Matter of preference imo

J&J = cheap and accurate

Apex = looks and range

I prefer the J&J.  You could always get an Apex for it in the future too.  Or a Lapco Big Shot with the ready tip on it.  All of them Are great barrels but I swear by J&J.
Stay low, run fast, and hope that paintball doesn't hit your...

wow.

Wouldn't believe it if I hadn't seen it. Even with duty and shipping charges, I would have still saved 40-60$...

thanks for the link

is the m4/m16 shroud in metal or plastic,

and how does it compare in size or quality to the alpha black one,

im not really interested in the apex but if the shroud is of a good quality i might get it :P

also the ak47 apex shroud from bt is metal, wood or plastic?

and stupid question, would it be possible to mount a bt ak47 apex shroud on an alpha black, I'm pretty sure answer is no but i gotta ask :P

not sure about your last question but the shroud for the bt 16 is plastic, its a little longer than the stock barrel, and its a better barrel but most are from the stock barrel IMO
