Tippmann A5 Pretty Good With Upgrades

The Tippmann A5 is a pretty good gun with upgrades. The bare stock A5 isn't very good. I think the gun itself is worth $150 instead of $180. What you are paying for is the upgrades you have the ability to use. also the gun is very reliable. stock barrel especially. It is only 8 1/2 inches long with no porting. loud as hell. The good thing is that there are plenty of gun upgrades. Hope you don't mind having lots of shoulder stocks cause almost all of the upgrades come with them. I cant comment on the flatline barrel cause i really don't want to pay $90 bucks or one when I can get an apex for $35. The sniper kit upgrade is a epic fail. Comes with a 20 inch barrel with a shoulder stock and a laser dot sight. I have replaced all of them with better quality products. overall, I give the A5 a 3/5 star rating. Generously.
