Double post.. YEs, for a newbie go for it. ITs a bit overpriced though. To make it better get either a reg if your shootig N2, an expansion chamber if your shooting CO2... An Egrip will be a nice upgrade. The cyclone SHOULD keep up with it if its what its worked up to be (never used an egrip on an A5 before). If you play woodsball, you'd want a stock. For speedball its a nono. I like the collapsable stocks myself. Get your cheek right up on it.. Very nice, but not goor for snapshooting.

Save your money and find one in the BST threads. 250 for a 98 custom with a hopper on steroids is way too much for me.

An egrip will give you that "mouse click" kind of trigger pull, as opposed to the infamous long hard pull of tippmanns and spyders. IT will also allow you to shoot on Responce, a few different types of burst and full auto. But you only need semi.

You can shoot faster and easier with it.

Go with the A-5. And if you don't wanna lose any rep points, make one post and wait, someone will reply.

Agreed. Good info.
