The A-5 is a semi- mechanized pneumatic paintball marker designed and produced by Tippmann. Its initial release was in 2002 in the USA. It makes use of an innovative latest loading model called the “Cyclone Feed System” which facilitates the marker to have a high speed of fire disregarding the inclusion of the aftermarket triggers or loaders. It is identified to be strong, economical, and modular.

Cyclone-Feed System

Tippmann A-5 uses a new model termed the Cyclone-Feed System. It intends get rid off high costing troubling hoppers and electric loaders.

Usual paintball markers feature a feed tube enclosed to a hopper/loader that both drips paintballs singly or force-feeds into the chamber. The Cyclone-Feed System is a lodging on the right part of the paintball marker. Enclosed inside the housing are two sprockets that are star-shaped. Paintballs drop from an open mouth hopper into the spaces between the spokes.

As the machinist fires, some gas from the prompter pull is pathed to a tube, which fastens a piston. The gas thrusts the piston ahead, revolving the form of the spokes and supplying paintballs into the chamber concurrently. This means that the speed at which paintballs are being supplied into the marker is dependent on the velocity at which the operator yanks the trigger.
