Good Points: Great gun, can't beat it.
Bad Points: I would only say that the 98 custom looks a bit dated next to a tippmann A5, but where i play all day on site with my 98 all i ever see is A5 owners trying to fix there cyclone feed systems! They're poor! The standard barrel is too short and accuracy isn't great, a 14" barrel has to be the first thing to up-grade to.
General comments: This Tippmann Model 98 Custom is one hell of a good marker! I have owned my 98 for three years and play in local woods and at monthly walk-ons at my nearest paintball site, this gun has never jammed or failed to fire, i have fitted a Tippmann 14" pathfinder barrel and a Tippmann 'E'trigger set on full auto. Make sure you buy one with ACT (Anti Chop Technology) I can soot all day, on average 2700 balls, and have NO ball breaks in the barrel. With the 14 " barrel accuracy and range is very good.The Tippmann 98 now comes with a 2 years warranty too! The 98 is so reliable just take it out of your bag and just shoot all day long, non of this fiddling about rubbish! 'Mr. D'

The Tippmann 98 custom is good for woods ball. Its really fast for a gun like this which is great. There are no bad points that I can think of.

The choice of the field rental.
Cheap nowadays via ebay. many great upgrades.
I have 10 VARIATIONS. reactive trigger, drop forward (makes the marker short and compact) folding stock, apex,
Easy to maintain.

Is only for woods ball. The position of the hopper is great with this Tippmann Model 98 Custom. The bad points are that the trigger semi auto feature, theres too many parts.

It's the best gun I've ever owned and I've had a worrmachine and it chopped balls like crazy I've broke one ball in my tippmann and thats it. It also shoots very accurate if you get the flatline barrel and other barrels. so I love my tippmann and it's the best.

I have got a bt ak47 barrel on my 98 custom and the accuracy and distance of my marker has dramatically increased, which is definitely my favorite upgrade so far because it does not just look cool it increases the performance of it as well. I also have an expansion chamber for the intension to get more shots, but i have also found that it was much easier on my o rings, and helps prevent velocity spikes. If any one does by this gun i definitely would suggest these upgrades first. My next two upgr ...

This gun is like the m16 on the paintball field.The durability and trigger action are good. The barrel was the only problem I came across.

I hope this review has helped anybody decide to buy or not buy this gun.
I hope my choice of waiting 1 year before writing this will benefit others.
I would recommend this gun to any beginner who wants something to play with but also wants a gun they can upgrade
I will add more to this review as necessary
Good Luck

I used one of the Tippmann Model 98 before. I liked how accurate it was. I recommend buying this gun to start off with someone who loves to play woodball.
