Hi, i need a solution for a tippmann a5 whit a tactical AK shroud from OPSGEAR. The problem is that i cant get to pull the cocking handle to the full back of the mechanism to charge the gun. the cocking handle doesn't get out enough of the gun ( see pictures of the shroud on http://www.opsgear.com/index/page/product/product_id/2070/category_id/226/category_chain/226/product_name/Tippmann+A5+AK+Tactical+Kit+-+Folding ) Anyone can suggest something for me to be able to pull it all the way back ? thx for the help ! |

Sorry im not fully understanding you cant get it to go back far enough to cock it or you cant reach it when its inside the shroud? If you just cant reach it taping something onto it to make it longer would work. As for the not being able to fully cock it the shroud must not be on quite right or you may have to just file that hole back a bit so you can get it cocked. -------------

Um I'm not too familiar with the a5 ill try to look up some stuff you
Could use but honestly whatever will fit on it and stay on it will be fine. If it works then your set. Even if it is something as simple as a pen lid or something. Mainly just try to find something that will fit on and will withstand a hit from a ball. The a5 handle is kinda flat and thin isn't it ? Maybe just finding a thin piece of metal or plastic you could glue/tape ontop of it making it extend out farther -------------
