Depends what the diametre of the barrel is. If you have an apex already in your possesion just try the tape mod.

The Apex tip needs either a special Adapter or the ever popular Tape Mod to get them to work with certain barrels.
If your barrel has a "muscle break" the Apex will not fit on it. Lapco makes Apex ready barrels as does Palmers Persuit Shop and I believe some of the SpecialOps Paintball C serries barrels and the J&J ceramics. |

Apex's don't screw on. They come apart in halves. Apex Barrels and adapters have these grooves and notches where the barrel claps on.
Look at the ends of these Apex ready barrels. see what I mean.
