A Kid's Review
I would like to say one thing before I start, WHY IS EVERY REVIEW YOU MAKE ABOUT AN ITEM YOU ALWAYS GET AT -christmas-? I think you are just either a spoiled brat because I read another review of yours where you got an Xbox360 for like $800 at the Christmas of 05. Anyways you say "the flatline is chopping up my paintballs" well it might be you have too cheap of paintballs because yes with the flatline the chance of balls breaking are greater.

Reviewer: A customer
Once again we have a person saying the paintballs keep breaking in the barrel. Simply BUY BETTER QUALITY PAINTBALLS!!! Its not rocket science and no one is out there to keep this information hidden from you so stop complaining and start TROUBLESHOOTING!

Thanks for reading and personally I have heard good things about the barrel from people who arn't stupid but that doesn't mean it is because of their opinion that I think this barrel is a good gun. Also please don't say this review isn't helpfull because I'm only doing this to help spread the word that some people are stupid with their reviews and the people who say the review isn't helpfull are the people I comment on. 5 stars

"Great Upgrade!!"

This is the best barrell I have ever used! I took it out of the box and installed it. It is kind of hard to install, but it is worth it! It shoots AT LEAST 100 feet farther and is a lot more accurate than the 32 degrees Whisper barrell that I owned before this. I would reccomend this barrell to anyone who owns a tippmann. 5 stars

"Great Barrel"

The flatline barrel is very accurate. It adds 100 feet to the range of your gun. Its hard to put on the paintball gun and the only thing i dont like about it is part of it is plastic. Its a really good upgrade for a tippmann 98. 5 stars

"Do The Homework"

In order to properly make use of a flatline barrell system, u have to do the homewrk. This upgrade is ideal for WOODSBALLERS and SCENARIO players where distance and shooting thru tight spots is important. DO NOT get it for speedball and complain about breakage. Spend the $ on expensive paint because u need a hard, dry shell w/ small bore size to maximize effectiveness. Not like a normal barrell sizing where you want a close match of bore to ball. Besides, cost is only relative to how much paint you need. If you're accurate, you'll need less shots, the cost of paint will balance. A crono and expansion chamber are almost mandatory b/c when you you it locked in, u want it to stay locked in. (Settings/Sittings wise) This set-up will allow u to effectively use a BB Gun scope! Me: 98 Custom, Expansion Chamber, Flatline, Daisy Scope. In the woods, NO GUN compares. Thats the bottom line. 5 stars
