68BPS In Full Auto
35BPS in Auto-Response Mode
26BPS in Semi

There are a total of 7 modes:
Full Auto
Auto Repsonse
Semi
3 Round Burst
6 Round Burst
9 Round Burst
Semi+ Mode, which means once you start shooting at a certain speed it goes from Semi to Auto Response mode automatically.


Real speed 60BPS on F/A before paint soup, the marker was in the 70CPS range.

The body is aluminum, but not cast like their previous guns. Weight is comparable to an A4.
User interface is an improved LCD system.
There is a tourney lock for semi-mode.
Uses a traditional noid/ram set up instead of a spool valve.
Hopper system IS self contained, so there will be no need to buy a HALO or Q-loader to put on top of the feed drive adapter.

Um....WOW. 68 bps? Crazyness. That one hopper every 3.5 secs.

I had hoped the A5 would be a tourney gun, then I held and dry fired one and realized it is too freaking long and it had some crazy kick (as opposed to a 'Cocker). IF Tippmann can get this gun SHORT enough, then I expect good things. The first would be tank like build quality, but if it high end electro there is some lee-way.
Please do this right Tippmann!
