u obvisoly play woods ball so i would not get the R/T or the e-
bolt because the r a waste of money and paintballs and then u
need an electric hopper shootong semi auto is fine. if u get
HPA then apalmer stablilizer or an expansion chamber is
useless but if u stick with c02 then get the palmer stabilizer it
gives c02 time to expand more and give u more consistant
shots. and the double trigger is just a comfort issue do u like the
single groove trigger or would u rather have 2 fingers on the
trigger

Palmers Stabilizer is NOT useless with HPA. It works with both co2/hpa and with HPA, it acts like a secondary regulator (since your tank will have one on it). So it will give you more consistency.

Look, please take the suggestions with a grain of salt.  Everyone who replies will be biased in some way.  The best way to find out what will work for you will be to try it out.  Ideally, if you can find someone who has what you think you need, try theirs and see for yourself what you think of it.  This will save you a lot of money and keep you from comming back to forums like this one and griping about something you bought and hated.

i'd say just go get an expansion chamber and response trigger with the revy and then go have fun. and if you start breaking a lot of paint because of the flatline, go get a Lapco Bigshot. they only reason i suggest another barrel, is because the 98 flatline is very unreliable. its not very consistant on accuracy, and its excessively picky on the paint you use. the big shot on the other hand....... now thats a nice barrel.

edit: i forgot to mention, if the flatline isnt treating you poorly (ie you arent breaking balls often and its accurate for you); keep it.  overall, my philosophy for paintball, only get upgrades if what you currently use is giving you problems.

Lapco is used for speed or woods, flatline is strictly for woods, and use the lapco as your back up if you are playing woodsball.

Around 45-50 bucks at most places.  They work great.  A double trigger will help with a faster rate of fire as will a trigger stop and replacing your trigger spring with a lighter one (ie clicky pen spring).  You will be able to achieve a pretty high rate of fire this way w/o the ebolt or RT.   I would also look at a HPA tank as well, there are many good brands crossfire, 3A, centerflag to name a few..

In the world of the blind, the one eyed rules...
