hey guys! Guess what… 🙂

I just got a new paintball gun! the Tipmann A5! :thumb:

Here are the specs and some pictures of the gun:

(I had a model 98 with 14’’ barrel and x-chamber)

i read somwhere that the A5 is like the model 98 with all the upgrades and such, and I have to say, they were right. (it is as accurate with a 8.5’’ barrel as my 98 was with a 14’’ barrel)

Do any of you guys play paintball?

Yeah I’ve already told you what I got in the Halo K-Team thread, and I used to paintball, until I realized how much of a waste of money it is! 😛

These things cost a lot around here… and there’s no one to shoot anyway, at least no one with a gun 😉
