Honestly for the barrels I would say none of them.  You should go with a nice 12" Lapco or J&J barrel.  The flatline is picky with paint, I am not an apex fan, and 16" on the front of an A5 especially is quite a long barrel.  As for singapore I have no clue.

Here is a link for the single J&J.  They are normally 30ish for the single and up to 100 for a full kit.

If a barrel attaches to a specific paintball gun, which is made to fire and operate using a specific sized paint logic would dictate that the barrel for the marker is also made to use the same sized paint (otherwise the product would not work, or be effective in its use).

Sorry  Iwas reffering to the elite kit.  It is usually around 100 and has 3 lengths and 5 backs.

As for the pack, it is up to you. If you want a remote, go for it. You do not need one.

I personally prefer the remote.  I like the balance it gives me on the marker.

How is the J&J better than the Apex?  Just money wise?

It is more accurate.  The apex adds distance but sacrifices accuracy and the J&J gives you excellent accuracy.
