Question What should i do?

I do not only own autococker's, but i also own a tippmann A-5. It is one of my favorite guns that i have ever shot, But i honestly need a new barrel. I have been haveing a lot of truble when i aim because i have the car stock. And because i have it, and when i am playing and also have my mask on, i cannot look down the sight. because my mask gets in the way of me doing it. Right now my mask is some sort of j.t., I like it because i got a new lense for it when i bought it and i have worn in perfectly. So should i cahnge my mask or my stock? I know that a dogleg would solve this, but i do not have half that much to spend right now. There was a alternate option that i had found on youtube. Here is the link, YouTube - Borg-Tech: Pimp your Tippmann: stock Type 2(A5/X7)

I was wondering if it would be possible to do this with a dog leg stock. But i don't know. So i am asking. Can Anybody help me?

Yeah, do that and then smash up your entertainment system with it. Personally I have always preferred the factory tank position. I know it's not "mil sim", but form follows function in my book.

what about a raised sight rail? If this is out of the question then also consider going remote with a gas through stock. Still if that is not an option go back to the tank as a stock. Its better to sight than it is to spray.

Get a flex mask or get rid of the stock and use the bottle as the stock.

The other thing that i am afraid of is that if i make the dogleg from wood, it will be not only be complicated to make, but also afraid it will just break because i will make it to thin. And i do not have any type of metal to do it with. I don't even have the stock but plate any more.

T stock it. Paintball Product | Paintball Guns | Gun Stocks and Blocks and Paintball Gun Packages cheaper, and if youre adventurous, can make a wood block to go onto it for shape

Get rid of the stock and just use a tank on the bottomline.
