Tippmann Flatline Features: The Flatline Barrel System is the first production back spin barrel ever produced. The principle behind the system is Tippmann's newly designed slightly curved barrel, which applies centrifugal force to the ball, creating backspin. Not only does this system offer increased accuracy and distance but also offers flat trajectory for thick brush and canopy play. By minimizing trajectory of the ball and increasing accuracy, you increase the amount of targets which would ordinarily be out of range. The Flatline Barrel System adds 100 feet of flat trajectory GUARANTEEDFlatline and Car Stock need to be put on the gun, it has very easy installation for all 2 items, manuals are included for each product

 Nice Package - Great service October 12, 2006
Firstly, let me say that the staff at PB4LESS are exceptionally helpful. If you need any other items with your order goto their website and send them an e-mail before you order. They seem to have most things (which may not be listed)and can provide help and advice. I live in Europe and was slightly worried about delivery but everything went smoothly - about 8 days to France which is renown for having slow customs clearance.
Due to inability to make a decission I have a kingman MR3 aswell as the A5 - I need to write a more complete MR3 A5 Stealth comparison review later when I've used them a bit more.
Initial views are : The MR3 (also sold by PB4LESS) with the addition of a J&J 14" ceramic barrel is SUPERB and does 6 inch groupings at 25 metres - the standard barrel is far less accurate. The A5 kit here is easy enought to put together, took about 10 or 15 minutes- the included instuctions are clear and concise. The stock's pretty tight to get in but not impossible. The flatline barrel hugely increases the range - though so far the accuracy isn't as consistent as the MR3 with the J&J on - I think I need to try some seamless paintballs.
I was worried about the weight of the A5 after reading several reviews. It's about the same as the MR3 - which in fairness is also pretty heavy - just to hold they feel at least half as heavy if not twice as heavy as a standard Pilot. Much of the weight on the A5 seems to be the flatline - the rest of the marker is reasonably light weight.
At present I'd say if you need range - the flatline is the way to go - though maybe an apex on an MR3 would give you the same performance. If you want accuracy - the MR3 with a j&j. The MR3 also has the advantage of electronic trigger as standard and is cheaper. Some reviews on the MR3 mention that the electronics aren't covered perfectly by the cover - this is fixed my making sure the capacitor is seated in the grip correcly - then the grip sits flush.
Saying that the A5 seems nicely put together, is slightly less bulky than the MR3 and has the cyclone feed as standard....
Both markers have sights built in - neither are usable once you have a mask on. Out of curiosity I tried removing bits of mask a bit at a time to see how much you need to remove until you could comfortably use the sights (obviously you wouldn't want to do this to a mask you would use)... in answer ... all of it ... the fact that the goggles protrude from the face means you can't get in a suitable position to use the sights. If you need sights -which I'm not convinced you do (both markers seem to aim naturally)- then you'd need to put an offset sight rail on the A5 or a raised sight on the raised sight rail/handle on the MR3.
Both markers feel cumbersome and unnatural with the stock and a 20oz attached under the grip. Both markers feel superb once they have a remote installed. If anything the MR3 feels slightly more natural/ergonomic to hold out of the two as the forward grip on the A5 feels a little small.
Hope this answers a couple of questions and doesn't raise more than it answers ....
Adam.
