Tippmann A5: Some Drawbacks
Just like every other paintball marker, the Tippmann A5 suffers its own setbacks too. One of those major drawbacks is the A5’s flat line barrel. What makes its flat line barrel not that good is that they’re very difficult to remove as the Tippmann A5 would need 2 hex keys of different size to remove the 3 screws required to detach the barrel; though this scenario are not going to happen on the field while still in the heat of the game. If you get paint in the barrel you’ll know it because your shots will start curving in random directions. Another problem is when it’s fairly new. By the first time you use the Tippmann A5, the remote line is fairly tightly coiled. It will stretch out a little over time and at first, you may feel a bit short with your shots. This marker is "heavy metal" when compared to smaller lighter speedball guns.
