[SYTRAXZ]

hmmmm i just got an e-mail about one of these new guns. looks pretty cool with the cyclonic feed but how do you attach a hopper. any one own one of these yet or are they that new?

ah ha i see it comes with its own hopper.... never mid that question but how does it perform?

sue

should 32degrees sue tippman for creating the A-5? if u look at the a-5 from the side take off the forgrips and shorten up the barrel id swear thats pretty much the pt extreme except it runs on canisters not cartriges. jnow i supposes ur conna tell me al markers look the same but i think these 2 look way 2 similar

The A5 is a totally (well done) rip-off of HK's MP5. I think Tippman has really nailed their market here although creating a marker with the *exact* profile of the world's most popular submachine gun is going to be a feeding frenzy for the anti-paintball-because-it-imitates-war crowd (read: overprotective mothers). The scenario players are going to go crazy for it. Is it a limited run like they did with the f/a?

SYTRAX,,, WHAT DID I TELL U,, it LOOKED LIKE AN MP5k,

and damn, u beat me to it,, i was going to put tis thread,,

i thought this is a bad idea and reno has said, but wont this be more of rec baller gun??
I mean, this does look cool for rec's, but say, if i new about the issue about pball guns and live guns, and i was going to buy this for tourny use, i wouldnt buy, cos u might get alot of critism on the field and might be forced to get a diff gun.

If u rec and tourny ballers out there know the issues we have with pball guns that look like real ones. Then u wont go and buy 1!!

lol

lol oh fine get mad that he beat u to it lol. i still think it looks like the pt extreme but u guys are probably right also saying its a mp5k or what ever. hehe if u had a kool mom like me she would promote u playing paintball, but as alot of other people dont, u hear your mothers saying stop playing with that infernal gun your gonna put ur eye out with that thing! and thats what drives many ballers crazy the thought of putting there eye out over there head.
