My friend has an A-5 and he said he got a similar delrin bolt. I looked on ebay to see what you were talking about and i have seen the bolt before. It is an excellent buy and will fit your A-5 and give these results
This bolt will:
-make your gun more gas efficient
-enhance shot accuracy
-decrease ball breaks
-quiet shots
-allow you to walk on water. Not really, but seriously, this is the best bolt you can buy for your Tippmann.
The thing on ebay says he is selling it for 30.00 Freakin' dollars. Go to Xpaintball.com they sell the same part for 19.99
here is how to find it.
1. Go to xpaintball.com
2. Click on gun parts and upgrades on the left of the screen
3. Go to Tippmann parts
4. Click on Tippmann A-5 parts
5. You will then see a page of items. On the upper eft you will see bolts. Click on Tippmann 98/A-5 Shocktech Superfly Bolt
Check out the other bolts to! the Rufus dog bolt is very nice and it does make your Gas hog A-5 more efficient! I hope i have helped!!!!

I bought the Superfly and I love it. I would recommend that or the Rufus Dawg. The Starrfire is an ok bolt, but you'll notice more with the Superfly or Rufus Dawg. It's definitely worth the purchase IMO.

Waste of time. Bolts have an illusion of working better. Use the money on a helpful upgrade.

Dude I put the Supalfy on my A5 and noticed straighter shots. I don't know if it's the cupped face or what, but it definitely helped my gun, that's all I have to say.

A new bolt isn't going to make enough difference to make or break your day. That's the long and short of it. If you're playing ball the way you should, by using precise accuracy by volume a marginally tighter spread isn't going to make a difference.
Price of bolt = a couple of field fees...play ball.
