Best part of the Apex Barrel is that you can "turn it off"...

Plus, you can take your favourite barrel (like a 14" J&J for instance) and attach the Apex to the end. So now you've got the Barrel you know shoots accurately and when you need it you can push the lever and get some extra distance outta the thing.  How can you go wrong with that?

I'm still back and forth on the ability to curve balls left/right and have them dive. It's weird, doesn't work quite as well as they'll have you believe and takes alot of practise...

I'm really digging the Apex I have on my Tactical ion.
If I attack, follow me

If I flee, kill me

If I die, avenge me
