is this a good setup for a first paintball gun?

i have played paintball before and am tired of using rental guns (haha).
so i thought of getting my own gun. and i wanted to know if it was a good setup.

1. Tippmann custom 98 (http://www.tippmannparts.com/Tippmann-98-Custom-Platinum-ACT-E-Grip-Package-p/5304.htm)

2. J & J Ceramic barrel 14 inch (http://www.zephyrpaintball.com/product/PB-JJ-CERAMIC9814/J_J_Ceramic_Tippmann_98_Barrel__14_Inch.html)

and basically anything else i could need. and preferably a good hopper for the custom 98? a durable, and one that can hold roughly 200 balls, and fires 15 give or take 2 bps.

thanks

Yeah, that's pretty good.

For the hopper, check out the Invert Reloader. Should be enough for your needs. If you want something a little faster and have extra cash, get the Invert Halo Too.

If you haven't ordered it already, try to order everything from the same place. You'll save money on shipping and there's a better chance of getting everything at the same time (depending on whether everything is in stock or not).

Tippmann A5 or 98 custom platinum?

I'm new to paintball, going to get my first marker. I had my heart set on a new 98 custom platinum package, but when I thought and realized I would be fine with used, my options opened up and I'm not sure which one to get. I like the ACT, picatinny rail, and the "easy access" features seemed ok but not really a selling point. In my ignorance I thought the 98C had the cyclone feed system, and that seems like a very good addition, but right now is about the only reason I'm considering the A5. I would like to shoot at medium/long range, so range and accuracy are important to me (the firing speed of the cyclone may be unnecessary?). I was also going to buy the flatline barrel, but I'm open to suggestions for other upgrades as well. My budget is $300 or under.

The Tippmann 98 custom is a good starter gun. The only real difference in the A-5 is the cyclone feed which you can always upgrade to later if not needed right now. Will cost you about 15 to 20 dollars more that way though. The cyclone uses more air is the only con of it. Just really depends on what you want. Stocks, Response trigger, Egrip, Remote line, Co2 tank, Nitro tank, Double Trigger, Expansion chambers, sight rails, sights. You can pretty much make a Tippmann anything you want it to look like so......
