Go with the A5. It's got the feed system, and you can make it look like anything.

Alternatively, between the 2 you mention, go with the Tippmann. Whoever told you there were more accessories for the BT's than the Tippmanns was dreaming.

as someone already said i'd go for the a5, so much better and not much more expensive than a 98 new,

but as that wasnt the question...
98 as far as i'm concerned has unbeatable durability, i'm a marshal at a site and we use 98's as the main marker, as do alot of sites..
i've seen them dragged thru pretty thick mud....dropped in a river.. then pulled out recocked and still worked..
there is a reason they are used as a site marker.. cos they a freaking hard to break...and if they do..there easy to fix.. a 98 was my first makrer and i loved it.. so yeah i'd go for a 98..

but dont think i havnt used a bt4, mate of mine broke his ...dont know how... he broke it...lol

so yeah i'd go for a 98 much more reliable marker...also ...has more upgrades than a bt4..duno who told you didnt
