Medina's multiple A-5 setups

[Medina]

Here are the setups I run with:

MilSim Speedball:

12" Lapco SnapShot
Ricochet R5
SpecOps MP Mag w/ Stabilizer
Lapco Bottom Line Mount
Lapco Drop
Dye 45/4500
JCS RVA
Maddman Spring Kit
E-grip
Hogue Handall Grip
JCS Dual Trigger

I never really liked drop forwards before but I play speedball now every 2 weeks (because its real cheap) and realized I definitely need a drop playing the game. The Lapco drop is the only one I considered because of the look it gives the A-5.

I've been thinking about getting another Palmers reg (male) to replace the mag kit when I play speedball. The front grip would be replaced by a UMS R.I.S. Mk II Mount. This setup would allow me to hold the marker closer to my body. What do you think?

Woodsball 1 - Broadsword

Apex Barrel
Stock A-5 Hopper
32* Remote Line
JCS MP Fixed Stock

The Apex owns in woodsball! Although I have to make sure the Apex likes the field paint.

Woodsball 2 - Heavy Gunner

Lapco Snapshot
Lapco Machine Gun Shroud
JCS Stock Folded

I like this setup sometimes because the Snapshot is sooo accurate. Folding the stock allows me to take better aim.

CQB Setup

Awaiting: 3" End Game barrel, and the UMS Grip Plug

Note: Sorry for the bad pics. I just took the pics really quickly last night because I was bored. I'll retake them soon with a better background.

Nice setup, especially the first, loving the SnapShot...Ill prolly be gettin one soon.

[Medina]

Thanks, the Snapshot is definitely my favorite barrel. Then again I've only shot with a stock barrel, a Teardrop, and an Apex. The Apex did real well in the woods with Diablo Midnight but did poorly in speedball with Zap Cryptics.

I went thru 2000 rounds of $50 field paint with the Snapshot and it shot ropes! It was the first time ever I saw accuracy like that with my A-5. Mind you I was still breaking in my brand new reg so the accuracy can still improve.

I like the setup alot, but do you get crap form other speedballers about the mag?

[Medina]

I actually get a lot of compliments and questions about it. I've been going to E-Jam, an indoor speedball field, quite regularly and most of the speedballers like it. What I explain to them is that the mag kit houses the reg, and that I take off the folding stock to save weight.

nice looking gun. i have been waiting to see pics of the mp mag to make my mind of up on gettin one. unfortunately i just wen tshoping for my gun and didnt get the mag becaseu i saw no pics of it until now. o well christmas is coming maybe my girlfreind will get it for me!!

[MNewman15]

I see that your Mag to Drop went nicely....it looks good and its not busy at all nice work ;D.....btw thats quite a big mag u got there

[Medina]

Hehe, thanks.

I've got more toys coming in and hopefully my last setup. I ordered a black powder coated PPS brass barrel w/ no porting (I like my gun loud), a UMS Apex adapter, a SpecOps A-5A2 foregrip for MP mag, a SpecOps A-5A2 stock, a PPS QEV kit, and a DOP Pro-Seal.

Modding never ends!
