UMS vs. Tippmann

Hey team. Wondering what the difference is between the UMS Flatline and the Tippmann made one for the A5. I know the UMS is based on the m98 barrel, but other than the obvious (length) are there any differences in them, like performance wise? Gracias

Re: UMS vs. Tippmann

You hit it, the longer 98 flatline out performs the A5/X7 version. I've heard it is more accurate. UMS has sold/modded a lot of 98 to A5 conversions. Bad news is Tippmann has stopped selling 98 Flatlines.

Pumbaa, doesn't Tippmann now sell a different version of the FL for 98Cs? How is it performance-wise, if you've seen it?

Re: UMS vs. Tippmann

it's shorter, like the a-5 x7... it's a "quick thread" design.. so i'm assuming that it's probably the same in terms of functionality.

Re: UMS vs. Tippmann

I hear you have to aim just a tad high for the ball to shoot level for the UMS flatline, like in the apex.
