Amazon.com Product Description
Mean with maximum firepower, the high-performance Tippmann A-5 with Response Trigger paintball marker features Tippmann's patented Cyclone Feed System, which force-feeds paintballs from the hopper into the chamber. The faster you shoot, the faster the Tippmann A-5 feeds paintballs--15 trigger pulls a second fires 15 balls per second. The A-5 is fully customizable to enhance performance, and can be field-stripped and reassembled in under 60 seconds with no tools. It features a mechanically driven response trigger that allows for 15 rounds/second air-assisted firing, all-aluminum die-cast receiver for durability and a new, more durable black paint finish. The front cocking knob allows for a fully enclosed receiver. Ball-breaks in the hopper are virtually unheard of, and misfires due to misfeeds are equally rare. It's fully compatible with either CO2, compressed air, or nitrogen. Other features include a 200 round wide mouth hopper, 8.5-inch stone-honed barrel, and .68 caliber receiver with open bolt blow back.

 Very good gun November 12, 2006
3 out of 4 found this review helpful
This gun is very good, but has a few problems. First the problems, the gun is easily field stripable and takes only minutes to disasemble, but re-asembeling the gun is a much longer endeavor. The trigger grip does not easily fit back on to the body. Also, the stock grip handle for the hand that is not shooting is plastic, unlike the rest of the gun. I suggest getting an aluminum handle, it's cheap. The stock barrel is decent, but only with certain types of paint. I play at a field with a field paint only rule, so I looked into an aftermarket barrel.
Ok, now the pluses. This gun is great. The response trigger is definately worth it. I was playing against mid-level tournament markers and I was holding my own, although I do not suggest this gun over a tournament marker. Also, it is extremely durable and sturdy. The cyclone feed system eliminates the need for an electro-hopper, which saves money. The other thing is that it runs on much cheaper CO2, while tournament markers are turning to expensive compressed air. Lastly, this gun is frightening, it looks intimidating. If you can spend the money over the 98 or the Custom, than buy this gun because it is one of the best wood and screnario gun around.

One of the best amateur paintball markers on the market. The best bang for the buck!!! (Highly recommended to get an air
hose kit as opposed to mounting the tank on the gun). Unbelievable accuracy, especially with the flatline barrel kit
The best for the price October 26, 2003

Tis is really the best you can get for this price. My friend has one, and he says that he has never even seen a better paintball gun. The price is really the only downside I see to this item. I have looked everywhere for a gun up to these standards, there aren't ant, at least is stores. It is very durable and useful. If you can afford this gun, I say go for it. It really is the best.
