Hmm. Well, a double trigger is a must, maybe a 14'' barrel of ur choice, either a response trigger or a e-grip, and a viewloader elec hopper.

he would want to "trick it out" so its better smart one! i would recomend not getting a flatline and getting a j&j ceramic barrel or a dye barrel for it also i agree w/ the double trigger but not the e gripb cuz i think fully auto has no point but to waste your paint i mean u only need to hit them once right? the r/t is a good idea.
and a stock&remote if ur gonna be a "Sniper"

Whats this about no sniper? I know its a long debate that is never gonna get solved, but my personal opinion is that there are. I use an armotech wg65 which is accuarte as hell, it really is. It can fire an par with a flatlilne. I could add a scope, but i really dont need to, plus im not a sniper. However, My friend is, he has a 98 custom with a flatline barrel and a scope. He doesnt have a problem. Granted, it took 3 of us, 4 hours to calibrate it originally, but he has a really, really accurate rifle now. Try telling him there is no snipers. He sits from a back bunker, watches, waits and when he gets a shot, he generally doesnt miss, cos the person he is shooting at thinks there are in cover, and he must be another person who doesnt believe in snipers... Go figure.

ok first no flaming about snipers ok.......its gets really old
second get a decent barrel.....a teardrop or a progressive are nice..l..if u have the money to shel out a ultralight
second a regulator......a plamers stablizer is u still are using c02 or a torpedo or w/e u like
3rd a dbl trgger would be good.....
also since u are trying to snipe a stock wont be a bad idea

i totally agree w/ andy i just didnt suggest the flatline bcuz it is sooooo hard to install and if u install it wrong u'll need a good squeegy to clean ur barrel over and over again

N2 if you have a place to fill it. I'm sure one of these fine people here at paintball.com will give you a link to a good site to get a cheap N2 tank (i forgot the link). I'm surprised nobody suggested that. Then a new barrel. If your short on cash, which you probably will be after N2, you can get a $54 Lapco Bigshot. Great barrel, great price.

First off, why the heck does every "sniper" or "sniper beliver" name the marker their "sniper" uses? It has nothing what-so-ever to do with wether or not they are a sniper. Secondly, just because a gun is accurate doesn't make it a "sniper gun" or the person that uses it a "sniper." Why do all these snipers have scopes and crap? They are useless. For one, its takes twice as much time to aim through a scope then to aim by basically pointing, and pointing can be just as "accurate" as using a scope if not more so. Scopes are used to hit ranged targets, thats why they zoom in. They serve no benefites in any type of paintball. Also, the fact that your bud conserves his ammo doesn't make him a sniper. Conserving your ammo or laying down lanes of paint both serve their purposes, but wether you do one or the other doesn't mean you should change your title, and especially not change it to "sniper." The fact that he can aim doesn't make him a sniper, why do you think the military sends you through training? To teach you how to tie your shoes? No, to teach you military tactics and how to shoot your gun and all that good stuff. Most of the things that are used in paintball to define a sniper all military personel learn in bootcamp. No, not snipers, regular ol' infantry people. Also, why the heck does everyone keep suggesting stocks and remotes to "snipers?" I'll tell you why, because they are trying to make their marker into something that no paintball gun can become, thats why. They are trying to make their marker what they are trying to make it so that they can become a "sniper." Which is not possible to become in paintball.

I have one tricked out! this is what I have on it. 12" katana barrel hard to get now tho. 2 stage Expansion kit, helps with co2 fluctuations so you have consistent shots. Dubble trigger. Sealed rocket cock side cocker, helps keep debris out of gun when low crawling. Rear velocity adjuster, used for fine tuning your shots. Responce trigger for when it gets close and gritty. last I have a star fire bolt, good for keeping shots strait too. Check tippmanns web site they have a few things you might want. also 888paintball is good too. O, almost for got!! I used my dremel tool too polish the insides of the gun, helps for friction of parts. B)

ok ill take the blame for this....in the tipmann forum on the top is a thread that is stickied post ti there.....lol
stealthyeliminator-
if a person is gonna attempt to longball instead of trying to get as close and shot (some ppl refer to this as sniping...i did because he did and i figured that would be the only way to not confuze him)..
tahts y i suggested the a "stock" for his gun....since he is gonna be shoting from a distance (longballing) a stock would help steady the gun for a longer period of time.......i did not suggest a remote line.....i think they are pointless also...
now like i said before stop wit the ###### sniper flaming....jeez

Well the one of the last dudes was wrong.You can't get an E-grip for a Tippmann 98 because if u look the setup is connected to the gun.To get an E-grip on one u could have to buy a new gone that came equiped with it on.

Ok, I've seen many, many, many 98 Customs, and here's what's my informed opinion is:
1. Barrel. J&J Ceremic's are one of my favoriutes. Smart Parts Progressives are great and Teardrops are almost as nice. CP's are great, but more pricey by a little. Lapco's are good. There's many, many options. I suggest 12 inches because they're long gun's stock and barrel length does NOT equal any better accuracy, just less shots per bottle at 285 fps.
2. Electronic hopper. A revvy should be fine, but I'd get a old Empire Reloader with the revvy type shells, instead. The Reloader 2 and Revvy are also a solid choice. The Evo 2 is too back heavy for a Tippy if you ask me, but that would work, too. A Reloader B and Halo B are both over kill, but I just might keep running my Halo on my Tippy because I just love Halo's so much and they don't even push past the ball stop.
3. R/T, unless you think you might get caught at a tournament with it. My Tippmann has never and will never see a tourney, so R/T it is. Good way to speed up the gun without always having to fix it. Simply set the R/T to max out the hopper and you'll have plenty of speed.
4. Double trigger. The GTA is fine, but I have a Toxic Performance double and it's sooooo much nicer having a metal trigger. I also much prefer the feel to the GTA.
5. Vertical adapter. You'll see what this is for with the next step.
6. HPA/nitrogen bottle. Make sure it's high pressure and carbon fiber. Crossfire makes some excellent options. At least a 68 in most cases, but if you play short games and are near the HPA fill a 45 might be enough. Bigger than 68 is gonna weigh you down and anything bigger than 88 you'll regret, trust me. See what the field you play at fills to. If it's 4500 psi, get a 4500 psi bottle. If it's 3000 psi, obviously get a 3000 psi.
7. Regulator. Now that you have a HPA tank you have a few more options, but the Palmer is still my choice here because it will work at the high pressure you need it to and you can always switch back to CO2 for play on a private field.
From here it's drops and such things that are soooooo personalistic I won't even touch them in great detail. One note on drops, though; bigger ISN'T better. I know is seems to make sense on a long gun like a Tippy to tuck the bottle down, but it kills your shouldering of the gun. I suggest a Pro Team Medium or comparable drop as the biggest you should go.
All the internal stuff is kind of a joke. Maybe a Pro Team front bolt and powertube, but that $25 could be used on paintballs, too.
That should be a good start.

let me tackle this one part at a time
first there is a sniper in paintball you can say all you want that there is not, but there is Everyone thinks a sniper is a ranged job, its not. end of story no arguments.
I agree about the accuracy of the gun and how to shoot not making it a "sniper" marker
Scopes are not needed, but a good red dot sight helps imensely when playing the roll of sniper. Your duty as sniper is to be stealth and near your opponents and to keep with the sniper motto "one shot, one kill" this truly helps with the red dot sights, anything with a magnification is a waste.
a red dot sight will help you especially if you are playing the sniper position, this has less to do with range, and more to do with stealth, read the article in my sig

There are definately snipers in paintball. snipers are people who hide in a bush or something that will cover them, and stay there for the whole game picking people off as the see them. they usually never move for the whole game. snipers obviously cant shoot as far as a real sniper but they have good accuracy and are patient. They are classified as snipers because they do the same things as real snipers. In real life snipers sit still for hours or even days, but in paintball it brought down to a smaller scale of like 30 minutes. they usually dont get hit either

You need to evalaute your budget, what type of game you want to play, and how effective you want to be.
I'm 50 [Vietnam Combat Vet] turned paintball "Sniper" I'm getting heavier & slower - but deadly. I don't do speedball (if I do - I sit back and put long range piant out to keep the emeny heads down while the rest of the team moves in for the kills - but doing this really draws emeny fire to me!).
All my Tipps came from the used market.... I started with a 98c then a 98 flatline (that I tricked out until I found out I was wasting $$$) to now the A5 flatline w/Egrip.
I went through a number of 98 barrells and read about affective usage. The over all concensus is "any" barrel over 16" takes velocity away from the balls which reduces distance/range. The long barrel that I find the best for the 98 is the CMI 16" Thunder Pig.... a great reach out and touch'em barrell! It is NOT a flatline so you will still need to arc the balls for the same distance a flatline gets - but it gets them out there!
Flatline is the ONLY way to go! For the value it gives you the most effectiveness for your $$$ - close in or long range - flatlines reach out n' kill em. But 98 flatline "requires" a modification to be consistantly affective - see my other posts.
I've had 98 Rocket Cockers and they look logical but the function doesn't add much to your gun. The Cocker plastic becomes brittle with age and cracks at the allen screw mounts - making them useless! IF the Cocker was all aluminum I'd use them otherwise it's a waste of $$$. See my other posts.
A5 Egrip is nice - but limited/fundementally flawed - until I get to add an external trigger control switch the Egrip has limited performance due to NO field trigger mode changing. Due to this poor Tipp engineering implementation - if I would have known what I know today about the Egrip I would not have bought it - the $$$ are not worth the SINGLE action feature. See my other posts.
Remotes - well I've had nothing but problems. The sliders leak like hell, the hoses/valves/connections leak, and when you come in from the field you have to go through a ritual dance to disconnect the hose and strip off the belt holding the tank/hose. I went back to the 20 oz tank hanging on the gun with a drop forward for balance - but this gets heavy. For my wife I put a 9 oz tank on the gun. I put a spare 9 oz in my belt as a back up. Oh I also use suspenders on my belt - more comfortable!
Stocks - don't waste your money. They actually reduce your affective performance but they sure look cool. You cannot have a mask on and sight down the barrel of a gun with a stock attached - it's just that plain and simple. See my other posts.
Masks - I wear glasses ---- ONLY Brass Eagle has a mask that accommodates eye glass users. None of the mask makers think, consider, or care about eyeglass users. I have a hell of a time with fogging inside the mask (thermo's and fans don't work) and my eyeglasees fog too. I've used all the anti-fog stuff and still no real luck. The extrenal fans mounted on the mask are so loud you cannot hear the emeny coming.
What is needed is a fan package that is mounted behind the users head/shoulders that blows a good rate of "fresh" air into the mask - the mask eye opening needs to be enlarged to allow easy on/off over glasses. This single issue has reduced my paintball experiances. When I start fogging I ususally tip the mask up trying to get a breeze to hit my chest/neck and bounce up into/under the mask - I have to channel my breathing blowing it down or it gets worse. So look for a GOOD mask!!!!
I have contact lens but I still need old fart reading glasses to see the gun in my hands - it's hell getting over 40, besides all the extra pains you get playing - just wait you'll see!
IF you want to mount any sight on a Tipp then look at getting a hopper that will allow you to use the site. Tipp gets an "F" on this issue! GET a hopper that comes to a near point facing the emeny - balls will slide off the angle rather than breaking on the hopper - Riccochet is better but the hopper fill cap is on the "top" and they are high profile. I'm looking for improved "low profile" hoppers for all my Tipps. The hopper is the single BIG item that gives away your position in a game - next is the "loud" Tipp signature discharge (that not much can be done to quite a Tipp).
Motorized hopper for 98's is a MUST!
Another lil info - for those Snipers out here - go to Walmart and buy the 2" wide cammy cloth tape and use it. The tape is durable, sticks well, and is dull - no refelctions! The cammy duck tape is notta - it has a shiny surface that reflects. I spray paint my guns/hoppers, first with flat cammy paint then add cammy cloth tape to barrel, hopper and other areas - killer cover!
Some experaince to pass on from an old fart that has wasted some $$$.
But beware of the old guy in the ghillie suite!

No no... If you really want to trick it out, heres what you must do. First, buy an e-bolt. Replace the chip with a chip from any of the high end guns, and then make eyes that go from that board to your breech. Im not exactly sure about the process, but I know that this is what the guys on Tippmann Effect do.

He sits from a back bunker, watches, waits and when he gets a shot, he generally doesnt miss, cos the person he is shooting at thinks there are in cover, and he must be another person who doesnt believe in snipers... Go figure.

barrel( smartparts freak kit), electronic hopper(evolution 2 hopper from viewloader), responce trigger(tippmann), hpa tank(68ci, 5k tank is good), stabilzer(palmer stabilzer), bolts(starfire bols are proly the best for a 98c)
umm thats pretty much it unless your looking to have your gun look just cool and you want it to look like a ak-47 or something and you have money to waist. but here are some websites that have the stuff listed above: www.paintballwarehouse.com, tippmannparts.com, 800paintball, 888paintball, paintballwarehouse.com, assassinspaintball.com, specialopspaintball.com

I didn't read the whole topic. It's too long and people are just arguing. But it depends on how much money you're willing to spend. Also, are you into looks or performance?
Regardless, I think the VERY first mod should be replacing that cr@ppy stock barrel. It's terrible. I highly recommend the J&J ceramic. Cheap and VERY nice. 12 or 14". Next, snag up a cheap HPA bottle used online. I just bought a 45cu/3000psi tank for $45 shipped and it has 3 years left on the hydro. This will improve your consistency thereby improving accuracy. Those are by far the best two upgrades you can do for accuracy.
Small upgrades I would consider a must. Double trigger with the pen spring mod. And the rocket cock II. Keep dirt and paint out of the rear bolt area. Ebay has em' cheap.
Speed is a little more expensive. Ebolt, Egrip or response trigger. You'll need a Halo B or Empire Reloader to keep up with them. If you want to go fast, it's gonna cost ya ATLEAST $175 for both.

First thing i would start out with is a barrel... a reallyl nice barrel is the freak jr and then you get get a front i would suggest a tear drop and then you can have a 12 and 4 inch and there both really good. Second i would suggest elec hopper - dont to cheap of a one i would get one of those 50$ halos - that will work perfect for you. next i would go with a drop forward to balance out the weight. If oyur going for some look i would get a stock - with my personal experience.. i dont think they help but they look darn cool -- before you get the stock i would get a double trigger - thse are the basics the rest is up to you.. a remote is you want to.. ive heard there good and that there bad.. i would get just c02 tanks and get them anti siphoned for about 15 bucks? and get a expansion chamber maybe? whatever you want..
