Hey I just went and paintballed for the first time and went out and got a custom 98 and now I want a flantline. I asked around and I was told that the flatline is too long to clean and wasnt that good of a barrel please write and tell me the best barrel to get. Because I got so shot up with the loud standard one..

flatlines are personal preference, some hate some love.  its a very...touchy barrel.  it has to be babied while cleaned, and cant be shot while on an angle or else ball will fly off course.
The desire for polyester is just to powerful.

Flatlines are good , specially if you play woodsball, in heavy cover , thats where they shine , but just about any barrel is better than the stock one that comes with the 98C . do some research , and searches in this forum , narrow it down , according to your pocketbook and preferences and style of playing, then ask us which barrel .

Also , you might find interesting this site , it has a few videos on barrel lengths and accuracy . webdogradio.com
