	Barrel length is really a preferences thing. Basically anything between 8 and 14 inches. Barrel length doesnt really change your range at all, so buying a 21" barrel isnt going to do you any good, most anything after 14 inches just starts slowing down the ball. I dont own a flatline but have heard them and since they are unported they are loud. Not much you can do about that with them, the distance is greater, but I think you loose out on a bit of accuracy. Again its a preferences thing. I have a 14" Lapco bigshot, its loud and a tad long but its damn good quality and accurate. J&J make good barrels that are fairly cheap as well, accurate and quiet. All Americans from Smart parts are also a good barrel. Oh and just about any other barrel is more accurate than the stock A5 barrel.
	People who are organised are just to lazy to look for things.
