How a Tippmann A5 Works

This is an animation video of how a Tippmann A5 paintball marker operates internally. The X7 blowback, 98 Custom, Alpha Black, Project Salvo, and Carver One are all similarly designed and can use this illustration. I hope it provides a foundation for a basic understanding of the marker. I’ll be using this as a starting point to help newcomers understand tests that I have conducted involving the marker.
