The A-5 is a solid gun, the cyclone feed system is very fast and all that
jazz. But haven't you noticed that the A-5 weighs about twenty pounds. At
least you can upgrade an e-spyder to make it tournement ready, what can you
do to an A-5? Make it waste MORE gas by getting a response trigger? You can
put a T-Board w/ a vision system on a spyder and then you have NO CAP at
all(thats as fast as your finger twitches) . So pretty much, e-spyders are
infinitly better than any tippman.

First of all, tell me where I coul get a T-board.
Second, you do have to realize that A5's and Spyders are geared toward
different types of play. A Spyder is for all-around rec ball and minor
speedball, whereas an A5 is for rec ball, scenerio games, and the like. The A5
is made to take anything you cn throw at it without risking a shorted-out
hopper. I can't recall the last time I saw a tourny player crawl through *real*
mud, let alone accidently bash his Impulse on a tree.

the only fucking reason you say tippmans a-5 is for scenero games/woods
play, is because it fucking looks like a gun and is bulky and black.
i hate mother fucks that say tippmans are made for woods play. its so
not true. its just a regular gun that has mad recoil. sounds like a
fucking shotgun i used to own one. and you cannot take it apart unless
your good at putting back that tinyyy spring that pops the **** out
after you unscrew all 8 bolts just to get on the inside. its a shit gun.

also it doesnt shoot far at all with the stock barrel. its made out of
tiny peices of metal pushed together. it is not smooth or shinny on the
inside. therefore it doesnt get its max distance.

I'm sure you have lots of video of you testing both markers side by side to
prove that the Imagine somehow shoots "farther" than the Tippmann?

What kind of shotgun have you been shooting?

Only an imbecile couldn't figure out how to take one apart/put it back
together.



I've only been playing for a few months, and I have no trouble at all
recognizing what a retard you are. Now go sign off your Webtv so that your
mother can get back to her soaps.

Wow. I'm usually the poolite one around here, but--and you can quote me on
this--Jesus, FUCKING CHRIST you've got to be the dumbest sumbitch on the face
of the planet, short of causing yourself brain damage by beating yourself in
the head. And I'm not sure that would make it that much worse. How about you
listen to some common sense and some people with experience, mature a little,
and come back when your balls drop. We've already got Major, Grifter, Phelps,
AND Jeff, we don't need another twelve-year-old mongoloid that doesn't even
know how to use a real computer.

No, it's because it's made to take the shit from trees and dirt and shit you
find in the woods. I don't care if it looks like a gun, or what color it is.
It's made to take shit, it's made to keep working, and it's made to shoot
right, and keep shooting. It's because it's NOT made to turn you into a
paint-spewing freak, and it's NOT made to compensate for the player not knowing
where the **** to point it.

>sounds like a

What kind of shotgun? Do they MAKE 30 guage shotguns? Every shotgun I've heard
is pretty fucking loud, even compared to a Tippman.

It's a few allen bolts. We all know how to put in the allen wrench and turn
them. Well, most of us do. Chinese toddlers get paid two cents an how to put
little springs in things like that, and appearently you're the only person here
less intelligent than a Chinese toddler.

Again, simple physics. Try thinking this through before listening to your
friends Bubba and Billy-bob shootin' cats from the porch. Any paintball of the
same weight, moving at 300 feet a second, goes X distance. A ball shot from a
Freak or Pipe system will go the same distance as if you fart it out of your
ass at 300 feet a second. I'm assuming that shouldn't be too hard, considering
that's obviously straight and loose enough to let your brain fall out somewhere
along the road.

Yeah. Okay. Back to the meds. Just got tired of 'net morons that start spouting
crap instead of letting intelligent people do the talking.
It felt good to get that out, though. Sometimes it sucks trying to be polite to
everyone. :P
