Talking How good would this Tippmann X-7 be?

Okay so I don't have this gun but I'm wondering how good you think it would be, because I'm thinking about buying it.

Heres the Pic






Basically its a Tippmann X-7 with some parts...
a folding x36 stock - 69 bux
a flatline barrel - 109 bux
a vertical handle - 22 bux
and a 2 inch tactical rail
for the vertical handle - 16 bux

Here are the bullet points I got from their site: Tippmann: Product Guide: X7 with Response Triggerβ„’

• The most customizable marker ever - made with a thousand different looks
• New magnesium receiver is extremely lightweight and durable
• New Cyclone EP (Enhanced Performance) system feeds up to 20 BPS
• New air-thru stock compatible system eliminates gas line under the marker
• New low profile, offset hopper for clear site line
• Modular shroud with four rails to add on sights and scopes
• AR15 style magazine with built in tool storage
• Picatinny top rail to easily add new risers, sights or handles
• Upgraded adjustable rear site helps with long range aiming
• Push pin design for easy field stripping and accessory add ons
• Includes maintenance pack, barrel sleeve, and gun oil

This gun I would use for woodsball mostly. But has the e grip so it can be used for speedball and stuff with out actual restrictions on automatic or turbo.

This is just the cheep parts on it, if I were to get this gun I would add the air through stock so you could have the co2 in a yummy vest, get a nice scope for it, and get the smaller magazine so its not in the way and weighs less.

So the gun can be easily changed. Tell me what you think and or what setup you would use instead.

About... I'm gonna say 60% of what you're paying for is for the milsim look, not performance or even function so much. If that's what you're looking for, then yeah, go for it. I personally would never do that though, that's throwing away money to me as I'm not interesting in that type of play at all.

PS: This is in the wrong section, this section is for people to post guns they currently own and have other people rate or appraise them. This should be in the Tippmann section.

If your going to spend all of that money you might as well just get the A-5 and save some money. They are basically the same thing with some fancier dressing on the X-7 from what I have read. If you want the MilSim look I have seen some stuff for the A-5 that will make it look much more realistic.

i dont care that it looks realistic just that it works well, and i read that the a5 only gets like 10 to 12 ball per second, while the x7 can shoot them up to 20 balls per second, because it has the cyclone feed system enhanced performance and with a response trigger or e grip could get it to go way higher

and i thought this would fit in this forum, cuz i want it rated as if i actually had it. didnt think id get as many reviews over in the tippmann forum

If you don't care about looks, then you're wasting a whole lot of money. For $627, I'd look at a FEP Quest, Proto Rail, or wait until the cup and look into a Bob Long Protege, DP F8... many other much better choices, IMHO.

ive been looking at the exact same gun, except without the handle and a red dot sight instead. but i would say go for it. i generally like the milsim look because i personally think they are more comfortable to hold. you are going to be able to get that gun for a lot less if you look in the right places, too.

I agree. I just bought a A5 with basically the same mods for almost half that price with a mask, pods, C02, etc on ebay

But otherwise just get a better gun like DarkTamer said.

I have an A-5 with the Rampage Trigger assembly, HPA 48/45 LP output, remote line, and I get about 18-20 bps.
