Looks nice so far. I would suggest adding a fake supppressor, a picatinny riser and a sight to give it a sniper rifle look. I don't think you can add a mag kit with that particular foregrip. You're definitely off to a good start though.

thanks i like ur idea of a riser nd a sight
but what about a new barrel

[jungle_rich]

Replace the barrel. I have J&J ceramic, cheap and accurate!

i had my A-5 for like a month, and currently i have a 14inch progressive barrel, which i found real good, not too loud, pretty accurate, and i got it new for 40 canadian $.. i also have a car stock, a remote line, and a 45mm red dot... the next thing i'll try to buy is actually an R/T or an E-grip

Nice starting mods, and go definetely with a new barrel, i got more or less a fifty percent more shots on target and a further efficacity (not a further range, but at a further distance, my shots will still be accurate.)

btw, you could do the clicky pen spring mod, and the other q-tip thing, costs nothing, material easy to find, and works nice, especially if you have a r/T

try looking on the forum for those easy mods

I would alter the air system so that your remote hooks up to an airthru stock, instead of the remote to tombstone arrangement.

Get an X7 hopper too, lower profile and offset.

Other than that, up to you. Internal polishing and TechT mods are a good idea, always.

[x7isnotmyfriend1234]

thanks for the advice
what does internal polishing do exactly?
sorry if it seemed like a stupid question im a noob

[The Unrealist]

Internal polishing removes the overspray from the factory painting process and gives a smoother inner surface for your rear bolt to slide along. This leads to less wear on the moving parts. Many people who do the mod report, among other things:

Better gas efficiency
Increased velocity
Lessened recoil
Smoother cocking
