+1 for Tippmann A5s. They're very customizable and a great all around gun for beginners and pros alike. Posted via RS Mobile |

Yeah A5's are very good beginner guns and have the cyclone feed installed already. Other great choices would be tippmann custom 98, tippmann alpha black and the Siera? All of which are highly customizable with many parts on the market.
If you guys are into woodsball or just plain tactical scenario games then those guns are very good choices.
Here's a pic of my set up! http://www.alphablackforum.com/forum...php?f=6&t=3160

In addition, alpha black markers aren't bad but if you get it make sure you buy a cyclone feed for it. (especially if you want to replace the hopper with a tac cap for a more realistic look). Alpha black markers are basically 98 customs lol

also got a 14" stiffi carbon fibre accurate, quiet and weighs about as much as a pen

First of all, have you played before? Get use to the game first then when your dead serious to becoming more of a consistent player; buy a gun.

I've played 3 times and my buddies plan on going several times a year. The thing that I really want to get is a mask but I figure if I'm getting a mask I might as well get a gun.

if you are looking into buying your own gear, I would suggest buying them separately. These package deals are generally crap. Tippmann Custom is okay. Mask sucks, hopper sucks. HPA tank > CO2.
I suggest going on craigslist and buy a tippmann a5. Customize from there depending on what you like.

Going to first paintball of this year. Finally the weather is looking good to play!
I find ambush paintball to be the best. Especially since its not so far out in the boonies.

*edit no one seems to carry stocks for the A5 at all anymore | Have a look around...
-Paintballgear.ca in Richmond and Coquitlam
-Badlands Paintball in New West
-PBL in Surrey
-My personal Favorite...CRAIGSLIST. Ive been paintballing for years now, been through almost everything. I have to say craigslist has never really let me down when it came to looking for parts.
In other news anyone here have a Tippmann X7 (Phenom or not) with a stock on it want to trade for my a5?

I just order off ansgear or hustlepaintball and have it shipped to PR.
I'm moving on the a speedball gun now though. Choosing between new gog extcy, new proto rail or used Invert mini or maybe a used empire Axe.
Most likely getting a used mini for the gf and extcy for myself.

Pretty solid. Usually the speedball phase comes after the woodsball. Id say go with the mini or Axe.
Personally im a planet eclipse fan boy! EGO or GEO! haha

playing with guys that have their own custom guns just isn't right.. lol
