Description
It's been out for a while, but nobody else takes the time to really write a quality description about this gun. For starters, the Tippmann A-5 is more durable than even the legendary Tippmann 98. Outlasting time itself, this paintball gun will eat gravel, mud and the worst conditions you can throw at it for breakfast.
But in case you have to be even
better, you can supercharge it with any one of the numerous options than
Tippmann Sports offers. This particular Stealth model comes with the
basic features of the Tippmann A5 paintball gun, but just a few more....
An
observant fellow like yourself might notice the large thing near the
front of the gun? What the heck is that, you ask? It's the patented
Cyclone Feed System, an
integrated force-feed loader
that virtually eliminates chops completely! No need to spend an
additional $120 for a force-fed loader that requires batteries, all you
do is just... pull the trigger. As fast as you can, up to 15 balls per
second, this baby will keep up. The secret is how it diverts just a tiny
bit of air from each cycle to turn the cyclone feed around, perfectly
timed with the action of the internals. There won't be excess pressure
forced on the ball before it gets pushed into the chamber, and the
cyclone feeder is smart enough to give it just the right amount of
pressure so it doesn't smash into the far side of the breech. Believe it
or not, this integrated loader is also much lower-profile than any
other feeder system on the market! (well, at least out of the hoppers
that actually work, so let's not hear any Q-Loader Commandos piping
up...)
The Tippmann A-5 is also easy to clean and maintain with
its no-tool field strip feature. Forget the days of carrying around some
silly allen wrenches (ever tried to disassemble your paintball gun with
your gloves on?) and fumbling with them as you're taking fire. You can
practically clean the gun on the run! (it takes practice, but it's
possible)
