Rate my A-5, some parts were purchased on e-bay so the total price is lower than the total retail, but it cost me roughly 700 for everything including shipping.
Tippmann A-5 w/WAS E-Grip
Flatline Barrel
RIS Flatline Shroud
Tippmann Low Pressure Kit
Palmer's Pursuit Shop Male Regulator
Bob Long 0-1200 Psi Gauge
M249 SAW Stock(It's tilted and therefor way better than those Tasco M4 stocks)
Average rifle sling(Jungle Slung)
BSA Red Dot Sight
Picanty Rail
Custom Barrel Extension
RIS Front Grip With Collapsible Spring Loaded Bi-pod
Everyday Black Zip Tie(Shaved to a point at the end so it fits in the E-grip slot)
Tasco Drop Forward Block(In the grip so dirt wouldn't get in the E-grip)
I went with the A-5 because I wanted a flatline, I used to have a 98c and was very impressed with the flatline. It is heavier than most markers, but not too heavy for anybody with some muscles in their arms. Honestly, besides the stock, I'm not sure what else you guys mean by 'too many useless parts'. I guess the the bi-pod is useless too, but it came as part of the front grip and the front grip with the bi-pod was the same price as other front grips without the bi-pod.
Coming from a forum of mainly speedballers, you aren't going to get very good ratings.
10 easy for a tippy though, every creative.
And :tdown: on the BT-4... those things are crap. All BT guns are just scaled-down tippys that dont shoot nearly as dependably.
IMO, if he wanted something like that, he wouldve gotten the BT, but he wanted a gun that was custom, that he could call original and his own. I respect that.

lol i find it funny when people think that theres only one type of paintball out there, those who really love the sport dont just hide behind inflatable bunkers thier whole life
im gunna say 9/10
looks great, the only reason i didnt give it a 10 is cuz iv never been a fan of sights on pb markers and i think the flatline is WAY overpriced for the quality of it.
but that is by far one of the better milsim a-5s iv seen love the camo

Brilliant...
It's a cool marker considering its purpose. Seems to be a lot of things sticking off the bottom (foregrip, reg, expansion chamber I assume). I'm sure its heavy, but there really isn't a practical way to make a marker such as this weigh 2 pounds. If it is what you want, bully for you.
10/10
Please tell thats not spray paint... it looks dangerously like it from the pics... I'll have to find out before I rate.
It is, but a hell of a spray paint job at that, still holds my original rating. and whoever flamed him for putting that money into that instead of an Etek, shut up please.

i dont think so, probably made everything match better, plus with the stock and such, if it were all black it would look too big to be a military gun thats made for something like urban combat, i gota agree with the camo.
