Btw the a5 doesn’t really even need atc because the cyclone feed system practically eliminates chop
Been ages since i played paintball. Still got my 98 (the one with the gills) i bought back in 2000. Glad to see its still rocking.
If you are looking for a gun that shoots fast and won't break your pockets, the Tippmann A-5 with a response trigger is a beast. The only thing I suggest doing is replacing any o rings or old valves that that come from the factory. Just replay it with something new, because who knows how long theses guns have been sitting in storage room.
Would be cool if you do an efficiency test on a A5, so we know typically how much pods it can shoot. No one has a video on that, I know its a old ass gun but it is still being purchased up to this day.
As far as durability, the 98 is like the AK of the paintball world.
I have a tippman a5 and it is a great gun

The only thing bad about the A5 (Which I absolutely love, though I've upgraded to the Phenom) is that it DOESN'T fire competition level paint that's fragile like HK Competition. It works great on a medium/durable recreation grade paint. The Phenom (with cyclone feed), my main gun has the same problem. The 98 and A5 are the best value in paintball. I highly recommend them for people considering paintball as a occasional recreation (once, twice a month for a year) activity.

I'm new to paintball . Can you review a Fronts with the best hopper for it or the cyclone syst. Thanks
Would you recomend getting a bt4 slice rifle for a begginer woods ball player
Ive literally had my tippman a-5 for 11 years and still runs great with e trigger id be tearing fools up with positive k.d each time i play paintball . A-5 super reliable at an awesome price. And plus theres just so much u can put on it as well.
Tippmann A5 and the $98 are literally the AK 47 of the paintball guns.
Now that the A5 is $280, is it worth the extra cost? Could get the emek for the same price
Unfortunately they stopped making the pro carbine, I've owned one for years, I've fire all 3 and the carbine seems to have better accuracy though it's not very fast, though I'm usually not throwing much paint anyway
He totally doing hotel vs etek 5 they responded to mine and someone else's comments on just that
the a5 thread is also compatible with a prolite
i just got both of these from my grandpa so ig this is a W
I have a tippman FT50, always giving me a high velocity... I cannot lower it down by using velocity adjuster screw. Cutting a little in drive spring will help to lower the velocity or will cause more problem in the marker?
I still like both but is the a5 just as reliable as the 98 custom? Is so I will get a a5
seeing my comment my from 3 years ago and still buying a used tippmann 98 custom for half the price it will perform just the same as a a5 just slower and im fine with that. a few upgrades will be just as good as a a5. i still want a speed ball gun but this will work till then.
I like the 98 better. It has a nicer E grip and beeing able to run my smoke Halo is awesome.
I meant to say Cronus with the best hopper or a cyclone syst.
The A5 could be compar to a AK47 of paintball gun.
98 with ACT and a cyclone feeder and response trigger.
98s and A5s are like the AKs of paintball

I totally agree, back in the day I ran Tippmann 68 special the predecessor to the 98 custom. I played for about 16 years, then life happens. Getting back into it now and picked up the A5. I have had e-markers in the past. But I am a Woods player so I wanted strong and reliable for getting back into it.

With the hoppers I found that if you have a long hopper neck you don’t need to worry abt jams

Society 1 no need for it. it's definitely worth buying! It was my first marker almost 5 years and it's still slinging paint, only problem I have is the composite body shells are cracked from being used for so long.

The Gryphon, for some reason, is very, very accurate. More accurate then other tippmanns for reasons no one has been able to figure out. It's light (the plastic body can crack) and has a double trigger, BUT it is what it is, there is no adaptability.

I wear contacts now, but when I played with glasses on, the JT Pro-Flex mask was very comfortable. With glasses on, you will scratch the inside of the goggle lenses. This is not a huge deal, but it will happen. You might not even notice it because you have glasses on. I wear wrap around sunglasses now and they don't make contact with goggle lenses at all. Honestly, best way to play is with contacts on. I can see the field much better and my vision is not obstructed.

I imagine that it similar to an actual firearm. A longer barrel gives a bit more velocity but the added weight could also be a factor.

IMO theres no reason to get a 98 anymore. Either spend the extra money on the tmc and you get magfed and hopper fed and has the tacticool look most new players want. Or you could get a gog enmey which is lighter, quieter, more consistent, smoother, easier on paint, and the new bolt assembly makes it much more reliable and easier to service
