Tippman A5 Mods: Want to make your A-5 shoot fast?

I have had a Tippmann A-5 for years. It's a great marker. The one frustration I've had with it is that when ever I did any kind of speedball course I was pitted against a lot of high level markers. I still did ok but it became apparent that if I wanted to really advance up that I would need a faster marker. Insert problem, I didn't have the funding to buy a faster one. So I dissected my A-5 and found that if you replace the trigger spring with a lighter one and put a stopper of sorts to limit the trigger pull travel that I could dramatically increase the speed of this marker. Now I can keep up with my partners '03 Intimidator and still fall in the regulations of one trigger pull one shot. Plus its fun to see guys underestimate me because I use an A-5.

If you wish to do this to your A-5 I have a step by step guide at this address... it is informational only I don't sell anything.
