@ThEaNiMaToRgUrU yes i understood that...the GRIP is AMI, but the selector is Still on the left...i want a marker with the selector on the right...maybe even the hopper on the left would be cool....the world is just too right handed..
@wrestlemaniac202 its already out. i saw it at my local shop but depending on where you go you might still see a lot of the old models in stock so check the box. it retails for the same amount as the old a5.
i went to get an a-5 today. it was the 'new' a-5 and it was leaking hpa from the tombstone. the guy checked the o-ring for the fitting that screws into it and it still leaked the same after reconnecting it. should the fitting be screwed in hand tight or should pliers be used to tighten? what else could be the problem? are air leaks in paintball guns common? id like to get an a5 but i dont wanna deal with leaking issues.
i need some help. my x7 barrel adapter seems to be loose. even when all the screws are tightened, i can still rotate the adapter. is this normal? if not what can i do to stop it. thanks
I am going to buy this as soon as i sell my old a5, it looks so much better then the original and the little tab near the barrel comes off i love that GREAT JOB TIPPMANN, keep making amazing products and soon everyone will have a tippmann, as soon they just have to realize that Tippmann is the only way to go :) GREAT JOB !!!
Although I like my Carver One, being that this is my first marker and chose the right brand...I should have gotten the X7 or A5. Now that Tippmann has come out with a newer version of the A5, I really would love to add this within my arsenal. Even though I have just one marker...lol. Thanks Tippmann....excellent brand!!
So how does the new cyclone system for the new A-5 compare to the Cyclone system on the Phenom? Would it be worth putting this new cyclone system on a Phenom?
@scenekkid213 Good plan talking about how Tippmann guns are bad on their Chanel where all their fans hang out. Also... Anyone who knows anything about paintball knows and can figure out that Tippmann guns arent meant to be speedball guns, they are meant to be cheap, durable, and easy to maintain. Not high in the priorities list of many speedball guns.
all the internet research i have seen says I should buy the X7 Phenom and that the A5 is out of date. It doesn't appear that this upgrade will help in overcoming the X7 but you never know. I plan to get the X7 Phenom when I have enough money saved up.
Excellent! I will invest in one and I want to upgrade it with that new Flatline! I love my current A5 as it is the most powerful and reliable marker I have in my collection. All I need is a stock and I will have myself a nice mockup of an Mp5 to add to my collection!
I might consider the new A5 if it wasn't such a pain in the ass to maintain. Now many of you are going to say "Tippmanns don't need maintenance". You are dead wrong. ALL paintball markers require maintenance, just some more than others. Tippmanns don't require a whole lot, but shit happens to where you have to painstakingly take it apart. I hate the clamshell idea and I hate all the little parts and pieces. Tippmann is well behind the competition in the "Ease of Maintenance" category.
my first ever marker was an A5 and boy how i loved it! bloody reliable and super tough. sadly ive sold it off since i started playing speedball more but still, hats off to Tippmann for such a hardcore marker. plan to get a new A5 though for old times sake.
Some very good new features. The Cyclone feed modifications will be appreciated by Tippmann owners that experienced the "popcorn effect." The new Flatline barrel is also a nice touch. I just may have to buy a new A-5 and see how it goes...my last one shot more gas out of the sealing surfaces than out of the barrel, prompting me to get a different brand of marker. My original A-5, now my oldest daughter's, is her baby and she is deadly with it!
@scenekidd213 its because your a speedball guy jeez, take a bad dive with your speedball gun and its broken, take a bad dive with a tippman and it laughs
@eboga30 I've taken dozens bad dives with my Alias (including 3 feet onto concrete) and it still works like a champ. Don't know where you got your information, mate.
Is it full auto
