Soft Paddles Tippmann

i want to buy a Tippmann a5 but not sure about the setup?

I have played a few games of woodsball but i have always us the tippmann rental guns. I am looking at stepping up my game but i don’t know what set up to use, possibly getting:
Tippmann a-5
response trigger
cyclone feeder
with lapco soft paddles and ratchet
flatline barrel or 16″ straightline barrel (dont know yet)
Zero kick hammer
stock (not sure about the make yet)

thoughts or suggestions about this or another setup that would perform well in the woods would be greatly appreciated
will be using compressed air
also want to use a double trigger and a tech t hair pin trigger kit

response trigger is a must, as well as the double trigger kit. the double trigger will easily have the biggest impact on how fast you can shoot and its cheap.
Just a suggestion but if you do plan on getting the response and double trigger you might want a regular barrel instead of the flatline because they are more likely to break paint at higher rates of fire.
I prefer a 14 inch barrel, any longer then that and you don’t really gain any real accuracy you just waste more gas and that combined with the cyclone, response trigger, and the A-5 it self is a bit of a gas hog can be kind of bad, so i would just get a top of the line 14 inch, stiffi’s are my brand of choice, but if your really all about accuracy you can get a 16 inch its just my opinion from the barrels i had.
Im sure the zero kick hammer wouldnt hurt your performance but even the A-5 has pretty much no kick, no paintball gun does but that could just be because im more used to shooting real gun.
For the stock i would recommend any collapsable stock, or any short stock in general. I had the g36 style folding stock and after a couple games the stock just stayed in the folding posistion because when your trying to work the gun around bunkers the stock just gets in the way and its too much of a hassle to switch back and fowrth under fire, but i have an m4 style collapsable now and its much better, i just keep it on the shortest posistion and you still get the accuracy and stability of having a stock when your hanging back trying to pick people off, and when your up close its small enough to not get hung up on your gear or limbs and force you to expose more of your body just to get it around a corner.
