ive seen that thing in action before, and was actually just talkin to someone about it on warpigs forum. if you want my oppinion: i hope that is imediatly and completly banned from all tournament play and from most commercial feilds. i think that this barrel removes even the last hints of required skill in this game and will be a big step towards ruining the game we hold dear. thats what i said there and still believe it now. once one team begins using something like this everyone else would be forced to do so as well in order to be even remotely competitive, and if we are all goin to be using barrels that can shoot around bunkers then we might as well just go line up in an open feild and shoot each other napolianic style. this would not be the first time that the sport has had to regulate technology, and it won't be the last. but this regulation would only be a good thing because this sorta tool is bad for the sport. thats my take thanx for your time. --------------------- -=Team Unity=- Thanks to our Sponsors: www.countysports.com www.paintballinvasion.com www.delhobbiespaintball.com Quick Shot Paintball Chaos Inc.

Quote Hmm I think u have point there.... It seems to be a lot of fun with that barrel but is it really a good thing to have??? Do we really need that to have fun ??? For me it is just another peace of equipment to pull out money from our pockets. It is something to think about. --------------------- ^(o!o)^ |

i dont mind spending money on new gear or something to improve my game and help propell me as a player to the next level, but this is just bad for the sport. what would happen if you had a whole team of guys shooting something like trix' or egos with these barrels. there would be no way to stop them from wioing out oppsoition in a matter of seconds, its just not a good thing. some one wants to play wiht one in the woods with friends i guess that is one thing, but other than that i think these things should be banned and forgotten. --------------------- -=Team Unity=- Thanks to our Sponsors: www.countysports.com www.paintballinvasion.com www.delhobbiespaintball.com Quick Shot Paintball Chaos Inc.

It didn't look very accurate....but I guess "accuracy by volume" is key with it. --------------------- |

Yeah, it doesnt look accurate.Im not really convinced about doing the curve shots and drop shots.I think its hard to do and not accurate.You have to consider the distance and the amount of curve u put in.Im getting for the flatline effect, compare it with my o'l Flatty.I also heard a lot of possitve feeds from my a5og.net group.I hope to get it before this weekend. Ill keep u all posted how it works out. --------------------- |

Anyone who learns how to arc can shoot just as far with better accuracy. It looks like when I took my velocity screw out of my Tippman Pro-Am (how many remember those). --------------------- |

Yes, but if u play woodsball Flatline can shot throu tree canopies etc. Not for speedball. But some people r just not into it and some do.Old arguement. --------------------- This post was edited by jgacs (10-25-2005 22:52 GMT, ago) |

no even arcing a ball you can not out distance a flatline. there is no end to the humour that i find in the fact that when it comes to the long shot my tippman beats out my impulse, outococker, and new matrix. the flatline may not be the most accurate barrel in the world but it does have the longest shot. --------------------- -=Team Unity=- Thanks to our Sponsors: www.countysports.com www.paintballinvasion.com www.delhobbiespaintball.com Quick Shot Paintball Chaos Inc.

I finally got it Monday!Yeah, I know 1 day short Very dissapointed.What makes it more dissapointing is that I think its awesome and I could have twice as much kill during the last game!And not to mention brag it to every1 .IMO i think its better than my Flatline.Its lighter, quieter and most of all more accurate!!i only fired about 10-15 rounds cuz i dont want my neightbors to call the cops  Cant wait to try it out!Watch out!! BTW, anybody wants to buy a used A5 Flatline?  --------------------- This post was edited by jgacs (11-02-2005 03:02 GMT, ago) |

Yes i like it better that my Flatline.Its more accurate,quiter,lighter, not picky with paint and easier to clean barrel breaks than Flatline.However the hook shots and dive bomb shots r hard to do.It takes a lot of trial and practice.I bought it for the awesome flatline effect which shoots ur paint straight with much extended distance.Very useful for woodsball/Rec play, absolutely not for speedball. I havent really battlefield tested it yet though. Cons? Well i think it looks ugly and barrel breaks are harder to clean compared to a regular barrel. --------------------- |
