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.

| This gun is exceptional in that it is very reliable as far as functionallity. It is mechanical based which unlike electric guns there is a lower possibility of major malfunction. You can check with other paintballers but the fact remains that this thing is known for being reliable beyond where many others aren't. For the price it is a pretty good package. The only downer that turned this from a 5 star to a 4 star is that the mask isnt that exceptional but with it being apart of a package deal who expects it to be. Overall if you are going to play regularly and don't like maintenace this ainght a bad way to go. |

This package is exactly what it promises. Good gun, good tank, good back satchel, not so great goggles (padding is pretty hard).
Delivery was faster then what the estimated time was by a couple days. Shipped almost instantly.
Good for people like me who are just getting into paintball.
The only two things i have to say is that if you are going to get this package, they do not provide the line to connect the co2 to the marker if you want to put the tank in the back satchel. Would have been nice to see that with it, but they dont say it comes with it so cant blame them for that.
The major problem iam having is that i got this shipped internationally. I figured the 83 dollars or so of shipping was super steep as it was and would cover everything, i was wrong! There was a 40 dollar dutie fee at the border into Canada. i paid almost half the packages price to have it shipped to canada. So i wouldnt have spent much more if i bought them a little over priced in stores...
Other then that everything is as it appears! |
