Which barrel are you getting the Tippmann sniper barrels or that 21" barrel? I would recomend against both of those. If you want a good barrel you can get a flatline if you want the range. If you don't there is also the J&J ceramic which is good and dosen't cost much. If you do a search in the forums or look at one of the sticky posts you can see what are some good barrels.

If everyone says that it's a crappy barrel, then it more than likely is just that. Expect crappiness and you won't be dissapointed. However, as long as you use paint that fits the barrel you should do okay. I hear they are better than the stock barrel, just not by much. Plus the Tippmann Sniper Barrel has a really cool muzzlebreak on the end of it that milsim players like. Check into the Lapco Bigshot. Just got a 14 inch today, that thing loves my Marbs and Evil paint. Like five minutes ago I just painted the hell out of my backyard.

That is a very unwise decision, I wouldn't go with a 16 inch either, and going for looks is a bad idea.

The Sniper Barrel is jus a name and it only performs like the stock barrel and the only difference is what Plentifullballs jus stated.

I would stick with the Diablos you bought then, and if it stops working well, change what paint you use.
