Special Ops A-5A2 ForegripSpecial Ops A-5A2 Shorty Grip

Special OPS is proud to offer four versions of our A-5a2 foregrip for the Tippmann A-5. Extremely tough injection-molded plastic will not break, even with heavy abuse. All A-5a2 foregrips use the same mounting location as the stock handle. Due to popular demand we offer three versions depending on the setup you would like to run. All grips come in black. Colors are available in Duracoat finishes. Call a customer service representative to see a selection of available colors.




A) Cut out for front reciever fin but requires you to run our tombstone and mill your tombstone breech. This version works best with our airthrough buttstock or if you wanted to mod your own buttstock with our airfittings to make it airthrough like ours you can.




B) This is our most popular model. It bolts right onto a bone stock Tippmann A-5 and accepts, both, the front "fin" and the "bottomline".

It also requires you purchase a Special OPS tombstone, which also invlolves milling the tombstone breach. This allows you to run the air through the grip and anywhere you need to route it. This was our original incarnation.

For over six hundred and fifty years, civilized man has busted his gourd figuring out the best ergonomic shape and balance for a gun to point and shoot accurately. During all the time, the outcome of wars and lives depended on how easily a soldier could shoot his rifle or machine gun. So designing the perfectly-shaped firearm has consumed a lot of human design time. Oddly enough, though, most paintguns borrow nothing from these carefully evolved designs. Rather, compared to a military rifle or a hunting shotgun, most paintguns roaming the fields today are awkward, imbalanced and ergonomically clunky.
