Man after numerous times of going online to track my shipment it finally arrived! Everything came in one big box which was nice, but right away i went form being Exited to feeling a little burned! some of the stuff looked like it had been used and repackaged. I looked at the mask and even though it was okay it felt like it should cost 5 bucks. The barrel however made up for it, it was very nice and sturdy i was a bit stocked about it! samething with the expansion chamber. the gun car stock was cheap and flimsy something i know i will have to replace soon. there where no instructions on how to put some of the stuff on so i went online to look at videos for some help. the bag that comes with it …. NO comment. i wish they would show you the inside comes with 2 velcro patches to stick suff onto and thats it. BUT the actual gun itself did come in its original box NEW and i cannot complain about that. I am Exited to be able to upgrade my gun and be part of the A5 club.. haha.. =)

Although Tippman makes a quality gun for the price, this was a complete disaster. I ordered this kit for my son who is 14. it came with no assembly instructions. Took us about 2 hours to assemble. Filling the CO2 Tank for 6 bucks we found the unit to be defective and it wasted a complete co2 tank. Then when it was returned I was charged a rediculous restocking fee becuase the item had been opened. Cost me $40.00 in shipping to and from amazon.com. I would only purchase from my local sportingoods store. It may cost a few dollars more but I now no that in the long run would have been much cheeper. The mask is not very good and doesn’t work if you wear glasses. The parts/upgrades are bulkey and cumbersome (once you acctualy figure out how they go together) and they leak co2. This item is not for begginers. This item will cost you money in the long run. How will you know if the item is deffective until it is assembled? Goodluck with your return.POS
