rate the A5

[Tippmannator]

i would like everyone to rate the A5 on a 1-10 scale and not be biased just b/c u have one. i personally would have to give it a 10/10 b/c of the price, reliability, accuracy, mods, and durability. its a marker that can grow with you as you progress in the sport of paintball.

I would have to give it a 9/10. Reliability, price, performance, and the numerous upgrades and mods for it make it one of the top markers in my book. Can't say its perfect but for being near perfect I give it a 9.

I would give it a 9/10 just because nothing is perfect. But fore the price you pay for it its unbeatable.

10/10 because of all of the things previously posted PLUS

~MADE IN THE USA!!!

You should add a Poll to this so we can see all the results real easy!

But for me, 8/10.

[camo-optional]

8/10 for me. Best performance for the price. Great upgrades but some of these are where the cost can go up. Built to last and take a beating. No way would I trust a space gun to take the kind of beating my tippy does. Easy to field strip and repair. 1 point off for the quality of the ratchet in the cyclone. This should be fixed and come standard. flatline is an option only availble on a tippman.

8/10

performs great, its a tippmann, so reliability isnt even an issue. pulling a couple pins to get to the internals is awsome. its like a 98c on roids.

[SEAL DEVGRU SWAT]

9/10.

Great reliability, performance, power, and durability.
Unmatchable prices and can go against high end scenario guns.

Like somebody else stated, nothing is perfect. This is near perfect.

i give it an 8 because the gun itself is pretty good
however it is the aftermarket parts that make it a 10

[MisterMister]

Ill give the gun an 8 because its above average quality, has a billion aftermarket parts available, will last forever, is more durable then average, the Cyclone feed is an AWESOME idea, and it doesn’t cost THAT much. However, it does NOT deserve a "10" since the gun isn’t "perfect".

The trigger pull could be shorter, semi-auto fire is slow, the marker could weigh a lot less, the finish isn’t that great (I have cut my fingers on rough edges and the like), the stock barrel isnt even par for the course, plus other things.

Anyway it's a very solid gun that’s more then competitive with other markers in and above its price range plus it’s the Mustang GT/Honda Civic of the marker world in terms of its "modability". 8/10 seems right for this marker.
