adapter question

[tomastos]

does anyone know if you can buy an a5 to automag, icd, or diablo barrel adapter? if so, can anyone give me a site?

- thx.

Just use the search engine at some of the bigger online paintball stores and you should probably find something. Froogle works good too. Diablo is not a barrel thread just so you know. Diablo blowbacks are Spyder threaded and Trix's (used to be affiliated with Diablo) are Cocker threaded.

thx for the help

but i warn you, using an adapter isn't a good idea if you're looking to keep that accuracy. from what i've heard, they really aren't that good in honing or quality...

[tomastos]

im willing to sacrifice a little accuracy, i got a brand new dye aluminum barrell for 11 bucks. Even with the adapter, 31 bucks for a ninty doller barrel isnt bad. Theyre also selling boomies for like 30 bucks.

You will be sacrificing more than a little accuracy, but whatever.

for the a-5 i think you should get the adapter that goes into the gun, not the lapco one. the lapco one you just screw it into the a-5 barrel thing.

[tomastos]

where can i get the adapter that goes into the gun? ive only been able to find the lapco one. also, does anyone know if i can mount my tank vertically on my a5, w/o dropping $50 on a dead on vertical adapter?

[audioAL]

you can. just take the tombstone adapter out and unscew the bottomline/steel braided hose. and plug the tombstone adapter and you can screw in the tank.

i tried that, the valve in the tombstone adapter is different from the asa. when i screw in the tank, the gun gasses up, but will only fine a few shots before running out of gas. i guess the tombstone adapter dosnt allow for constant gas flow . but thx anyway. any other ideas?

by the way, does anyone know what threads a diablo inferno takes? i tried spyder and that didnt work. i kinda need to kno soon.

adaptors won't mess with accuracy all that much, unless you have a kit or brittle paint. they have a VERY small bore size so a kit would be rendered useless and brittle paint will get demolished
