Has anybody ever used one of these barrels? i myself never have but i have not heard good things about them. i have heard that they put a spin on the ball that make it shoot like a roller coaster. UP and Down ~~~~~~ something like that if that makes any sense. I never recommend them or try to sell them to my customers. i usually reccomend the termanatior barrel. Any feed back would help thanx Speed

They are pretty good barrels. A lot of my friends had them on the M98s and they never had a problem. Ugly as sin IMO but whattya gonna do. Pain in the butt to clean sometimes too.
Ive never seen the roller coaster effect happen with any of the ones that I have personally shot, though I guess it could happen. Not worth the money IMO either. Seems like all Tippmann upgrades are becoming unbelievably pricey. |

very good barrel(from my own expiriences with the a5 model barrel) if the velocity isn't just rite around 265-275 the balls do tend 2 hav somewhat unpredictable "rollercoaster" type patters. flatline=range+accuracy

i had some guy at my field try to make his own flatline ,he took a stock barrel and just bent the hell outta it, nedless to say the balls went about 15 ft and that was about it mainly cuz his barrel was in the shape of an indy track

haha thats funny...i might hafta try that. but yeah ive never had any personal experiance but i believe the most rollercoaster effect you get is just a bit of up while its got strong backspin an then it goes back like a normal paintball(down)
an yeah its ugly. what can you expect? its for a tippman |
