Tippmann A5 2.0

I’ve been working on a solution for my paintball marker so I can have the best of everything.

  • Large (and heavy) compressed air tank mounted off the marker so the balance is normal
  • Small CO2 tank mounted on the marker for stability and back-up air source
  • Relief valve to remove tanks without destroying o-rings
  • Lots of knobs and dials, because, well, this is me we are talking about, right?

So here is the prototype:



I still need to work on the mounting, length of the hose, and I’ll have to paint it so it doesn’t shine like a chrome bumper, but I think this should work!

    The KC shop was a very good resource, back when I had access to it! No, all that stuff came from McMaster Carr.

    That’s all good. I just ordered a new hopper & will be set to full auto.

    Now all you need to do is add some petrol and a torch to the front….
