12 inch bigshot barrel,palmer stabilizer,crossfire 68/4500 tank! That would make your a-5 with r/t really rip!

Forget the R/T, get an E-Grip package.

I play in a speedball league with my A5 and there is several things i would recommend. First off is definately a new barrel, i have a full freak kit on mine and guys cany believe how accurate it is. Definately a nitro tank. I would also recommend the new stainless steel powertube and bolt, it will give you the extra distance to get across the field. I would recomend polishing the internals too. Then i would throw in an inline reg because the gas efficency isnt the greatest on the A-5's. After that get an E Grip (not an RT) and a double trigger (the JCS blade trig is not bad but you can always grind down the normal double trig). The e grip rips, the rate of fire can keep up with timmys, shockers, etc were talking 14+ bps on semi. After all this you will definately earn respect on the field. My whole team uses A-5s with these upgrades and we whipe the floor with teams of timmys shockers etc. The A-5 is definately one of the most underestimated guns for speedball. This probably seems like a lot of money but overall its can be less than a brand new timmy or shocker. and dont forget about Ebay Peace Edited by Conley22 |

Remember, chicks dig guys who can walk the trigger.

You will have to check your fields rules for tourneys to see if you can use the r/t, you might want to get the e-grip instead and a barrel as well as a drop. Once that is paid for then think about compressed air and a lpk and which drastically reduces recoil increasing your aim aswell as saving yourself air. Nothing worse than runnin outta co2 in the middle of a game cause they are pigs.

I dont have the money yet, but I will be getting it soon. I agree with getting the lapco bigshot, but I dont really want to spend all the money for a e-grip.
