She is plain and basic, but has been through a lot. My Kameleon 98. All stock but marker was in a historic flood and spent several days underwater. Got the marker covered in mud. Tore it apart, drained the valve and replaced the o-rings and detent and it’s running nicely now.

i have a thread on the rebuild, but not sure if it’s allowed.

A link to the build? That's a good question. It should be allowed as it falls under the rule "You can include a description for others to know more about your submission."

Man Scotty. Ice been really REALLY trying to avoid MOTM because Im a bitter old negative Nancy in my old age. But you've done a good job at making it interesting this year. I guess Ill cave.. Shooting this A5 has proven fun, and I think its one of the cooler tippmanns hitting the field in the current day. ( not cooler than Myrkuls poo build 98C)

I have a bunch but this one is my favorite!

Pro-Carbine

Freak barrel (hollowed out barrel shroud)
Some nice Velcro wrap on the shroud for the ol booger pickers to latch on to
Taso RVA with Madman main spring
Vertical adapter I beat to shit with tool marks to prove it
AKA Sidewinder grooved for my pleasure
DIY volumizer (Pepperball reduction fitting, Shocktech mini cocker VASA, CP gauge adapter repurposed, MSUS volumizer with end cap)
Psycho Ballistics trigger guard
APP double trigger
trigger work (TechT trigger pin, brass washers, and lighter springs)
AKA drop
NDZ on/off
SP wood grips
polished hammer
Valve work (Pepperball valve modified for additional blow back, TechT valve spring, and polished air channels)
Port and polished powertube
modified stock front bolt (u cup seal sealed to the back to prevent air loss)

Shoots amazing at a much lower pressure. Quiet for a Tippmann (still loud)

Still looking for a lightened hammer! I’ve prayed to Velcor a great many deal of times.

I love my ProCarb! That thing is sweet!

What’s the benefits of the pepper ball mods. Higher flow? I got mine shooting 280 on 800PSI so I’m super happy with it. Just curious what modifications are out there.

[FlightMedic938]

Higher flow. I can’t remember what the OP is exactly but I think it’s around 500psi shooting 270-280 fps. I’m sure if I ported the mini cocker vasa to match the reduction fitting it’d be lower. It’s not narrow or anything but there is room for improvement.

[The Inflicted]

Pistols only game, eh?

[Myrkul]

68 Carbine, HPA modded and freak barrel back.

[OpusX]

Way to under sell the banzai splash and app aluminum grip frame

[FlightMedic938]

Underselling HPA modded too Sensai! Let the boys know!

[Myrkul]

Its just a drilled out power tube, adapter fitting, and gasline plus a weaker valve spring and a polished striker. I also ramped the bolt in this and it has a metal feedneck on it, and a NIB Pro-Line Powerfeed and vert ASA in a box that I'll eventually install.

[Buff_phroggie]

Homemade LP kit, ebolt, printed centerfeed, CP on/off, nova lpr, 98 thread freak back, and deadlywinds upconvert tip.

[Buff_phroggie]

Honestly I have no idea what triggger it is. When I originally bought the ebolt that is what was on it.

[LightArmsJXF]

It looks like the ones made by Rufus Dawg but I can't be 100% certain as I've not seen one on a 98 before.

[RhoXi]

Yup it's a Rufus Dawg trigger. I've got one on mine 👍

[OpusX]

Tippman Pro-Am. Factory hard case, factory ported barrel, Taso RVA, zip-tie speedfeed brass eagle hopper, 3.5 co2 w/ Smart Parts on/off.

I’ll start by saying, I no longer own this marker (not sure if that disqualifies me or not, but I loved how it came out, so I’m showin’ it off!)

IMG_6476.jpg This was my TiPX. I bought it during COVID as a “fun” project. Fixed the leaks, did some upgrades. I taught myself to hydro-dip and dipped it (and did some hand painting) set it up for FSR, added an Exalt front block, ambidextrous mag release, and put a constant air adapter in it. It had a Lapco BigShot with Lapco fake suppressor and stainless hardware. I also shaved the loop off the back do the frame…I did some other stuff, but can’t remember it all.

Picture courtesy of Cunha. I bought this from him five years ago. I still have this, but can't get a current picture of it, so I'm using his. It's my 32 Degrees Tippmann 98 with JMJ Concepts Drop Forward / Trigger guard.
