Apparently you've never used a CMI Tru-Flite barrel with straight rifling, whinch when shot kills spinning of the paintball almost completely allowing for a extremely acurrate shot.

I'm voting for this Poll because It serves absolutely no purpose towards the strive for better paintball ideas.

Because I can.

I know a stupid idea..... using cows as bunkers. I've heard of it happening :)

Also, rifled barrels arent stupid, I know people who use empire twisters and they work better than my smoothbore CP

i agree with pepper balls, the prisons are now using Pro-carbines with N2 and pepper paintballs and they shoot in the chest and the pepper spray goes up into the persons face, that would be horrible to use, and it would waste alot of time

My vote went to the different sized and shaped paintballs... i mean, honetsly, its hard enough to try and match paint to your barrel as it is, and adding MORE sizes and crap, well wouldnt that just be great

That is the worst and the dumbest idea ever. Paintball bayonet, knives, swords, flamethrowers (pssh). Add some more tear gas and use some mad martial arts skillz. That would be so much fun. LOL

Rilfed barrels is most useless, thats like putting a round ball trying to get its center of gravity to stay the same with pressure on it.
