um a 14" barrel...what kind of barrel? What brand?...That's not very specific...Flatline will get you the most distance if you play woodsball...A lapco bigshot is a cheaper barrel which will give you more accuracy...Give us more info!

Nobody ever suspects the fun police!

He originally posted this in "Which Gun is Best"
This is a post about barrels, therefore I posted the signal so the mods could put it where it belongs so people(like yourself) would be more prone to post in it. Any further questins? Dont ask.

2 of my friends had flatlines and liked them for about 2 weeks, then they hated them and sold them, so i would go with a 14 inch Progressive or Tear Drop Smart Parts barrel or if u have the money to spend go fot the All American or Freak.

saying "I want a 14" barrle" is the same as saying "I want a car."  Please be more specific.

Just shoot yourself and save me the trouble.

the flatline barrel is the best for woodball because it shoots long distances. however if you play speedball or hyperball, i would get a 14" lapco.

It all depends on how you like to play on those rec courses w/ the  flatline you can sneak up and chop down some people out of their range and then leave before the can get in range. Nice stuff

If you decide against the flatty, go with a 12" or even a 10" especially if you play mostly speedball, you won't be disappointed.
