      As for the 98, with an e-bolt it can out shoot ALOT of guns. I will take an e-bolt 98 over a lot of popular electros. The thing is sexy.
      the problem with the cyclone feed, that I have seen. it doesn't handle brittle paint very well. because when you shoot it advances the next ball. but unlike the halo that is a nice slow push, the A-5 kinda wacks the paint really hard from the very quick action that the ram causes. if hte paint gets pinched a little, it gets crushed in the A-5, the halo will just stop.

        So... I had to fill up the time while my body "settled". THUS AO!!! WooHoo!

        (Added: I never DID get back to bed though. grrrr I normally get up and start work about 6 anyways and was up at 4. Then I had to bring my car to the glass company to replace the windshield and both door windows. And I JUST got back. What a nightmare!!!! And a wasted day.)

          I think i could shoot a stock tippmann faster than a stock classic mag anyday. Sorry but stock mags are SLOW

          Props to echo419 for the sig

            just takes a little practice....... I could do abuot 10 BPS on a stock AGD mag single trigger frame. M98s jump around like a 5 y/o that has been eating sugar. very hard to keep them on target.

              Good because that was too much information already!! I agree with Shartley and won't bother follwing the link to fight it out with them. I have a 98 which is a good marker and is really good to loan to friends that want to try out paintball when they come to the field with me. I hate, however, taking that thing apart. My brother has the A-5 with response trigger and that really is a pretty darn cool marker (that feed system is great). It all comes down, however, to feel. Mag maintenance is so simple and I like the feel of the way it shoots.

                    AIR valve > Tippmann CVX(or whatever it is called)

                    that should be reason enough.

                        Tippmann effect is the Tippmann sponsored team. They placed 9th at skyball. Pretty damn good team.

                                not to get flamed, but i wonder why everyone has a mag if they can shoot just as fast or even faster with a $100 m98. not that i don't have a mag, or think i should get a m98...i'm just wondering what's the point in sinking $xxx dollars in upgrading your mag when you can shoot faster stock on a m98. the biggest thing the mag has going for it, i think, would be the LX, and that isn't stock. again, i love my mag. just wanted to know everyone's opinion.
