happen again.

The Alpha Black is a great deal. I would strongly reccomend getting one
if you're getting into milsim on a budget. |

| I agree the AB is a fantastic milsim. I converted my A5 into an M4 and it cost me about $400 anfter the marker. For under $250 you can get the AB tactical with the e-grip. Just get a new barral when you have the cash. |

My dad has had his preorder in for the Alpha Black with egrip for about 3 months. I would go with that if you're looking for milsim. -------------

See, AB hands down. A great starter MilSim and rather reliable from what I've heard and read.
But, if you build it..... 
.....they will "Oooooo" & "Ahhhhh"!  ------------- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kCZWhJCF6Ig">

But, you could probably get 3 ABs for the price of that. -------------

Im pretty sure Im going to get the A5 with Egrip but im not totally sure. If I get it where is a reliable place to get the upgrades/mods for it? |

I really can't say enough good things about the Alpha Black. There's a little bit of difficulty involved in changing out the stock barrel, since many aftermarket barrels are thinner than the stock. But, I've used my AB in scenario games with great success, with nothing more than a new barrel and a sling added to it- it's become a primary marker for me. ------------- ? |

That A5 has an e-grip XDG Scorpion. I bought it for $259 I think. I also have two A5's with response triggers. The e-grip has a higher rate of fire than the R/T but it costs more.

Im thinking about gettting this gun. I heard they are good with all the new upgrades. Tippmann 98 Custom Platinum Paintball Gun - E-Trigger its $200 so I seems like a good deal. |

| All up to you scorpion however if you do plan on milsiming it get a Alpha Black from the start. It will save you monet. But remember there is NO after marker e-grip for it so if you want an e-grip you have to get the one factory installed. |

Date Posted: 02 June 2008 at 5:26pm
| Yeah I know there isnt thats why im going for a 98 custom platinum because all the 98c mods are able to convert to the platinum so Im going to make it an AK milslim. |

i have to say that the alpha black is a good option, it's all ready for mil-sim) right out of the box, and you can allso get your self a good mask with the left over cash. i got my a5 used for 100 bones, but if you are good with tools you can make your own parts... http://kurieitaa.googlepages.com/akoutside02.jpg"> http://kurieitaa.googlepages.com/akoutsidefinal.jpg"> it will save you lots of cash and you will have lots of money left over for other goodies. -------------
