Out of those choices I would say Freak, more money but I think it's worth it.

I have the 12" Broomstick and the 13" Snapshot for my A-5.
I can't really see a difference between the two in accuracy or noise. Both are high quality barrels. I would recommend either one.

Lapco snapshots are very good and they shoot well, I think it takes
small bore paintballs. I hope you are happy with whatever decison you
make!

yeah the teardrop is better than a bigshot. The bigshot may shoot just about any kind of paint but your not using cheap paint [as in wal-mart specials] in your A-5 right? If not then a teardrop will shoot is very well.
Footnote: I have shot BLUE STREAK paint in the teardrop to see if it shot and it shoots surprisingly well! NOT reccomended though since it is such horrible paint

Proven by who? Last time I checked, a freak barrel was way better than a bigshot. If it wasn't, why is there still a demand for freak barrels? All American 2 peice barrels are a good choice too. The SP Shocker I sometimes play with has one and it is one of the best[I honestly like teardrop better  for the $$$] barrels I have ever shot.

i dont care about the price its the performance of the barrel, and i think im gonna go with the teardrop =)
of course my flatline is awesome, its just that when i play speed ball, i dont need that kind of range.

Save your money and get the bigshot! My friends has a bombstick and I have a lapco bigshot. They perform the same and his cost way more!
