Questions about getting a Tippmann A-5

[wdsplyr576]

I have just gotten into paintball a few months ago and have been to the fields around probably 8 times. Each time at conquest paintball. I love woodsball and have done plenty of homework about everything there is out there on the topic of paintball. I've decided to take a look at different guns and the tippmann A5 stands out most of all to me. Can anyone here please send me info about their A5s and their pros and cons about their guns? i'd love to hear different things about this gun and different stories involving it for me to make my final decision. Thanks!

So much for knowing everything there is out there on the topic of paintball... :rolleyes:.

Seriously though, just go to your local proshop and ask to try out an A and some other guns like Ions, Promasters, etc. and just see what you like better.

I agree, i seen somewhere that the Ion is like $199, which is REALLY, REALLY good for a high-end electro marker. I'd check into the Ion b4 looking @ the A5. I think i seen the price on one of the advertisements on the top of the page...i forget the site though

the a-5 is asowme for woodsball if you put a few upgrades on it (barrel,response,etc)

not so good for speedball unless you put about 350 dollars into it but it doesnt matter if your not too serious about playing speed ball.
