Paintball Question: Tippmann A5

[FutureDevilDog]

Ok, so I am asking for an A5 for Christmas. To anyone that owns one or has shot one, is it good for speedball? I will mostly be playing rec ball, but I want to use it for speedball too, sometimes. BTW I plan on getting a J&J 14" Ceramics barrel, Double Trigger, and a remote.

Noooooooooooooo!!!!! Not A A-5 Go With A Cocker, Bob Long, Impy Or Something Siilar To Those Guns

honestly, DevilDog, the A-5 sucks gas like it's going out of style. Hang up the remote, because you'll need all the regulation you can get with the sucker-if you don't like your tank, get a nice drop forward. But in all honesty, I'd say go maybe with a cocker, or if you don't like complex things, a cheap spyder electro, because internally they're pretty much all alike. If you'd like, I can give you the Ultimate Guide to Upgrading a Spyder- by Deerslayer, w/over 20 mods to his.
