Keep the A-5, no question. Then again, if you said should I sell my Dm4 or A-5, most people here would say the Dm4 .

The A-5 is one of the most customizable guns in all of paintball, you could make a better speedball gun than the TES out of your A-5.

The TES is ok but in all reality its pretty cheap quality and its unrelaible too. The A-5 is tough, durable and with some upgrades it can be very fast.

also the ball detent is horrible, f/a isnt really f/a, no tourney lock, the reg sucks, and its impossible to strip completely, because the cup seal/ valve combo is extremely touchy

I'd say keep the TES.  I have one and can shoot 16 BPS on it easily.  The trigger pull is pretty light.  I got a new microswitch from Radio Shack and the pull is even lighter.  The vision eye sucks, so turn it off by holding down the trigger for 10-15 seconds.
