Well I have some cash to spend and I was wondering if the following would be good choices.

Bullet drop

lapco Bigshot(What sizes do they come in?)

Victory Board for my Halo B  (I might want to slow it down to 17bps if I'm not hitting 20bps.)

madman spring kit

and maybe some sticky grips

Any recomendations are appreciated.

I have never handled a bullet drop, so I can't help you there. The Bigshot in 14" is a great choice. I have not seen the huge benefit in spring kits, but some people swear by them. Stickies are a good cosmetic upgrade and feel great too. If you don't mind the price, then they really are a good upgrade.

 You should always get a new barrel first because it makes a huge difference.

I already have a flatline so now I want a barrel that is good for speedball and other stuff. That is also the reason I am getting a drop forward so then I can have a woodsball/speedball gun. Anyways I will buy all the things I posted at once., so its not like I am buying them at different times.

 Well the Flatline is pointless for speedball because you don't need the extra back spin. The Lapco bigshot 14" is an excellent choice for a speedball barrel.

Big change guys!!!! I got a moneyload coming in and the shop that I go to has connections to get a brand new E-Bolt. I'm going to take it. I'm also going to get my tanks anti-siphoned. What do you guys think?

I'm going to keep the r/t, just in case.

Is there a safe way of connecting an e-bolt with a drop forward(one that actually looks good)?

if u got money to spend get a Freak Barrel Kit its one of the best barrels out there. heres some of the prices $159 - aluminum, $189 - stainless steel and that comes w/8 inserts. but it u just want the barrel and 1 insert its roughly $94 - $100. but what makes the freak so good is having the 8 inserts so if u buy a freak get the Kit. heres the website for the freak check it out www.smartparts.com.

My DM7 and PM6. :)
