The black Tippmann A-5 sniper paintball gun is all about speed, making it a great choice for your paintball activities. The A-5 is outfitted with a patented Cyclone Feed System that links the feeder sprocket to the air mechanism. This gives the gun the power to unleash a fury of balls as fast as you can fire them, with a maximum feed rate of 17 balls per second. Users will also like the gun's versatility, with a frame that can be completely stripped and reassembled in the field in 60 seconds without tools. And thanks to the gun's all-aluminum die-cast receiver and extra-sturdy black finish, the A-5 is one of the toughest markers available. Combining technology, accuracy, and durability, this high-end marker has everything you need for a day at the course, letting you concentrate entirely on eliminating your opponent.

The A-5 also offers such features as a shock-absorbing end cap for reduced wear and recoil, a front-cocking knob that allows for a fully enclosed receiver, and a 200-round stock hopper. The gun is compatible with CO2, compressed air, and nitrogen, and is completely customizable for enhanced performance.

Rounding out this sniper kit are a few add-on accessories. The gun comes with a six-position stock, heavy duty remote, deluxe 6+1 with 6 - 140rd tubes, GXG mask, 20-ounce tank with pin valve, padded gun case, 21-inch squeegee, and -ounce oil. You can also upgrade the A-5 with a host of other accessories, including a Flatline barrel system, a 14-inch sniper barrel, a double trigger, a Response trigger system, an E-grip, and a low-pressure kit (all sold separately).

About Tippmann
Originally a manufacturer of collectible, half-scale replica machine guns, the family-owned Tippmann entered the paintball industry in 1986 when gun law changes forced them to re-evaluate their business. At the time, the Tippmanns were afraid that paintball was just a passing fad that would have as much staying power as the hula hoop. But it seemed like a natural transition for the company, as Tippmann knew how to make guns, and paintball markers shared the same basic principles as the machine guns it was already manufacturing. Thinking the sport would never last, Tippmann entered the paintball industry with one goal: to make high-performance, durable products that people could afford. Because of the company's experience in the gun industry, its products were light years ahead of the competition. Tippmann built the very first semi-automatic and fully automatic paintball markers, and the sport never slowed down. Tippmann went from having eight employees in 1986 to 120 today, with offices in Fort Wayne, Indiana, and Buffalo Grove, Illinois.

I love the look and feel of the extended stock, but it gets in the way of aiming with a mask on. I LOVE THE BARREL AND SIGHT. They make even the standard A5 into a true sniping machine!

THIS IS WELL WORTH THE MONEY.

I'd suggest getting the egrip too, but aside from that....this is a great deal.

4.0 out of 5 stars Reasonable, but there are better deals if you look around., June 4, 2007

This is a great, resonably priced custom setup for the Tippmann A-5. The A-5 is considered by most of the woodsball/scenarioball community as the best. The second would be the custom 98, also by Tippmann. Now while this is a decent setup, I myself bought the exact same gun, and added the stock, a low profile hopper and a better J&J ceramic barrel seperately here on amazon and it came out to only $310.

As for sights, I recomend buying sights at a store so you can try them out first. Theres nothing worse than buying sights online, waitng for it to arive and then realizing that you can't see through it when you've got a mask on, or some other problem.

Overall this is a good gun and the extra parts are resonably priced, but if you know what you want to do with your a-5, there are other parts available here on Amazon that can make it better than this setup for about the same cost.
